The Nuremberg defence...
"just following orders" doesn't fly. If they are knowingly doing this, then the intent is harmful... Believing they are right in system that teaches people to believe/ think a certain way or not to think; Are they not victims too? It is like blaming the dog for biting when in fact it has been trained to what it thinks it needs to protect. But once dogs go around the bend, they are a danger to others.... I am trying to grasp this. It is foreign to me.
So it would be appealing to the rapist: to have any intelligent discourse on possible solutions... I get it, but it seems drastic... Its like a pre-emptive strike against thought crime... Making me a as big of a threat to them as they are to me. And the 2 wrongs do not make a right thing is going off in my head...
I am struggling with this.
