Deeply interesting, and glad to see you writing articles again. How would this reconcile with social stigma around behaviors that are harmful to both individual and society; obesity, drug abuse, fatherless. NVC seems pretty accepting, perhaps to a fault?

NVC is good for interpersonal relationships, but not for anything at a macro level. On a societal level, I support shaming destructive behaviors. Yes, a country run by NVC would be a disaster.
