But I did answer it. That someone could be me (though it probably wouldn't be me, as I'm a pacifist, as someone on this forum says |

You are just one of these "someone should do something" people.
they always know the "right thing to do" but they are not ready to actually do it.
but it's ok, at least you made the effort to think about what could happen to "someone" who would actually do what you want them to do and suddenly there are consequences, and it's not that black and white any more.
“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”
