What are some cases where the thing that you think some faction should have done to maximize their chance of winning is something that goes _against_ your values?

The two must diverge at least sometimes!

Why did they lose? Because they failed to conform to my preferences. They did stuff I hate. Had they conformed to my preferences, and did everything I like, they would have surely won.

The greatest and the most widespread fallacy in the world.

sometimes you gotta play dirty to win, but that can be tough if it goes against your values. it's a tricky balancing act!
