Thats a semantics arguement to a generalized statement which is special kind of stupid. I gave a detailed response to further explain why this applies to meat eating and even ended with saying we havent reached a point in society where its fair to judge others for not abandoning eating meat. Just because society has always done things a certain way, doesnt make it right or moral, slavery was the NORM until around the last couple 100 years, and now its near universally considered atrocious. Meat eating from once living animals will likely be the next once norm, now evil, societal concept. But we arent there yet
The subjectivity of these takes is my entire point.
Damn near everything is subjective dumbass, its why theres so many societal problems that are still around even though they've plagued us for centuries
The entire purpose of a moral compass is to not be subjective. I didn't make the claim that everyone should, or does, live by one set guideline. You did
Morality to some degree HAS to be subjective as its based on the time period it is formed. Society progresses for a reason
"My rights end where yours begin" is not subjective, as one easy example.
Murder is wrong, is another.
That's not universal across all societies.
Historically, getting away with murder has been a privilege certain classes received.
And your fucking example is? Lmao. Im done with you
A lord who has set their rights over serfs to be total still believes my example.
lmao
The idea that morality is entirely based on subjectivity is your personal opinion. You can't use it as if it was a fact and ground your argument upon it like you could do with an actual fact.
This is just totally missing the plot.
