But punishing humans for killing animals isn't a very rational thing to do, is it? Sounds 100% emotional to me, and emotions computers do not have.

I guess if we spew enough of this BS onto the internet, AI could work it from there, but calling that rational doesn't make much sense to me.

Communities are people. They are not definitions.

It is considered rational because it is meant to motivate people to not kill animals, not punishment for the sake of justice or somesuch.

It's only rational if the point of punishment is deterrence.

Apparently, being a Sith meant to Ziz that you should do whatever is in your power and desire to do, without other constraints. If you're "fundamentally good" (a thing she believes in), then what you end up doing will be a kind of maximization of good.

Of course, this is trite pulp nonsense, high-school nerd level philosophy at best.
