I don't know jack about Star Trek but I'm happy to keep seeing these memes while I scroll 😊
SO. I lied. I cheated. I bribed men to cover the crimes of other men. I am an accessory to murder. But the most damning thing of all is that I think I can live with it. And if I had to do it all over again, I would. Garak was right about one thing, a guilty conscience is a small price to pay for the safety of the entire alpha quadrant. So I will learn to live with it. Because I can live with it. I can live with it.

To be fair The Chess is a lesson in why assassins are cool, hypothetically. If you have to regime change the enemy, sending a ninja spares the lives of a lot of soldiers and officials.
