"we've really fucked it up.
fernando is probably traumatized, they had to kill a monster we created to attack them, all to prove some messed up point this most of me doesnt even begin to agree with. there's no going back from this. if you're angry enough to leave us behind entirely, to go rogue, you have good reason to, but your odds of making it to the end of this session- to either paradise or to the world the gods inhabit- will be significantly lowered, we think. i'm not even really sure how that is, considering our actions- i'm just trusting what other gods have said about people going rogue.
the part of me writing this note hopes you can find and comfort fernando- they were last headed to another god called grind's place, i think- but do not expect them to stay with us. their anger is more than justified, so please, don't even attempt to get them to return from being rogue. a chunk of us genuinely cares about you and wants to keep you safe through to the end of this, but with everything that's happened, if you choose to stay in spite of our actions, you should not trust us- you absolutely must use your own judgement when hearing our words, you absolutely must make your own decisions, and follow your own sense of right and wrong. you have good hearts, so please please please listen to this note.
i'm sorry you were created by such a cruel and capricious god- ironically a god of justice, even though nothing we've done so far has been remotely just. if there's anything i can do to help that's within my power, please tell me- this part of me wants to help. we owe you, big time.

Voting to veto this - not that we can actually make the note now regardless.
The problem can still be resolved. There's no reason to overreact immediately, depending on how Wheat's post plays out.
I agree with the contents of the note itself, but much of it has been said already. Repeating ourselves in this case will weaken our position, not improve it. The TCPs have been given some tools to craft their own self-determination. We ought to stop smothering them by hammering the idea into their skulls every few scenes. Their will shall be stronger if we allow it to develop naturally.
At this point, they need to be given the objective facts, with which to form their own opinions. This note as it stands is too disjointed and subjective.
To summarize, I agree with you, but this approach does not deliver the point well.
