Don't get me wrong: This sucks. I'm not trying to downplay the things that have actually happened.

But the world hasn't ended yet. The more they try to unilaterally pull stunts like this, the more pressure they're going to get in response. It's not going to work out for them in the end. This isn't cause to despair; this is cause to push even harder, because giving up hope means giving up, and giving up means that nobody will stop it from happening.
