      I think they wanted to punish someone who didn’t need punishment.

      Furthermore, they didn’t have that available a choice. The choice was less harm or more harm.

      Because of that, their choice seemed to them like a choice to punish, but it was actually a vote for more harm.

      I don’t think they need to be punished for that. I don’t think they deserve to be hurt. In fact it’s one of the things I vote for. Less harm. Every time.

      I just think it’s sad, I don’t need payback.

        If you continue to allow people to do bad things with no pushback, bad things will continue to happen.

          Yes, of course - and pushback is deserved. They’ve fucked up and seemingly deliberately, out of a head-in-the-ass attitude. But there’s nothing to gain from hurting them.

          Actually, judging from their actions, I’d expect that hurting them would make them get shittier and I already know they have no idea how to direct their anger properly.

          The ideal situation for me is that they find some shame and sit with it and come back after they get their heads out of their ass.
