TRYING TO HAVE THE LAST WORD WHEN IT”S NOTING BUT MEANINGLESS DISAPPROVAL
Perhaps you will stop trying to have the last word as compensation for your failure to produce an argument and instead hiding under the lie that your disapproval has any meaning or value. It doesn’t.
INCENTIVES
When the opposition doesn’t care about you and your preferences, the absence of reciprocity ends the necessity of caring about the opposition and their preferences.
SCOTT ADAMS’ POINT
And that was Scott Adams’ point. @ScottAdamsSays
Reciprocity is the first principle of negotiation.
That’s because reciprocity is the first principle of cooperation, ethics, and morality.
And without reciprocity, we can only avoid, boycott (separate), or war (conflict).
Because the incentive to cooperate has been replaced with the incentive to disassociate.
And continued forced association replaces the incentive to disassociate, with the incentive for war.
