Disgust has absolutely no ethical weight. If you are basing your ethical positions on the emotion of disgust you should stop, it is entirely unjustified and leads to a huge amount of harm.

word-for-today

Word for today: wisdom of repugnance

The logical fallacy that because something disgusts you it must be bad

this is probably the funniest example of a tumblr user simply not reading the post theyre reblogging at all

Reblog if you are a freak who is justifying their gross actions

lettuce-king

Should've worded it differently but I get what they're saying

#I agree but I fear evil people with the intention to harm others and innocents will use this to justify their gross actions

tildesee

If you don't argue from disgust in the first place, then the very idea of using this to "justify" anything falls flat from first principles.

Like:

Person a: "this thing is ethically wrong because it does a, b, and c demonstrably harmful things"

Person b who wants to do that thing: "your disgust holds no ethical weight, so it's okay if i do that"

Person a: "who the fuck said anything about disgust?"

Like. There is no "justifying" that works here if you have any real non-disgust-based argument. If you don't have a non-disgust-based argument, you probably should be told to question why you think the thing is wrong. Maybe it'll lead to you not believing the thing is wrong, maybe it'll lead to you having real, actual reasons for believing the thing is wrong.

But also, like. You should probably let go of the idea that there are specific "evil people" too. There are people who do harmful things. You yourself have probably done harmful things; i can't prove it, because i don't know you, but i feel pretty confident in it. You are not evil because you have some harmful things. The thing isn't "hunt down the evil people", it's "get people to stop doing harmful things, or if we can't then stop people from doing harmful things."

The worry that this could be used to justify harmful things is absolutely absurd, and honestly could probably use the dunking on it's been getting.

Don't lead with disgust. Lead with reasons that things are bad.

giving unread book back to the library makes me feel like i should be shot

The fact that some people say things like this while other people think it’s totally fine to starve children is something that really should be talked about more.

period i am against that for sure

What do you consider the floor?

Anything you're standing on (literally anything)

Natural ground in any enclosed space (caves, freestanding awnings)

Natural ground in any man-made construction (closed tents, permanent pavilions)

Man-made ground in any context (roads, sidewalks)

Man-made ground inside a temporary structure (freestanding awning on concrete)

Man-made ground inside a permanent structure (hardwood, vinyl)

Each category goes beyond what's in parentheses, I just wanted to add some examples.

#any surface im standing on thats solid and level enough that i can walk around

trying to vote in the us is so frustrating cuz even left leaning candidates in a liberal state will just be like “healthcare is a human right” and “climate change is bad and a problem” and “people should be able to live in a house.” like these shouldn’t be the pinnacle of your political stance these should be the bare minimum standards for having any power whatsoever. i get that this is as left as they can reasonably be without causing some huge scandal, but come on.

i am this generation. ive come to realize that even if the american government does eventually get its shit together and elect someone decently competent and benevolent, i won’t be able to recognize it. my distrust and lack of faith in the system is too deep to be alleviated by anything less than a complete dismantling of the entire country as an institution.

"explain your answer" no. i used a calculator, and i do not care about this class

#ok but #any question where you can simply put numbers in a calculator and get an answer should not need to be justified #what are you even supposed to do #mathematically prove the validity of the operations you’re performing?

soooo tired of sex and romance always being tied together in committed relationships in fiction. I want fiction where the characters are 1) utterly devoted to each other 2) regularly fucking each other's brains out 3) not at all romantically inclined. the romance can go, but the devotion and fucking can stay.

#what exactly are we removing?#i was under the impression that romance just refers to the intersection of devotion and fucking?#is there some other component ive never heard of?

Remember "Reduce, Reuse, Recycle" ? I feel like there's been a distancing from the "reduce" and "reuse" part and a favoritism towards "recycle" by corporate American.

Capitalism can still thrive with recycling in the mix. You buy Plastic Thing 1, throw it away after one use, and they take that and recycle it into Plastic Thing 2 and sell it back to you. All while continuing to harm the environment.

Reusing puts a damper on things. They can't sell you Plastic Thing 2 when you're still using Plastic Thing 1. Plastic forks, for example- there is literally no reason why you can't reuse plastic forks more than once (aside from maybe microplastics, but it's too late for that)

Reducing is the one everyone wants to ignore. Just don't buy Plastic Thing 1. You don't need Plastic Thing 1. Pick up a set of metal forks and use those for years. Convenience is killing the planet

ladytabletop

the slogan is in that order for a reason! It is listed in order of effectiveness and impact; if you can't reduce, reuse. If you can't reuse, recycle.

cwicseolfor

Refuse what you don’t need

Reduce what you can

Reuse everything still in working order

Recirculate what you don’t need by sharing or selling onward

Refurbish what’s fallen out of good condition so it lasts longer

Repair what’s broken altogether

Repurpose what can’t serve its original function

Recycle what is unsuitable for repurposing

What goes unsaid here is why they’re all “re-“ prefixed: it’s about circularity. Keeping the resources in use means that we don’t have to keep incurring the environmental costs of production over and over on infinite one-way trips of new stuff starting in the earth, through human society, and right back into the earth in landfill.

u see ultimately the silt verses understands that the best way to write a het relationship is if they never kiss or have sex or do anything at all explicitly romantic and then the guy* half of the equation dies in the dirt. hashtag true love. (suddenly very serious) and it was true love. it was.

strawberry-crocodile

personally? i enjoy being a fan of characters who have done Wrong. i like when a character is not a perfect victim, has hurt people, has transgressed, has done bad things. sometimes its nice to feel the sting yknow? and to recognize that a character is not a flawless perfect victim, but is deserving of understanding and compassion anyway. a lot of people in fandom refuse to let go of moral absolutism and its... rough.

strawberry-crocodile

great now name a female character you feel this way about in the next 30 seconds or another hostage dies

you can be good (adjective) but you cannot be good (identity)
