11. Rachel is a smart person but she still thinks the old rules matter.

It’s like she and many others have learned absolutely nothing from the past ten years.

It’s “impossible” to imagine he survives this? Really? Well, guess what? He’s not going anywhere and no one is going to do a damn thing about any of this. You can pull out all the military regulations and constitutional laws you want, they don’t mean anything anymore. Fascists don’t follow the rules, they don’t care about the laws, they do what they want.

Objectively, the rulers have played this perfectly. The only way out of this is by the People rising up and demanding action and they literally can’t because they’re chained to their jobs for healthcare and basic living requirements. The workers have the power but they can’t use it. Not without the whole country descending into chaos. We’re checkmated by our own comforts.
