But maybe there's more to life than incoming fists.
Maybe those who expect to see incoming fists everywhere see incoming fists everywhere. Maybe such people end up fighting a lot in life. Maybe such people end up formulating theories about violence as the fundamental currency of humanity.
Maybe there are other kinds of people, who don't see all interaction as combat. Maybe such people see whole other possibilities.
To the "sees incoming fists" person, that second kind of person seems like a deluded weakling who won't fight for their survival when it inevitably comes down to it.
To the "doesn't see incoming fists" person, that first kind of person seems hopelessly limited and borderline psychotic.
So far nothing in this thread has transcended this fundamental interaction of views.
