Yes, it sucks to be the one that dies, and Mahsa Amini wasn't around to enjoy the movement her death in Iran sparked. But the MAGAs think you're expendable anyway, and they'll look to kill you even if you're not toeing the front line. I'm not the best person to say that going out a hero is the best way to go, but you know, the goblin army is at the gates of Minas Tirith; we do what we gotta do.
