This just covers the current crop of behaviors we can imagine (e.g. your weed example). But, as long as you have a society, you'll have/need some laws, behavioral norms and a social contract. Violation of any of these would be blackmailable.
- DubiousPusher 5y agoWe're talking about reducing the number of blackmailable situations not eliminating them. You're arguing we shouldn't put up, "don't feed the bears signs" because some people are going to do it anyway.
- unclebucknasty 5y agoNo. I'm arguing that as long as we have a functioning society, blackmail-able situations are virtually unlimited.
- DubiousPusher 5y agoRight and you're wrong.
