We could measure it in the cost of treatment.
I mean, feel free to correct me, but if you found yourself seeking damages from someone who curbstomped your kid on account of all the harm it did...and that dipshit went "well..that's just like..your opinion..man"..you might curbstomp him.
How many teeth? How many pints of blood? How many broken bones? How many years? How much cost?
None of that is objectivity.
I don't doubt that you think it's wrong. But what's that got to do with the rest of us? You can't justify that it's wrong. There's a big difference between thinking it's wrong and objectively knowing it's wrong.
I know this sounds ridiculous but there are real world examples, slavery and abortion being the low hanging fruits.
