The same time the writing is brilliant. Because the irony is: had no one tried to stop David, he would never become the future David they're trying to prevent. In the very end all the circumstances that occurred that made David into the villain (and the reasons everyone turned on him) were a result of manipulation by Faruk. He planted seeds of delusion throughout the season. I remember he said something along the lines of "It's the beauty of the execution of the plan that makes it worthwhile"

Is David a monster? Yes. But all of it were results of Faruk. The amazing thing about this season's writing is NO full absolute Truth. As it said in chapter 11 "In the end, what is the sound of truth? Waves on a beach, the laugh of a child. Or perhaps there are competing truths." David is wrong, and so is his team for going into a moral panic and trying to burn David at the steak and so willingly take Faruk's word as gospel and not even attempting to fix anything. They're dealing in absolutes, which the future is not.

Wow. Wow. Wow.
At face value I was mad but this is just NEXT level writing and forethought
