The Moral Calculus of Society

I can see how that's morally motivated if someone has been beaten down by society and now they're trying to restore their rightful place or something. But I could imagine a version of morality that's maybe an older one that does not distinguish between what the different relevant units of moral calculus in society. Yeah, I think it really sort of depends on the cultural rules as far as what's appropriate or not. In some cases it's saying, hey, you really need to target the specific person that aggrieved you. In other cases it's just pure kind of displaced aggression.
