There is something to building around a consensus on who they are roughly around the phrase “first cause no harm”

[throwawayacc2]

What is harm?

[bergenty]

Physical or mental pain and anguish

[stocknoob]

A lot of devout believers experienced mental anguish when hearing the earth wasn’t the center of the universe.

And yet it moves.

[bobsmooth]

So we need Big Brother to protect us from facts that will harm us.

[bergenty]

We need the government to protect us from a lot of things that can harm us.

[DocTomoe]

The next step then is the government deciding what will harm us, so we can be protected. And then you got a very nice little fascist country that runs perfectly, and the trains run on time to move all those harmful people away from where good people live. Out of sight, out of mind.

[bergenty]

The government already decides that. That’s what laws are. Why are you speaking rhetorically?
