Is long-term solitary confinement torture?
#25
RE: Is long-term solitary confinement torture?
Me and the Rev are a pair of anarchists, so I can see the deck he's dealing outta...

I see how it could work; but I've been stuck in big-picture mode, where getting there from here... it's a rocky road.

So I think of other stuff. Like Outland. ADC-Orbital 1 beta. Get to work, you criminals! Build us some low-orbital superstructure. Wink

Shooting people in the head has the personal advantage of knowing some people need a killing; but that is a moral imperative, and how would the society construct an ethical standard from such? It doesn't seem possible. Even if somebody was just wrong to me, odds are they're alright to somebody else. This is where I agree with Rev.

And I have known some fucks that are just evil fucks. When I considered technocratic anarchy, it was a simulation where I just moved shit around. People ain't gonna go for that kinda thing, but that seems to be the solution to all the problems; that people fit into a social dynamic, but there doesn't seem to be any other workable criteria other than morality. Which I got from vector atheism and the simulation of zero-state being "gamed" in the schoolyard...

I'm a psychopath from a dysfunctional childhood working on a plausible scenario for utopia for all mankind... yeah, there may be some problems with that algebra. Angel
