My problem with this comment is it takes people who:
can’t verbally reason without talking things through (and are currently stuck in a passive role in a conversation)
and who:
respond to a failure of their verbal reasoning
under circumstances of importance (in this case moral importance)
and conditions of stress, induced by
trying to concentrate while in a passive role
failing to concentrate under conditions of high moral importance
by simply doing as they are told—and it assumes they are incapable of reasoning under any circumstances.
It also then denies people who are incapable of independent reasoning the right to be protected from harm.
