Reductionism is so juvenile. Now do fake outrage that muggers go to jail for knifing someone while surgeons get paid: “eiteher it’s ok to cut someone with a knife or it’s not!”

Corrupt intent is the crime. We all know this. It’s embarrassing when someone rediscovers reductionism and pretends to believe it’s a magic argument.
