what did they put in him?!Kim's high Volition skill makes him impervious to prying, Kurvitz says, as the detective can find out on occasions being met with Kim's brick-wall resolve. Kim often chastises these whims of the detective's, but will occasionally play along. The Lieutenant finds his new partner funny, says Kurvitz.

sssssdoes Kim Kitsuragi is commie?
hold on I'm not crazy! first piece of suspicious behaviours:he wears a bomber like the *revolutionary* aerostatic brigades did every day. he cosplays a commie pilot AT WORK because he admires them. the guy who's terrified of looking like an idiot.
(I think the circle symbol on his jacket isn't RCM related, nobody else has it, and if it isn't it must be about the brigades, so he even wears *that*s on his heart! or maybe it's a precint 57 thing who knows)
and he calls for an Ace's High, which "still holds revolutionary connotations" in Revachol;
second piece:
SUGGESTION - He still refuses to believe you subscribe to Mazovian socio-economics, but entertaining the thought has given him some measure of solace.
ESPRIT DE CORPS - Camaraderie even. For a second there he feels less alone -- but then the second passes.
the RCM likely comes from the ICM, maybe it could be part of the reason why he joined, deep down?
and his glasses are "diamond" glasses, which makes zero sense and they're actually diamat glasses, probably (dialectical materialist, like Khan's glassses in Sacred and Terrible Air)
I think all of this fits into him wishing for change and a better future (which means communism because the main writers are communists) but having resigned because it looks impossible, and about his repressed violent streak he must have because he's the Ignus "Warcrimes Grandpa" Nilsen / "Not Enough War Crimes" Ulixes of the Mazov/Nilsen dualship thing these six have
