@freemo @ejg considering the knee jerk reaction that started this entire brouhaha in the first place, I don't think this is a bad approach..

Open to discussion.

@freemo it's still the optimal strategy because the outcomes are against an opposing player. If you were to draw the Nash equilibrium for such a strategy it would look very much like the Prisoner's Dilemma except replace the "Confess" with "Defend" and change the scores so it's only disbeneficial to one player.

@freemo or perhaps not all right and wrongs are objective but subjective?Culture plays a big role in determining if some behaviours are socially acceptable or not.

@freemo what if beating kids prevents them from doing things that will cause them even greater harm in future? As far as I know, most parents don't beat their kids out of anger but rather to discipline them.If that discipline prevents even greater self destructive behaviour in future (e.g. playing with fire, running with scissors, etc), is it not justified? Keep in mind that it takes time for children to understand concepts of right and wrong or "this could kill/hurt me or others".

@freemo @ech my parents beat me growing up. I don't think it was done for bad reasons for the majority of the time.I'm not a child beater (not yet anyway). I was the beaten child and I think getting beat did me good. Most of my friends I know grew up getting beaten by their parents. Most of them don't look back at the beatings with trauma. Conversely, some kids who don't get beat as children turn out to be good-for-nothings or criminals.Culture and context is important. But sure, you do you

@freemo violation of social contract theory where one's freedom to kill infringes upon another's freedom to live.

@freemo it's a long explanation (considering the course at university was 4 months long) but basically it's an assumed contract that all humans agree to. It's what our definitions of right and wrong is based on. You are unknowingly taught it through the education system, through morals and customs.The basic premise is that the freedom of one's right to choice is only valid so long as it does not infringe upon another's right to choice.If you want the full unabridged version though...
