- Noumenon72 4y agoCorollary: Asymmetric Justice, where you judge bad outcomes whenever they occur but only count good outcomes with good intentions, such that taking action in general becomes immoral compared to inaction. I do this a lot, as in his example about feeling bad that buying a tomato prevents someone else from having that tomato. https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/YRgMCXMbkKBZgMz4M/asymmetric-justice https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/YRgMCXMbkKBZgMz4M/asymmetric...
