RE: If Something is Done Voluntarily, is it Automatically "No Harm, No Foul"?
There are missions that compel the hungry to listen to a sermon (over the growling in their stomachs) before getting a meal.
I note that I can go at least a month without food. I can walk a long ways away from those 'missions' in a month.
My point exactly, hunger is a bigger threat than a gun pointed on your head...and under duress of hunger - people generally do anything!
Opinion.
Sound opinion, imho. The Holodomor exemplifies your statement well. Indeed, the bulk of the 65 million+ people murdered by the Bolsheviks were killed by starvation, rather than physical assault.
Unfortunately those victims were prevented from just walking somewhere there was food.
