I understand what you're saying.
"Papers, please."
"Just do what you told, and we won't shoot you."
"Obey, if you know what's good for you."
"Comply, comply, comply. Or we'll hurt you and get away with it."
Trust me. I get it. Oh boy. Do I.
And you know, these little excuses? These weasely, squirming, pathetic, cowardly excuses? I'm sick of them. I like you, Quetzal, and you generally have your head on straight, but I'm finished having any kind of patience with "pretty please just do as they say." That's the wide-eyed, anxious, trying-to-smile fear of someone who's conditioned to be afraid. And I'm sick to death of that attitude. It's defeatist and appalling.
Amen to this...
