@catileptic "Fight amongst yourselves" is going to be the dominant theme, isn't it?

@jbaggs it's going to be what we are validated into doing, seduced into doing

but we can also just not do it. we can not burn the witch. and i really believe we can all learn to not heed the siren call ^^

@catileptic Not burning the witch is sort of my baseline, as they're typically more interesting / educational to hang out with. They're also people, after all.

@jbaggs agreed ^^
