gollark: In an individual interaction, vengeance is bad, because you're just harming someone even though doing it afterward won't cause them to have not done the thing for which you are taking revenge.
gollark: Which kind of works even if you haven't taken vengeance on *anyone* yet, if people *think* you are likely to.
gollark: As I said, if people know "hmm yes if I do bad things to this person they will have VENGEANCE" they are less likely to do those bad things.
gollark: Or I guess not even in that weird way.
