Default Re: Real-world sensitivities and game names

how do attack a person without attacking some action of there's then? every attack on a person is a de-facto attack on something they believe, did, or said. Even non-action is an action, just as apolitical is a politic.

WE ARE PERFORMATIVE. can't get around it. so any attack on something we performed (something said or done) is an attack on who we are. We can't attack a belief or essence that does not have performative aspect. If a person believes something, then we can't attack that belief unless it influences their actions in someway. Similarly, a belief cannot exist without affecting action.

Given this, and the need to constantly discourse, is an attack on a person, or a personal attack, actually an attack?

Isn't the only real attack an attack on a person's freedom to act?
