Which is "kind of" the reason we should be getting the military on the side of the people and not chasing them into the arms of fascism because they have nowhere else to go...
Like, fucking obviously man...
What you're saying is the reason I said what I said in the first place.
That is not the "only" hope, it's the most pain free "good" option. Saying because that option exists means we out all our eggs in that basket, is even dumber than literally putting all our eggs in one basket.
We can't just kick our heels up and hope this works, we work on this and the next 27 different plans that would sequentially be the least painfree while arriving at the "good" result.
I dunno, I'm just venting. It's fucking depressing that every comment is a choice between "too long no one will read" and "if you don't mention everything obvious, you'll have to later".
