Do you believe "moral high ground" functions as a result of optics, not as a result of actual correct moral action?

Do you believe "moral high ground" functions as a result of optics, not as a result of actual correct moral action?
- keybored 5y agoYou can achieve a moral high ground based on your actions. And that's the only way to do it, in fact. But that clearly has nothing to do with this post since it is about example No. 19281 of the CIA doing some heinous shit. And what's the apparent takeaway from that? That Western Civ might lose its moral high ground. But what about example No. 19280 of the CIA doing some henious shit? What about No. 19279? ... Whence this alleged moral high ground?
