It was that way for me before and then multiple wars happened and it became so obvious how giving the opposing side ways to surrender is much more beneficial. This doesn't just apply to violent war, it applies to class war too, with the important caveat that they must be disempowered in the same way that you would disarm any enemy surrendering in a violent war.

For certain. Momentary indulgence must always, in a rational society, be superseded by the good of all. In the end it's self-care as well.
