@ozymandias314 @MikeAnissimov @Johnwbh @drethelin ...wronged any students. You ever get upset at disrespect for teachers by students?

@St_Rev@simplic10 "try to keep them from hurting you" is a functional coping mechanism for authority though. :P -
@ozymandias314@simplic10 A false analogy from existing authority structures to normative internal values. -
@St_Rev@simplic10 Something like "humans have power structures, therefore it is correct to have power structures"? -
@ozymandias314@simplic10 Combines several well-known fallacies with a heaping dose of fetish/OCD motivated reasoning. -
@St_Rev@simplic10 Not sure I follow. -
@ozymandias314@simplic10 Um. Remember in The Avengers when Loki makes that speech about 'You were made to be ruled!" -

@St_Rev@simplic10 I am deathly afraid of authority personally? I am incredibly averse to people having power over me I can't take back. -
@ozymandias314@simplic10 Yeah, me too. Have strong ethical committment not to hold authority over others for that reason. -
@St_Rev@simplic10 Ah. I try not to hold authority because I don't like it and I'm not good at it.
