we cant achieve the ideal
my point wasnt done
Or the bourgeoisie being killed by the proletariat. 😎
>be the bigger person
aka, let people walk all over you and have moral principles that are toppled by a slight breeze
the child did an evil act
prove me wrong
you can't
If your ideals are absolute you're asking to be moved on them anyways.
I can
the child was trying to survive
wtf josh is a socialist???? excess wealth should be redisributed!!!1?1?!1
the child did something evil to live
evil is too string a word the child did a bad thing but to jump straight to evil ignores the context
it must be done, but its never justified
>evil
>a strong word
only if you make it as such
taxes for example are necessary theft
>taxes
>necessary
not in my utopia :ancap:
evil is the worst form of bad there is
If you are making it such a watered down word when in English it's a very strong one you're either being intentionally or unintentionally intellectually dishonest within the context of your own made-up jargon.
ancap is unrealistic im done
In English, like every language in the world, words have meaning.
im still done I hate post modernists
@εïз irma εïз we don't have to use the word evil then, we could use "bad" or "wrong"
Is it bad for a child to steal from a baker if they're starving?
@Josh42A
>me
>a post modernist
I am an ABSOLUTIST
@εïз irma εïз it's bad for anyone to steal, reason does not matter
nice try post modernist
perhaps it is wrong for the child to be starving
I can tell you're a absolutist because of the gaps in your logic.
but thieving is still wrong
@εïз irma εïз its not wrong in terms of nessesity , but it is in principle
@Josh42A you're the one with a morally relative ideology
morals *are* reletive
false
It is bad for ANYONE to steal, ignoring the context of specific situations. The necessity of starvation is more important than the morality of theft.
^literal post modernist though @Josh42A
didnt you say things have an intrinsic value
they do
Moral relativism is not a strictly post-modernist view.
then how are morals subjective?
