What about the faction that believes the ship is taking on water and thinks that’s a good thing?

Exactly. You need a small-to-medium sized faction that runs around with drills, making more holes in the ship, either for the lulz or to irritate the side that believes we're taking on water.

Funny how, when I originally read OP's game, I thought he was talking about COVID response, but then realized he was probably talking about climate change. It's spooky how no matter what the crisis is, we seem to collectively respond to it in the same futile, guaranteed-to-fail way.
