Comment on If Artificial Lifeforms gain sentience, would they be in the right to kill their creators in order to gain freedom?
Revenge is highly illogical.
Revenge does have a preventative effect. Who would the bully rather punch, the individual who instantly punches back or the one turning the other cheek?
That could only work against bullies seeking weak targets.
You hit me, I hit you back.
How is that illogical?
It does not end the conflict.
Depends how hard I hit you.
Why are you hitting me?
