@Your_Wrongest @Glenfid9 @HilllbillyHugs @sola_chad If morality is purely subjective, then ‘wrong’ just means ‘I don’t like it,’ and no one is actually obligated to do anything.
But you still speak as if people should act a certain way.
That only makes sense if morality is more than preference. I will end with this. Good day.

So the real question isn’t:
“Do we access morality through our minds?”
We clearly do.
The real question is:
👉 Is morality something we discover, or something we invent?

@Your_Wrongest @Glenfid9 @HilllbillyHugs @sola_chad Do you think there are actions people are truly obligated not to do—or just actions you strongly dislike?

@CalebColli65 @Glenfid9 @HilllbillyHugs @sola_chad In other words, why should I care what people say I should do?

@Your_Wrongest @Glenfid9 @HilllbillyHugs @sola_chad But that raises a consistency issue—if your principle is ‘I only follow what I feel,’ then that has to apply in every situation, not just the ones you agree with.
Otherwise you’re appealing to a standard beyond your feelings when it suits you.
English

@Your_Wrongest @Glenfid9 @HilllbillyHugs @sola_chad On your view, you don’t actually have to—there’s no objective ‘should,’ only your preferences and social consequences.
On my view, you should care because moral obligations are grounded beyond individual feelings—so they apply whether we like them or not.

@Your_Wrongest @Glenfid9 @HilllbillyHugs @sola_chad A broken compass doesn’t mean there’s no true north—it just means our readings can be off.
Disagreement in morality shows we can be mistaken, not that there’s no moral truth

@CalebColli65 @Glenfid9 @HilllbillyHugs @sola_chad We can access beauty through our senses, but that doesn't mean beauty is objective.
English

@Your_Wrongest @Glenfid9 @HilllbillyHugs @sola_chad Even if beauty is subjective, that doesn’t prove morality is.
You’re just assuming they belong in the same category—but moral claims carry obligation, preferences don’t.
