People in this very discord have told me that "evil is a bullshit word" and that everything is subjective.

2018-08-16 18:32:22 UTC  

i mean technically, considering morality is subjective and the concept of good and evil is based on morals

2018-08-16 18:32:24 UTC  

That's not completely wrong

2018-08-16 18:32:35 UTC  

I don't know what causes people to believe that. Are they sheltered? Are they trying to find excuses for their own behaviors?

2018-08-16 18:32:44 UTC  

What's considered good and evil today may not be tomorrow

2018-08-16 18:34:03 UTC  

but within each person's own personal morality there is definitely room for good and evil, as there is in each society's collective morality

2018-08-16 18:34:47 UTC  

There was a long period of time when slavery wasn't seen as evil, just normal. This obviously isn't true today. The moral subjectivity of whether abortion is evil is one of the cruxes of the abortion debate

2018-08-16 18:35:02 UTC  

and societies often share some core elements of their morality to the point where some moral arguments are agreed upon by the vast majority of humanity

2018-08-16 18:35:27 UTC  

There's a ton of people who believe abortion to be objectively evil. There's also a ton that don't see anything wrong with it

2018-08-16 18:36:24 UTC  

There's a difference between someone claiming a different standard of evil from someone else, and someone claiming that evil doesn't exist.

2018-08-16 18:37:21 UTC  

"Evil is a make-believe concept we've invented to deal with the complexities of fellow humans." is definitely bullshit

2018-08-16 18:37:47 UTC  

If everyone has a different standard of evil how can evil truly exist?

2018-08-16 18:38:09 UTC  

Evil is a word that we use to describe that which is grossly morally wrong within our own moralities, and those who's moralities would permit such things

2018-08-16 18:39:12 UTC  

well good luck on that question we've been working on it since we first figured out how to society

2018-08-16 18:40:30 UTC  

Moral skeptic here. I don't believe a universal morality actually exists. I believe society dictates what's considered good & evil

2018-08-16 18:40:39 UTC  

why are we being this philosophical in <#398973785426100234> of all rooms

2018-08-16 18:41:00 UTC  

I'm just avoiding scribble's histrionics.

2018-08-16 18:41:06 UTC  

is shitposting not, to some extent, philosophical

2018-08-16 18:41:07 UTC  

Because I'm a shitlord

2018-08-16 18:41:19 UTC  

Can't talk about anything without them dominating the discussion.

2018-08-16 18:51:37 UTC  

@Tohob >you can just delete it after
You know that they don't delete, right?

2018-08-16 18:51:50 UTC  

oh really?

2018-08-16 18:51:52 UTC  

yup

2018-08-16 18:52:09 UTC  

it's the same with social media too, you can try to delete whatever you want

2018-08-16 18:52:11 UTC  

they keep it

2018-08-16 18:52:19 UTC  

some even keep all edits you do

2018-08-16 18:52:24 UTC  

all versions

2018-08-16 18:54:07 UTC  

Exabytes of shitposting preserved with forensic intensity.

2018-08-16 18:55:01 UTC  

One day they'll feed it all into a massive deep learning neural network and it'll kill us all like Allied Mastercomputer.

2018-08-16 18:55:24 UTC  

and they will throw in your face

2018-08-16 18:55:33 UTC  

that you said the N-word

2018-08-16 18:55:35 UTC  

20 years ago

2018-08-16 18:55:39 UTC  

in a random Discord server

2018-08-16 18:55:45 UTC  

and therefore, you are guilty

2018-08-16 18:56:21 UTC  

Nah they won't bother trying to character assassinate me. When the revolution comes they're just going to shoot me behind the ear with a .22 and toss my body in the river.

2018-08-16 18:56:50 UTC  

yeah we aren't important enough for character assassinations

2018-08-16 18:57:55 UTC  

they'll use those tactics on tim, and then just keep a log of people who supported tim so we can be quietly removed at a later date
