But you are redefining 'coercion' to suit your theory!

The human race and evolution 'red in tooth and claw' is coercion all the way.
Everything is coercion of some kind.

See: <http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/coercion/>
for a philosophical discussion about what coercion means.

But they open their discussion by listing all the types of coercion
that they are not going to discuss, because it gets too complicated.
