I think what this paper attempts to argue, distilled to its simplest form, is that revenge is not justified.
The act of tearing someone down purposefully, either with facts or non-truths, is almost always an act of revenge. Someone felt wronged by someone's current or previous actions, and they move to "take revenge." This paper essentially argues that no one is entitled to revenge.
- quotemstr 2y agoRevenge or not, it should never be illegal to speak the truth of a matter, on any subject. Facts are facts. Truth is truth. Withholding true facts only worsens our models of reality.
- blantonl 2y agoFacts, devoid of context, released with the specific intent to harm someone, should not be something someone executes on - argues the paper anyway.
