>>545942Agreed, but with the foot note that conservativism is still a maladaptive response to being punished for rebellion, the adaptive, and probably way more common response is learning to not get caught.
Also multiple behaviors can be adaptive, but some behaviors are far more construcive and therefore more adaptive than others. We have a whole buffet of working theories and provably effective praxis based on them to choose from. While I agree that some people have been fully checkmated and can't do much–I have family in such circumstances–the vast majority still have a lot they can do if you just get the knowledge of those praxis(es? i? Idk the plural) in their heads.
