    This isn’t an argument, it’s a fact. The only way to not be part of the social contract is to remove yourself from society, including all of societies infrastructure. You are obligated to support and work within the rules of the society you are a part of. If you object on moral reasons then you can make your attempts to change your society or which society you are part of through whatever means you have access to.


  • You were never apart from society so you are bound by the social contract by default, failure to uphold the social contract will result in the following violence: being put in the corner, being told ‘no’, spanking, detention, suspension, loss of employment, physical violence, police arrest, incarceration, garnishing of wages, loss of access to social services, etc.



  • Hear me out. Transposable character arcs. Write your character arcs separate from the characters personality so that you can transpose the roles to any character that takes the groups interests on the fly. This way literally any NPC can be the “big bad” depending on who the party gravitates towards while giving them a legitimate facade that the players won’t expect.

    This can also make it more fun for you as you now have to roll play the character arc with a random character.

    It’s because ultimately we all value ‘strength’ (of varying sorts) over ‘weakness’. We are still far from socially internalising “strength is being able to show weakness”, because in part you need to be strong to deal with the expected pushback of being OK with being ‘weak’.
