gollark: What?
gollark: A lot of the time explanations are basically just rationalised after the fact to justify something you're already doing.
gollark: The purpose written down somewhere doesn't really matter if people with different preferences try and shape it in their way, or if it doesn't actually work well at satisfying that purpose.
gollark: There are those who'd say it should be to punish criminals, or who say it's just the state enforcing its power.
gollark: Also, I don't think people agree on that being the point.
