A mighty hero close to him should slay him.
The cowards follow.

It might just be better to say that cowardice is the most horrible sin of men. Cowards want more money, yours, anybody's. Cowards stay silent. Cowards let evil pass.

Because it's the only moral principle that comes naturally. When you have a religion or a state that determines what is right or wrong it has to use force in the end to enforce it - so itself follows might is right. That's why the state wants to have the monopoly on the use of force, otherwise it couldn't enforce all the fake morals.

>> No.16202398

>>16202389
That does not make might right, but only the controlling force. Consider, "right" implies ought, while might only is.

>>16202398
(continuing this post)
It is not the only principle which comes naturally, either. Consider, a large fellow controls the smaller one. The big guy is, firstly, only big because the various parts of his body work together well. If they split apart, controlling each other, he'd be unable to move. Secondly, he is only ale to control the smaller with the small guys consent. Even if he held a gun to his head, he still needs the small guy to do what he asks to control him. It is only from consent he gets power.

>> No.16202418

>>16202398
>>16202398
The thing is that the controlling force can set the rules. And history is written by the victors. There is no "ought", there is just someone or some element (like the state) that is stronger than you and you have to do what it says, otherwise you will be punished.
But of course there is no law that says you can never be stronger than the state. Just look at south america, the cartels are making war with the army and even have their own areas where the police don't come in anymore.

What if I get punished, but don't care? Is that might?

No one said that the strong one will always be the strong one, that would be ignorant. Sometimes someone comes, challenges the strong on and takes over the might.
