okay then
so if a political party in america said we should indoctrinate the youth into hating tibetans and wanting to genocide them, what basis would you have to oppose that action?
You're saying "if society changed its moral stance, then morals would be different"
Yes. You're starting to become a subjectivist
no
I would because I am morally opposed to genocide
but if you were raised in a society where it was okay
you would not be morally opposed to it?
It's impossible to answer that, but sure. If I was taught and raised that that was OK and never exposed to a different Form of moral reasoning, it's likely that I would be ok with genocide
That makes sense to me
and that is equal in your view
to thinking genocide is bad?
What do you mean by equal?
as in, there is no distinction
we have no basis to condemn genocide, outside our own society's norms
Correct. Do you have one? I'd like to hear it. That could be massively powerful
okay then
so if i say I really fucking hate chinese
and i want to exterminate each and every last one of them
but
before i do it
you would not oppose me?
Before we go off into another hypo with the exact same answer, let's focus on the question we already established it leads us to
no
answer the question
yes/no
It's impossible to answer that, but sure. If I was taught and raised that that was OK and never exposed to a different Form of moral reasoning, it's likely that I would be ok with genocide
That makes sense to me
no no
thats not the answer
i said
i would change the society
you are already born in this example
It's impossible to answer that, but sure. If I was brainwashed/hyponotized that that was OK and never exposed to a different Form of moral reasoning, it's likely that I would be ok with genocide
no
on this example
you are not brainwashed
the society is
as this brainwashing happens
would you oppose it?
