The only reason I'm resorting to violent metaphors is that our moral intuitions are usually more clear around those than around fairly recent societal constructions. Given the choice, I would rather be beaten up than subjected to any of the potentially life-wrecking legal threats listed in section 3 of https://www.eff.org/files/2014/09/16/unintendedconsequences2..., and I would think that this preference ordering is neither uncommon nor irrational. Given that, in what sense are the violent metaphors "too strong"? |
