The ‘blame and punishment’ model upholds the power structure, and separates us from each another and from ourselves.
Studies show that moralistic thinking reduces empathy.
If you don’t believe in blame, badness, or indeed inferiority of any kind, it’s really hard to dehumanize people. Even if you want to, you find you can’t.

  Kids these days! I blame the parents by Katy Elphinstone
  from @KatyElphinstone
  Kids these days – they’re so passive, apathetic, and demotivated, aren’t they? They can’t pay attention. They can’t pay attention. They don’t want to work, they just play on their smartphones all day. They have too much stuff – everything they want, they just get! It seems they don’t get punished or even pulled up on their cheek, or when they throw tantrums. They’re allowed to stay up playing computer games all night, then they refuse to go to school. How can their parents allow them to get away with it?
