The Lakshmi arc
This arc......is just too much like recent happenings IRL.
Failed insurrection and not even a slap on the wrist for the attempt. Lakshmi better get more than a slap on the wrist,
if she isnt killed or at the very least imprisoned and the vex tech and FWC destroyed then what is the point in even having a vanguard?! Our character should just be a renegade at that point, i'm pretty confident were the most powerful guardian weve seen so far in the destiny verse so why are we not in a more prominent position to make decisions? We're always the one relied on to fix everything and kill all the bosses/powerful enemies. So it just seems weird that we wouldnt at least make our voices heard. I'm sure many people living in the city idolize our character for all the times weve saved them from destruction, so if we had spoken out against lakshmi in the very beginning it might have been possible to remove some of the interest people had in listening to her xenophobia. I get that its a 1st person shooter and letting the main character make decisions that could drastically change the outcome would be logistically impossible. However if i have to listen to one more monolouge from our cancer voiced exo, basically telling us how shes about to make a play for control of the city, and then do NOTHING to crack down on that shit, I'm going to lose it. Were clearly building towards something here and im just hoping there are actual concequences for lakshmi and FWC as well as New Monarchy.

"Insurrection", pfft, sure. The media uses words like that for click bait, politicians use that as their latest soapbox to keep attention off of their own failures. Also I wouldn't act against Lakshmi publicly. Rather I'd take her aside privately and set her straight about the dangers of using the technology of the Vex, the creators of the Endless Night, for anything due to the dangers of it all being a trap or the Vex manipulating the information without Lakshmi knowing. Furthermore, that her focus on Mithrax is shortsighted. If his Eliksni act out of line they are in the middle of an entire city of humans with thousands if not millions of Guardians. They're covered. Beyond that, that Guardians wielding the Darkness are being taken care of through various methods. I would add that using Stasis is much like her using Vex tech, using the tools and weapons of our enemies against them, though just like the Vex tech has many opportunities for calamity as in point number one. Finally, I'd let her in on the truth of the "song of the City" and how she may be unknowingly doing exactly what the Witch Queen wants, sowing division and disorder, weakening our position by drawing our attention away from her and the Pyramids and towards each other.
