To arrive at an answer of what to do. Thus ethics reflect on morals in a way that uses morals to arrive at the right thing to do
Not exactly, ethics uses moral as a base, but uses context as a critical tool of said moral to ARRIVE to a
ethical statement
For example:
Moral statement: It's good to have an open mind
Ethical critic of said statement based on context: In reality, it is sometimes hurtfull to have an openmind, especially with toxic ideologies as they can bring you toward hurtfull behaviors.
Ethical statement: Having an open mind is a necessity to engage in diverse ideas and perspective, but you need to stay careful and have critical thinking in order to protect yourself from hurtfull beliefs.
> Contextualization of the good brought by the open mind mindset.
> Contextualization of the danger of having too much of an open mind.
agree killing someone isn't inherently evil, there can be justified reasons for it, but unjustified killing (murder) is intrinsically evil
"Justified action" is a social construct.
What is justified in one specific society could be forbidden in the rest. In the context of armed resistance against a fascist or dictatorial regime, the legitimate action of killing (because of the conflict) would be seen as justified from the side of the oppressed (killing) and as non justified as the side of the oppressor (murder).
This is why the action of Luigi against a CEO was framed as a murder (but even worst, as a terrorist action) by the oppressors (the states) and as a justified kill by the oppressed (the working class under the threats of Billionnaires and the bad health care system).
To look correctly at this situation, we need to stop using moral and use ethic as only ethic will use context to understand the legitimacy of an action.
Oh so again, no contradiction here, you do not value humans any higher than a cockroach or ant, all species are worth the same to you
Thank you for basically saying "yes" to what I said but typing a "No." in front of it
I value cockroach as similar in inherent value to humans. Nuance* - I choose to raise that value when you choose to diminish it.
Now, it doesn't mean that I will act the same way with a coackroach or with a human. As my education and my situation are preventing me from being really coherent with this belief. But inherently, I'm forced to aknowledge the fact that the superior inherent value we put on humans is a social construct.
Don't worry, if you still don't understand the next time the basic things I just explained, I will give up this discussion.
In your hypothetical, the burden of proof is on you to determine why the will must have an internal reason to choose between 2 things
No.
Science shows that our choices are the results of electrical and chemical phenomenon inside our brain.
You have the burden of proofof showing why, even when the material condition are directing your electrical and chemical signal to one specific path, you can somehow just ignore that and bring your body to act in a different way.
In other words, you have the burden of proof of proving me that you have the power of god.
your initial statement i responded to was about suffering because of the pregnancy.
you already moved the goalpost by alot.
and even then your argument sucks.
The reason for abortion are multi factorials. I'm not concentrating to one single argument. You only do and I did not follow that.
If this post came from a woman, maybe you'd have more credibility.
It comes from someone who suffer because of precarity. So...
...And by that you mean that you became more hateful of conservatives, right? Dude, you convinced a total of 0 users in these past few years here. How do you feel after investing so much time in something that was fruitless?
Indeed I convinced no one. That's one of the reasons why I'm giving up. Because it's not possible. At least not with the current method.
The reason why I'm giving up is actually because I've become more respectfull. This forum is not the only instance where I have been fighting consevatives. I've done that on many plateforms for a decade.
But.. it's over now.
I see that fighting with people like you made me use your weapons instead of actually finding mine and... well... I don't want to become you. So I stepping down.
Change will only be possible through structural and system solutions, not through the convincing of individual behaviors. This forum refuses to change structurally so there is nothing more that can be done. I will concentrate on helping those who can be convinced instead of trying to help those who refuse to be convinced. And I will find places in the fanbase that do not welcome oppressor's enablers.
In other words, I'm done arguing with people like you. I will be slowly moving on.
How do you feel after investing so much time in something that was fruitless?
Good actually, because this helped me do a lot of research. But this is not necessary anymore.
He's so up in arms to fight us etc that he never stopped to try to just live among us.
It's not a good idea to live among people who justify oppressions.
