在现实的世界里，承诺与诚信只有在让强制性的环境中才会对交易伙伴有意义——合作成为了胁迫的同义词。

In this world, promises and integrity are only as meaningful as the conditions that mandate them - cooperation becomes synonymous with coercion.

如果我们无法说服公众去做这些值得做的事情，那我们即便能够武力胁迫，也无权强制他们去做。

If we can't persuade the public that it's desirable to do these things, we have no right to impose them even if we have the power to do it.
