As was commonly said in the world of LD debate, "Util-is-Truthtil". Utilitarianism/Consequentualism is literally the only way humans actually act in the world, all other beliefs are delusion. Deontologists follow the Categorical Imperative only because they prefer to not live in a world without universal maxims (egoism), even if they won't directly admit to it in such language. As they also said in LD, "Kant was a C*nt" and Schopenhauer's/Stirner's critique of him on this exact point was right on the money.
- tines 2y ago> Utilitarianism/Consequentualism is literally the only way humans actually act in the world From what I understand, both of those systems define utility/consequence in terms of the entirety of society instead of only the individual doing the action or his tribe, so I’d say very few people act according to them.
