Exactly. Right now we can't even be certain how many people actually believe and support the Prime Minister or how many people are just afraid to express it.

[ Scott's learned the hard way how easy it is to make false truths and malicious information go viral. Social media is a plague. It'd only be worse if people could only ever use Twitter. ]

We'd also have to find a sufficiently trustworthy vehicle to get the actual story to the people. We could hijack the broadcasting station, but I don't know whether or not they'd have sufficient faith in Rost to believe a leak from a rebel organization. Or how many people even know who Rost are.
