Come to think of it, that may very well have been why Carver goaded Kenny into killing him rather than begged for his life - it'd have been more humiliating for him to be maimed in front of his followers than for him to end up a martyr.
This got me thinking, you know what would have been a better revenge for Kenny to dish out on Carver instead of just killing him?
After h… moree shot him on both kneecaps, to just leave him there alive. If he lived through it, he would become one of the "weak" people that he seems to loathe so much, who need help from others to survive. He'd need help walking and all that stuff. He'd have to rely on his own community's kindness, and he wouldn't really be fit to scare them into submission anymore. Maybe that would have given him a different perspective.

No way, he would never do that. He's too convinced that he's better than everyone else. Troy seemed way more plausible, if there had to be a bad guy turned good.
Out On A Limb. Basically, Troy becomes more manageable once he's forced to be dependent on the group. He's a follower, not a leader. As other people have said, Carver simply can't stand being in a subordinate role.

Lol Negan could take Carver's camp one flip of the wrist.
This would never work because Carver would never accept himself as 'just a member'.
And the rest would never accept him as a leader.
That's actually pretty smart of him. Carver was manipulative 'til the end, it seems.
He was really bent on pissing Rebecca and Kenny off.
There's a fanfic based on that idea. It actually succeeded in making me feel bad about Jane killing him...
That sounds interesting. Do you have a link?

Um when quote please.
That's cool.
And the thought of Carver seeing Clementine as his own, kinda makes sense.
