Like that's her whole point, this goes beyond abstract moral approval of wrongdoers being punished, people *actively seek it out*, they make whole subreddits for it, it's one of their hobbies
And this response is baked in, it's visceral, it forms the basis of much of "human nature" across different cultures When someone fucks with you you have an immediate response that they need to be punished, based on a deep fear response that if you don't, they'll do it again

It's a deeply ingrained fear response, and persists even if it seems "irrational" (like a situation where it seems, on a practical level, unlikely that the crime will be repeated) It *feels wrong* to just let it go, the sense that an unpunished sin will recur is very powerful

Society only functions because we have behaviours over the top of instinctive and visceral behaviour. I would hate to live in a society that allowed that sort of thing to happen.
