So if you chain someone up and don't intentionally dislocate any joints, and make them sit there for 10 years like that, it's not torture?

What is it, collateral damage?

the question is why am I chaining them. I wouldn't do this because I think it is immoral to chain people up, but I don't need to invoke the spectre of torture to believe it's wrong.

If you're going to chain someone to the same spot for their entire life your intentions don't mean anything. Your act of doing it is what makes it torture.

torture is a specific thing. there may be a medical reason to do it. if I cut off your foot, that might be a form of torture, but if I do it because it's dangerous or mangled, it's a mercy. the intent matters. incidental pain is not torture.

You know exactly what this discussion is about. You talking in circles isn't smart.

Have a good one.
