The lesson here is not that you personally have the power to do this, but that it’s possible at all. Many communities have something or someone they don’t like collectively, but individually they will make peace. A person is smart, people are dumb.
I just really, really wanted to stress that going about it without training is a terrifying proposition that may get you killed. If I save someone from a beating borne of optimism rather than skill, it’d keep my mind at ease.
