is "the tree of liberty must be ..." about bleeding "tyrant", singular, or simply general advice about survival as a thinking species?

Do you mean it is wrong that it is so, or do you mean that I am wrong because it is not so?

I refuse to climb further out on this twig, because you @optimism seem to think "we" has a self-evident interpetaton, in the context of "diistributed multi-member signature" CRDT politics, i.e.

articles that are posted aren't seeking dialogue
... and on GitHub there was no discussion either. Mailing list posts are more announcements than discussions.

We're never going to resolve any differences this way, but we shouldn't forget that we need total, exclusive consensus to stay whole. We can afford a whole bunch more forks, especially of this size, but at one point we will have to ask ourselves: what's left?

if a tree is designed to be "of liberty" in a way that codifies that you're either in or out, does "must" require any advice?

"We" is simply the body of people that interact with Bitcoin in this whole situation, that make choices towards what Bitcoin is and isn't. People need consensus to interact through the network, because if you disagree with your counterparty (also if this is a custodian) about the consensus layer, you won't be able to transact directly.
