Ah, but I don’t care about the law I care about what’s right.
- avazhi 4y agoWell unfortunately for you (but very fortunately for me and I daresay the vast majority of others) we live in a society that at least in theory has respect for the rule of law. Best of luck with that attitude in your life, sir.
- s1artibartfast 4y agoThe obvious complication is that your opposition also feels that they are right. This begs the question of what are the appropriate Rules of Engagement for conflict. What do you think those rules should be and how do you treat the opposition? Different societies have come up various thoughts on this question. It is not hyperbolic to say that some societies have decided such questions by Force, assassinating and Exterminating people with opposing views. There is a wide spectrum between that and polite debate, and the Salient question is where the line should be drawn
- yucky 4y agoCensorship isn't what's right though, so you should applaud this.
- Turing_Machine 4y agoI'm trying to think of an example from history where the pro-censorship side proved to be in the right in the long term. None are coming to mind. Have you ever considered the possibility that you may not be, in fact, "right"?
