Vice
Illegal is a strong word.
It means you're doing something that the government doesn't want you to do. You'd never do anything like that¸ right? Or would you?
It might be that some laws are... Misguided.
It's civil disobedience and a moral imperative to oppose those laws.
Gandhi taught us that.
My friends and I - we're here to help you make these difficult moral choices. We'll even provide you with a support network¸ if someone objects to your strong moral compass. And¸ hey¸ if everything works out¸ maybe all of us might come out ahead. Don't worry! We've got your back.
