It's obviously not a factual statement about reality though, it's a personal belief. At most that belief acts as a target to reach in an eventually-consistent type of manner.
I'm struggling to find the purpose of the article, it seems like beliefs of any nature can occupy the title "crony"?
- benlivengood 6y agoEthical arguments are often shorthand that skip the steps of observing humans and their emotions and taking some of them as givens. An ethical framework does the epistemological work of observing what humans are and how they feel and behave in various situations and forming generalizations that hopefully aren't too wrong. This is why arguing ethics across ethical frameworks is so frustrating; the semantics aren't compatible enough.
