Each person will have their own personal preference to where that line is drawn, and they will not all be the same. That, then, in turn fuels the concern over fairness and equity, leading to more unrest.
In the end, more traditional forces can be used to destroy the target. The resistance is no longer there because the defenses are not unified.
AIDS/HIV almost never kills the host. But AIDS/HIV destroys the hosts ability to defend itself. Once that is done, a slight cold can kill. Don't worry about the cold, though... worry about the AIDS/HIV. It may not kill, but it makes it easy for anything else to do so.

To steal and bastardize a line from "The Handmaid's Tale". "Fair never means fair for everyone. It always means it will not be fair, for some." We are led to believe that everything is supposed to be fair. Yet the concern for fairness usually only becomes a problem when one feels they are the ones being treated unfairly. Or one is intuitive enough to realize that particular unfair actions will one day come to visit if not addressed.
We are indeed highly predictable. This makes us easily manipulated and controlled. We like to think we are smart enough to combat those that wish to enslave us, by using fore knowledge and intelligence. But intelligence does not prevent us from falling victim to basic human emotions, especially those emotions attached to primordial and instinctive reactions.
We are creatures of habit established by generations of conditioning. There are those that will be able to successfully fight back, but the numbers will be few.
In my humble opinion.
For every one person that read this post. About 7.99 billion have not.
Yet I still post.
