Aren't the libertines a band? Libertarians

2019-07-21 23:28:38 UTC  

Anyone who seeks to break the common moral order is a libertine

2019-07-21 23:28:49 UTC  

ok

2019-07-21 23:29:01 UTC  

but that doesn;t mean that they haven't got their own to enforce instead

2019-07-21 23:29:38 UTC  

"all is allowed" is just as much a moral code as "nothing is allowed"

2019-07-21 23:29:42 UTC  

They dont, they simply seek to overturn others

2019-07-21 23:29:47 UTC  

Libertarian, literally to live as one sees fit with respect to others, and to desire such rights to be extended to others

2019-07-21 23:30:05 UTC  

literally every action done by a person is subject to moral judgement

2019-07-21 23:30:20 UTC  

the only way to escape morality is not to exist as a moral subject

2019-07-21 23:30:22 UTC  

By the way this is a spectrum and not a pure binary

2019-07-21 23:30:47 UTC  

not doing x is still an action

2019-07-21 23:30:58 UTC  

as long as you are a moral subject

2019-07-21 23:31:09 UTC  

this is not something you can escape

2019-07-21 23:31:12 UTC  

Libertarian is not a moral stance it is a policy stance

2019-07-21 23:31:13 UTC  

ever

2019-07-21 23:31:42 UTC  

policy subject to morality...

2019-07-21 23:31:45 UTC  

it's an action

2019-07-21 23:31:52 UTC  

thus it is a moral consideration

2019-07-21 23:31:58 UTC  

It can be but it doesnt have to be

2019-07-21 23:32:06 UTC  

no

2019-07-21 23:32:09 UTC  

it is by definition

2019-07-21 23:32:21 UTC  

morality is the theory of proper behavior

2019-07-21 23:32:27 UTC  

It dient have to enforce morality

2019-07-21 23:32:32 UTC  

policymaking is a type of behaviour

2019-07-21 23:32:32 UTC  

Doesnt

2019-07-21 23:32:33 UTC  

done

2019-07-21 23:32:42 UTC  

it doesn't have to enforce morality, no

2019-07-21 23:32:57 UTC  

But policy is not behavior

2019-07-21 23:32:58 UTC  

but choosing not to enforce morality is still an act to be morally judged

2019-07-21 23:33:03 UTC  

When we can't trust others to make moral judgements for themselves, then we seek policy

2019-07-21 23:33:07 UTC  

policy is behaviour

2019-07-21 23:33:12 UTC  

gov chooses what to do

2019-07-21 23:33:14 UTC  

literally

2019-07-21 23:33:24 UTC  

This has nothing to do with the point i was making

2019-07-21 23:33:29 UTC  

in this case it chooses not to do something

2019-07-21 23:33:33 UTC  

which is also a choice

2019-07-21 23:34:01 UTC  

Libertines seeks to break or change the moral order puritans seek to uphold it

2019-07-21 23:34:22 UTC  

fine, but don't call libertines amoral or uninterested in morality

2019-07-21 23:34:33 UTC  

because all thye are by your definition is social revolutionaries

2019-07-21 23:34:52 UTC  

unhappy with the currently enforced moral order
