    They tell you to “make space”? What’s that even supposed to mean?

      It means let the fuckers know they can retreat from their extreme or misguided political stance and come back to a more reasonable point of view without consequences. It’s a variation of Sun Tzu’s "Build your opponent a golden bridge to retreat across”: if you don’t, they’ll fight you to the death because they have no other option.

      My problem is, however reasonably the idea, that’s a bit too rich for me to apply to imbeciles who turn their country into a fascist hellhole.
