when i say science

2019-07-12 08:50:41 UTC  

i dont mean like

2019-07-12 08:50:43 UTC  

biology

2019-07-12 08:50:45 UTC  

or chemistry

2019-07-12 08:50:46 UTC  

use science to determine whats true

2019-07-12 08:50:48 UTC  

actually

2019-07-12 08:50:51 UTC  

well yeah

2019-07-12 08:50:55 UTC  

use results to make policies

2019-07-12 08:51:00 UTC  

Then your morality is based on philosophy, not science.

2019-07-12 08:51:03 UTC  

i try to logically reason why i have my moral positions

2019-07-12 08:51:11 UTC  

so use scientific method to predict outcomes of decisions and pick those most beneficial?

2019-07-12 08:51:13 UTC  

Social sciences =/= Science.

2019-07-12 08:51:14 UTC  

and i use the scientific method to detemrine if im right

2019-07-12 08:51:15 UTC  

that's egotism 😂

2019-07-12 08:51:17 UTC  

for example

2019-07-12 08:51:19 UTC  

Communism is bad

2019-07-12 08:51:30 UTC  

you use the scientific method, science, to test it

2019-07-12 08:51:36 UTC  

after many tests

2019-07-12 08:51:40 UTC  

Communism results in genocide

2019-07-12 08:51:45 UTC  

and genocide is objectively bad for humanity

2019-07-12 08:51:49 UTC  

so it's also morally wrong

2019-07-12 08:51:55 UTC  

basically

2019-07-12 08:51:59 UTC  

There’s also a simpler way of dismissing Communism. Does it violate the basic concept of rights?

2019-07-12 08:52:03 UTC  

if i think something's morally wrong

2019-07-12 08:52:11 UTC  

it's not cuz i think it's wrong emotionally

2019-07-12 08:52:12 UTC  

If it does, then it’s amoral.

2019-07-12 08:52:17 UTC  

it's because i think it's objectively wrong

2019-07-12 08:52:19 UTC  

as in

2019-07-12 08:52:25 UTC  

it is bad for the advancement for humanity

2019-07-12 08:52:30 UTC  

technologically and culturally

2019-07-12 08:52:42 UTC  

what is good is whatever benefits humanity

2019-07-12 08:52:43 UTC  

how can you assume yourself capable of that assessment

2019-07-12 08:52:46 UTC  

fascinating

2019-07-12 08:52:53 UTC  

i dont assume im 100% capabler

2019-07-12 08:52:57 UTC  

that's why other people exist

2019-07-12 08:52:59 UTC  

so we can talk about it

2019-07-12 08:53:20 UTC  

i think im right in most things, cuz i believe what i believe cuz i think im right

2019-07-12 08:53:20 UTC  

'talk about it'

2019-07-12 08:53:21 UTC  

?

2019-07-12 08:53:22 UTC  

like

2019-07-12 08:53:25 UTC
