This is obviously very upsetting. But I’d also like to know what y’all’s answers would be to the question on this meme. This is not something I advocate for I’m going to be transparent about that, I’ve just noticed things like this a lot on the internet and want to gain some perspective.
IMO there isn’t much to discuss about. Hit me, I hit you back. I don’t understand why I have an obligation to take care of an aggressor who hit me first. I’m not saying immediately kill the other person but it should be at least equal to what I had to take.
It doesn’t matter if it’s a man, woman or even another species.
One exception: The person has obvious reasons reasons like alcohol or substance abuse and is not able to think clearly what he/she is doing.
My parents teached me to not hit people in the first place. This is also a very good strategy to not get hit 😉
Problem with the general philosophy there is that if that’s universalized so that everyone adopts that philosophy, and you ever have someone injure someone else where the injuree felt it wasn’t warranted, then the whole system goes to hell as each party feels like they need to do to the other what was done to them, and each just goes back and forth dealing out the other’s just desserts. At some point, for the situation to deescalate, someone is going to have to accept what they consider to be greater harm.
