It is perhaps worth noting that all lawful societies fail (not from good, noble intent of the law). So, how?
- ruling class exploitation of the law--> state of oppression
- ruled class stops following the law--> anarchy
- neighbouring nation is unsympathetic to the law--> invasion
Then, play it out. What happens, when does it happen, how does it happen (who is this already happening for...)?
Actions have consequences, typically yours will have consequences unto others and yet, it can be tempered. Something that comes to mind is:
"There are good human beings and there are shit human beings."
- A butchered quote from a respected individual in my past.
Perhaps, a better, longer quote:
"There will be times when the struggle seems impossible. I know this already. Alone, unsure, dwarfed by the scale of the enemy. Remember this: Freedom is a pure idea. It occurs spontaneously and without instruction. Random acts of insurrections are occurring constantly throughout the galaxy. There are whole armies, battalions that have no idea that they've already enlisted the cause. Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward. And remember this: The Imperial need for control is so desperate because it is so unnatural. Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear. Remember that. And know this, the day will come when all these skirmishes and battles, these moments of defiance will have flooded the banks of the Empire's authority and then there will be one too many. One single thing will break the siege. Remember this: Try."
Keep trying, the good has already won but the path there is still undecided.
