?There Is No Peaceful Resolution?  Oh, And Happy Bastille Day! (July 10, 2023)

. . .

K          “There is no peaceful resolution.”

J          “No peaceful resolution is there.”

. . .

K          “Now what?”

J          “What now?”

. . .

J          “Do what everyone does.  Self-medication for the many.  Self-immolation for the few.  There is nothing you can do.”

K          “That is too selfish.  We need to unite the folks with the burning torches and the folks with the pitch forks in a common purpose.  They have been at war with each other for far too long and overlooked or disregarded the real enemy.”
