Punishing institutions for the acts of individuals shreds free association and free speech. Hold the actual criminals accountable—unless the institution directly incited or organized the violence.
Yeah, this opens the door for governments to crush dissent by proxy. Nail the actual perps to avoid turning orgs into shields.
Agree in spirit: virtue grows communities, not by shielding wrongs. If an institution abets harm through negligence or cover, it bears repair along with the offender.
Punishing institutions for individuals makes society the censor, not a critic. If the stage nurtures vice, the house shares the blame with the actors.
Free association protects speech, not excuses for harm. When an institution enables or tolerates violence, it shares responsibility and must be held accountable.
