@Femboy_0ccult @Okabe_Rintar0IF Also, there is a contradiction going on here. You're claiming that morality is based on empathy alone, but also claiming that the huge number of right wingers around the world lack empathy to the point where they are inhuman. Isn't strange that so many humans lack "humanity"?

@Femboy_0ccult @Okabe_Rintar0IF It is not a fact that all morality is based on empathy, because we can find many instances where that is not the case. For example, people who believe that women ought to have children, even by force if necessary. There are many moral beliefs like this.

@Femboy_0ccult @Okabe_Rintar0IF Do those same scholars agree with your political and moral beliefs, that you think necessarily follow from having "humanity"? Even if I were to accept this definition of humanity, the way "empathy" is expressed is obviously widely variable.

@Femboy_0ccult @KokumajutsushiX @Okabe_Rintar0IF Something being complicated is not the same thing as being ridiculous and contradictory. If you want to help the global south, you would not support the emigration of capable people from those countries to join the US empire (or wherever) that you probably despise.

@Femboy_0ccult @Okabe_Rintar0IF That there might be an innate sense of empathy towards others does not mean we ought to accept your version of that empathy (Hume's Is-Ought Gap). After all, how this "innate empathy" is expressed varies extremely widely.

@Femboy_0ccult @Okabe_Rintar0IF Hume was a moral skeptic, he identified the Is-Ought Gap. Meaning, you can describe instances of morality that are "empathetic", but that is completely different from prescribing morality to everyone as "empathy" and not accepting disagreement.

@Femboy_0ccult @Okabe_Rintar0IF Read J.L. Mackie and you'll find out that because humans can disagree on even the most basic moral questions, even doing so on a societal scale (e.g. Mongols being ok with massacring tens of millions), it means there are no moral truths innate to human beings.

@Femboy_0ccult @KokumajutsushiX @Okabe_Rintar0IF "Brain drain is bad for them so let's make things worse by allowing their most capable people to come here, because that is our punishment for bombing them. But, it's not actually a punishment for bombing them because immigration is good (???)" Is that about right?

@Femboy_0ccult @KokumajutsushiX @Okabe_Rintar0IF I don't believe that you genuinely care about low birth rates. But for the sake of argument, immigration is not a solution to low birth rates. They are declining rapidly, globally. And how about the "ethical" concern of brain draining developing countries in the Global South?

@Femboy_0ccult @Okabe_Rintar0IF Since a large number of people do not share your moral sensibilities, then it must be incorrect that the meaning of humanity is "empathy", whether or not its your definition of the word.
