Re: Sex & Violence
It's a quite natural human response which can be explained in a somewhat logical fashion.
Give a random person some power, lets say by moderating a message board, and instantly that person will start subjecting people to his or her morality, whether that be banning (or not banning) someone claiming forks are knives, or my personal favorite, someone claiming to be the reincarnation of Adolf Hitler. Effectively this means that morality plus power equals doing good, or more scientifically: g = mpĀ²
Obviously Ilkidarios's view of doing good is to show his disapproval. Given the nature of morality, morality itself doesn't need to be logical, though when manifested as a power it applies to evolutionary pressure, whether that be 6 million Jews being toasted, or democratically choosing which of the two nitwits becomes president. So from that perspective it makes sense to be logical about your morals if you desire them to be effective.
