    What he did wasn’t noble, but it was for the good of the entire Alpha Quadrant. I don’t think it’s unfair to say that he was almost always on the “right” side of things throughout DS9.

      Yeah totally. The focal point of “In the Pale Moonlight” was when he told Sisco that he came to Garek precisely because Garek knew how to do sketchy shit like this, and that deep down Sisco knew that something like this was gonna happen with Garek involved.

      The thing the world “noble” in popular culture doesn’t use Machiavelli as a reference.
