- tssva 7y agoCan you provide a complete list of which immoral actions by one party do and don't justify immoral actions by others? Or is it if someone acts immorally any action is response is therefore moral?
- anoncake 7y agoNothing ever justifies an immoral action. If it's justified, it's not immoral. If your business actively harms society -- as advertising does -- complaining about extortion, which is merely a zero-sum game, is hypocritical.
