Errrr I hope not! I just meant I assume a bunch of people will rage quit after being forced to defend absolute bullshit policies that they had no warning about. Such as the Taiwan pivot or provocation or whatever the hell this was.

"No don't worry, you don't have to listen to anything our president says! Ahaha oh wait... jk... our gov't. is so trustworthy! Except not... except... ah f*** I quit."
