Robert Noggle has revised his SEP-entry on The Ethics of Manipulation,

Guess I'll give up on fish again for one single stupid reason: Its strict refusal to pass unmatched wildcards to commands like grep. No, I am not going to quote each and every regular expression just because this otherwise pretty bloated shell decides to be paternalistic on this topic […]

But for those of us who grew up in a country where your legal value is exactly half that of a man,
the stakes are not theoretical.’
#Paternalism was action that limited a person was or group's liberty or autonomy against their will and was intended to promote their own good.

Hope so. Yet #paternalism remains in charge.
But referents are meaningless if the system pushes them out:

Very important point: the incompetence is a humiliation test. Republicans have submitted. The grooming was a success. Loyalty to pedophilia is now the platform.
The orange pedo convinced MAGA that competent women and the needs of children are the problems. Oligarchs agreed. #paternalism

Labour's idea of internal democracy in full effect today, I see.
After all, what could local party members possibly bring to bear in the selection of a parliamentary candidate?
Higher-ups know best. #paternalism
Note the framing though: His parents, although young to have a kid (as mine were) DECIDED to have, keep, and raise him. No one forced them either way.
