https://youtu.be/laVg3gyfitA The Moral Parity Thesis The conditions under which a person may, in self-defense or the defense of others, deceive, lie to, sabotage, attack, or kill a fellow civilian, or destroy private property, are also conditions under which a civilian may do the same to a government agent (acting ex officio) or government property. The moral parity thesis holds that justifying self-defense or the defense of others against government agents is on par with justifying self-defense or the defense of others against civilians.   – Jason Brennan, Ph.D., When All Else Fails: The Ethics of Resistance to State Injustice (2019, Princeton University Press), p. 11.
