I'm going to say it again for everybody.

Benjamin Sisko is a... He's a military leader.

He's a relatively... Like, these are liberal people.

They are like traditional 90s liberal types that believe in freedom and equality.

And presented with the... The Alpha Quadrant is being invaded.

And the Federation is losing the war.

And Sisko decides, we have to force the Romulans into the war on our side.

And he's like, how do we get this evidence?

And he's like, let's try.

And then he comes back and says, there isn't any, but we'll fabricate it.

And then Cisco thinks they're going to fabricate evidence to trick the Romulans.
