Are you for real?

Let's go back to the original quote:

> For what it's worth, depending on the harms, a sudden total ban is not out of the question as being beneficial to humanity as a whole. It would just be disruptive to enterprise, boo hoo. We don't need to always treat bad actors with kid gloves.

How isn't that talking about “punishment”? What do you think the last sentence is supposed to mean?

You either have a pathological level of confirmation bias, or acute reading deficiency, I'm afraid.
