obligatory PLASMA RULES GNOME DROOLS

You say we don’t have to just hope people don’t commit crimes. Let’s suppose that’s true. How do you plan to prevent them?

I haven’t made up my mind on this issue yet. Tell me why you’re right.

You say we don’t. A cursory reading of the source you cited seems to imply that we do. Obviously, then, a cursory reading of the source is insufficient, and you must have some solution that will prevent crime in the absence of judges and police officers, right?

You linked to this source, so surely you’ve read it and you understand the author’s position better than I do, right?

Well, in a society without judges, as the article linked proposes, I’m having a hard time seeing it any other way.

Okay, so if we’re not just going to trust that crime isn’t going to happen, how are we going to prevent it? I asked you that, straight up, and you said “I’m not going to give you something just for you to poke holes in it. I’ve dealt with your kind before.”

Lol nice try but I don’t have to provide you with an alternative for you to attack. You’re wasting youre time there.

“See, the thing is, I already know I’m right, so I’m not going to waste time by giving you arguments to find flaws in.”

I really, really hope I don’t have to explain why it being done by a state doesn’t magically make it better, in of itself.

…you mean why a system of justice that is held liable to a court system is not superior to a system of justice where people can just go after whomever they want? yeah, you do have to explain that actually

…and your proposed alternative is…?

I really, really hope I don’t have to explain why vigilante justice is a bad idea.

…so, what, we’re supposed to build an entire society on people’s inherent willingness to help each other and just trust that crime will stop happening?

Like mate, I hate to break it to you, but psychopaths exist. The entire problem with capitalism is that some people are never satisfied no matter how much they have and will do anything they possibly can to hoard anything that could give them an advantage at the expense of the group.

A stuffed crust pizza is only a calzone attached to toast until you cut into it. At that point it becomes sushi attached to toast.
