Hurting or killing Altman will lead to a more authoritarian, brutal crackdown and consolidation of power in the ruling class, it can lead nowhere else.

The only message you would send is it is ok for those in power to begin more openly smashing our society to pieces in the interests of keeping "everyone" safe.

Yes and there are WAY less of us when we resort to violence and intimidation because it fractures our clarity of intention and empowers the narratives of our enemies.

That authoritarian crackdown will lead to an even larger anti-auth response. The reality is that the anti-auths can see and raise any authoritarian escalation, just like France did ~250 years ago.

The ruling class needs to figure out how to step back from the precipice, and fast. Bread and circuses incoming.
