Yes! Let them stew in their own grease…

how could they ever have an orgy that didn't end in a bloodbath? (see Madison Cawthorne)

Oh, I totally saw that coming

That's great. By in-fighting we can gain some of them on "our side" in time, as happened before, as they just can't be a part of what their party is doing any more.

I'm trying to fathom why magas like to fight so much. They are the meanest people and actually seem to crave fighting. Maga women are scary-mean.

Great, another unexpected benefit of Bluesky.

I thought the same thing!

I think quite a few people not only considered this, but explicitly said it.

Oh, many of us very much considered it. It’s one reason we wanted to see more people make an earlier exit.

Some group structures require outsider villains in order to maintain stability. Vacate the role, leave such groups to stew in their own juices, and things start to boil.
