Answer:

To provide safety.

Explanation:

Political philosopher Thomas Hobbes believed that people accepted to be ruled by a government because a government was able to provide safety to humans. Without government, laws, and justice, we could all take advantage of each other in any way we wanted. Moreover, anyone could take advantage of us as well. In order to protect ourselves, and avoid living in constant fear and violence, we establish a government that can exercise control over us and punish criminals. This, in his opinion, is the most effective way of achieving peaceful relationships among humans.

Why is cyberbullying psychologically harmful to members of the LGBTQ community
GarryVolchara [31]

Explanation:  

Cyberbullying is psychologically harmful to members of the LGBTQ community because, in the 21st century, technology is a major part of society. People's lives revolve around technology and LGBTQ members can potentially be subjected to cyberbullying every day.

LGBTQ individuals are harassed because of an identity that they can not control nor change, and this damages their self-confidence and mental health, spurring them to believe that their existence is "wrong."
