Shadowman311 (npub1khq…6n2t) ultimately it's contradictory to be this pessimistic and still complain, because the choice he's setting up is:
a. let your enemies defeat you without even having to work for it
b. force your enemies to stress out and bang the table and do some work to defeat you
OK, no matter what you do, you're defeated (pessimism). The Irish are hopeless and can't develop a third option where they win (pessimism). But do you love your enemies so much that you would passively give the country to them? Do you want the fearless and shameless authorities to sentence the next child-stabber to some computer-based training and then release him to stab more children? What's so bad about some riots on the road to defeat?
