Can you explain where this feeling of yours comes from? I've always wanted to engage with someone who feels that retributive justice is actually justified, but not everyone is licensed to be so bold.

- uoaei 4y agoThat description also applies to your comment.
- kelseyfrog 4y agoRight, I understand that it influences your perception of events. What I want to understand is the mental machinery and inner psychology that serves as a basis for those feelings. Like do you feel a stronger sense of justice than other people? Some specific catalyst in childhood that you can look back on that influences this feeling? Something else?
- sib 4y agoWhy wouldn't it be justified? They are inflicting costs on the museum and museum goers (monetary and in reducing the quality of the experience). "This is why we can't have nice things..." They (and others) should be disincentivized from doing so.
- kelseyfrog 4y agoInteresting, I guess that means some people default to all actions are justified and then carve out exceptions vs others who default to unjustified and carve out justifiable exceptions? What's your null hypothesis of justifiability?
- ohCh6zos 4y agoPhilosophically, my stance is that all justice is retributive or it isn't just. In the state of nature I'm wholly justified in trying to kill anyone who tries to kill me. The benefit of a state is the ability to ensure justice happens even in the event I am killed.
