Cool
yeah you could use utilitarianism to justify brutal tyranny if you wanted
Depending on your views on how tyranny impacts the common good of people.
I would argue it is destructive to peoples well being.
ingolfr what is your basic level goal that informs your political views?
at the most basic level it is the same as what aqua said
protection of the ingroup versus the outgroup/s
Yes because you are all tribalists
expansion of the ingroup
I care for both in groups and out groups.
no you don't
Why care for just one when you can care for both?
Oh yes I do
well for one because different groups have different material interests
I might be able to vc with you in an hour
I might be able to voice chat then
If not I can tomorrow
And I am rather disappointed with all of you, you can't even debunk his basic white bitch utilitarianism
given the baby will grow up to be hitler
and the man doesnt know it will
How do we know the baby will grow up to be Hitler?
he doesnt
but it will
What you should say his political goals aren't political, they are simply fantasies
what im doing is more interesting
He can wish whatever he wants but that's not how political laws work
The most interesting thing you did was shitting your pants
They sometimes call me a utopian but fail to actually substantiate it properly
you are
you believe in vague concept
of pleasure and pain of humans
that has no basis in politics in any history
By utopian I mean you are in same line with French utopians who believed in similar concepts out of some basic empathy and justified it with absolutely nothing
Not having justification for your desire is bad enough but they can't justify how to implement such goals in reality ether
History and present state of politics only confirm my beliefs, not yours
what I meant by you don't care for the outgroup as much as the ingroup, is if that if your vision of society is this liberal utilitarianism, that automatically puts you into an ingroup of liberal utilitarians that is in conflict with outgroups that don't want this vision enacted
