Morality = Reciprocity.
Morality = Reciprocity. And it has to be. Moral norms are members of a portfolio (network) that may be reciprocal or not. Moral intuitions vary by the individual’s reproductive balance of reciprocity vs proportionality in the given set of moral norms. So whenever speaking of ‘morality’ which thing are you talking about? Ideal knowable (reciprocity). Ideal unknowable (anything not immoral and therefore irreciprocal is moral. What we mean is, what’s good? Not what’s moral?) Moral Norm (evolved market for prohibitions), Moral intuition (your bias given your reproductive and survival demands) – in other words, your tolerance for proportionality. Curt Doolittle

The question is not why are men bad, but why are we not able to defend against bad men – except that we invent means of defending ourselves more slowly than others of attacking us?

Access to political power creates risk. Democracy creates access to political power. Rule of law and monarchy denies access to political power and forces all of us to limit ourselves to seeking status in the markets.

EUROPEAN MARTIAL ART? IT’S WAR AND THE DUEL
Hand to hand is for poor people who have been disarmed by the state. Europeans use WEAPONS. Boxing is european because it evolved from the Duel…. https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=469870926943136&id=100017606988153
