Integrity is good, but there's no universal law dictating that it will always prevail no matter what.
That said - I guess - it's not surprising that most of HN (and hope that most non-ignorant people) would agree that a lot of states are way over the optimum non-integrity point.
(For example intelligence and counter-intelligence toward geopolitically important adversarial targets is probably something that makes sense, drone-bombing random groups of people because war-on-something hysteria probably doesn't.)
- pyinstallwoes 3y agoIntegrity reflects cosmos, thus order. The lack, reflects chaos. Congruent to universal patterns and thus laws one could argue that indeed, acting with integrity is a universal law of good. I’d argue however that better than integrity is what we try to ascribe and describe with the word love. To me it seems when one acts with love then every action is properly constrained, and most importantly acts of discipline; for acts of discipline without love inevitably become acts of abuse. Love is the constraint that trends towards cosmos, integrity, and that which is good.
