Hmm. Probably true. The more I think on it, the more I see a society as a society. There is no such thing as a social predator. Everyone is part of a society.

Hmm.
Probably true.
The more I think on it, the more I see a society as a society. There is no such thing as a social predator. Everyone is part of a society. If women choose to boycott a company's products because they are upset at that company's lax attitude towards women's safety or whatever, that doesn't make half of society social predators. Women are a part of society, they're entitled to opinions, as well as the agency to engage in freedom of lawful action.
The company doesn't seem a predator to me either, as all they are doing is taking lawful action to protect their revenue.
There really are no social predators here, unless I've misunderstood the term.
- randomdata 4y agoIsn't that saying the same thing using different words? It is not like the "social predator" is some kind of distinct monster that only has to be slain and then all is right with the world. It is fundamentally just people being people and the observation therefore. Even if in some hypothetical way the "social predator" was something that was to be attacked, that would merely make the attacker a "social predator" too, rendering the whole notion an impossibility.
- watwut 4y agoThe difference is in judgement in words. When you say "social predator", the implication is that the person is doing something wrong and are bad in some way.
