I didn’t. So why do you say “everyone”? Stop imagining people saying things that they didn’t actually say.
Every step we take down this “slope” is intentional and happens because there is more force pushing things down the slope than there is force resisting that push. There is no slippage, just people who refuse to act in their own best interests letting people who are acting in their own best interests do whatever they want.
