Hmm, talking about Water Margin, the dark side has twisted the vision of the 108 spirits. If you actually paid attention, these righteous bandits' most common target was food, which they used to feed those who came to them for help. While they did get the whole "corrupt Song dynasty" correct from the original epic, the dark side has failed to look past revenge and actually perform justice.
If anything, Mao's dream to make people lives better through food is a much better representation of what the heroic bandits wanted.
