Not sure why this got removed from 196lemmy…blahaj.zone but it would be real nice if moderation on Lemmy gave you some sort of notification of what you did wrong. Like an automatic DM or something

    This is no conclusion. You can call it objective. All moral is based on subjectiveness: Different people have different morals. Especially ideology can have different morals. For example Nazism has a morality that the (in the eyes of the ruling party) “weak” kin should be exterminated and the “strong” kin should spread more and survive.

    This is a moral standpoint, and because objects like “good” and “bad” are based on moral, the political correctness of the moral is subjective.

    In ideology there is no right and wrong if you have no premises and no moral yourself, so to speak, if you’re really objective.

    Calling something objective is in truth just reactionistic.

    But of course I think that in any debate there should be moral premises, like for example a democratic parlament should always have the premise: “for the people”.

    In reality it’s quite different sadly.

    Of course different people again have different understandings on what makes everyone in a democratic society happy, but for example right wing parties that praise capitalism or fascism there are definitely people that would gain from that.

    Capitalism has the consequence that the rich get richer, and so to not devalue the currency, the poorer have to get poorer, even if they don’t get less money, but the amount of money that exists devalues the money of the poor. Inflation. And if political power can be bought through lobbying or corruption, there does not exist a democracy.

    Fascism has the consequence that one group of people become absolute and govern the rest which is definitely not democratic.

      This seems to assume reality is only that what can be measured by humans currently. But decisions have consequences even if we can not foresee them. To assume that there is no objective morality assumes that consequences were random or exist independent from causes.
