Do our best? That's all we ever do when it comes to morals anyway. And I'm intentionally implying that we already value and protect knowledge, under a variety of different names.
Having said that, I don't really believe in one moral value to rule them all, I just think knowledge is a big one and useful for cutting through gordian knots.
It tends to return to feelings a lot anyway, since upsetting people isn't good for the growth of knowledge.
- smokel 3y agoAha, I think I'm starting to understand your position, which is obviously more nuanced than I initially thought. But is knowledge such a big one? I suppose that the vast majority of the world population is not really helping to push the boundaries of knowledge forward. Unless you see gossip about celebrities as valuable knowledge as well.
