I would personally like to live in a society that glorifies violence, and promotes survival of the fittest. A society filled with suffering and strength.

I'm playing devil's advocate, but indeed there are those who agree with that statement. Who gets to decide which is right?

This is a really good example of how devil's advocate strategies don't actually add to furthering or strengthening a discussion. Categorically they add friction to the conversation without providing a benefit. Arguments from DA-proponents only provides more evidence of this position.

Devils advocate strategies have nothing to do with the post you are responding to. That was just contrary assertions- which is just bad argumentation.

I saw it. He's not actually playing devil's advocate, just using the name. It's like the People's Democratic Republic of Korea.

If you come across a devil's advocate let me know. I've only seen the People's Democratic Republic of Devil's Advocation and the I Actually Believe This But I'm Too Afraid To Say It types.

We routinely abandon that strategy because it is highly inefficient.

collectively societies decide and create laws to that effect. Some societies have laws that include decapitation, severing limbs, and stoning. Others see this behavior as inhumane.
