A contagious narrative backed by guns indicates weakness of narrative
- lmkg 5y agoTo the contrary: It must be a pretty strong narrative if it convinces people to commit violence.
- riffic 5y agoWell first of all, I would argue the force of law is a social contract, not a contagious narrative. My second point to make here would be if vehicle drivers stopped following road signs, they would be likely to harm other drivers and bystanders. We have stop signs for a pretty good reason.
