You can make the broader point that governments ought to be invested in protecting human life regardless if that human is officially a citizen or not. We are not allowed to kill tourists or other travellers. Presumably governments can take away your citizenship, and it has been done before, but I think this shouldn't be a de facto license to kill.

I suppose secular people would argue that it is forbidden to kill them without appealing to their soul. And a secular pro-life argument would most likely revolve around the usual justification for why we don't kill other humans.

I wouldn't attribute it to fascism, because the concept works in any social group and was used throughout history. Even Mao said something like "Punish one, educate millions." I think the true conflict is about the dignity of the individual. Is it permissible to do a disproportionate amount of harm to one person to bring about consequences that further the goal? I'd say no. And that also includes bringing less than appropriate punishment.

no need to apologize, I forget it all the time. Rather, I should thank you for making it MIT. Now I can use it if I want to create an electron app with react that can deal with the file system very good.

It looks very cool. However, I didn't see a license file, so I'm reluctant to try it out. Don't want to touch what I can't play with, that's what my momma always told me.
