Are you real?

If I deprived you of oxygen for 5 minutes would it be good or bad for you?

You are a human being, you reason, you desire, you feel pain and pleasure and you have basic needs to survive. For you, good and bad exist in a very real, very tangible fashion. Whether what's good for us is objectively valuable on a universal scale is a question for a God to answer not a man. For you, your life and your happiness are innately valuable because you hold them to be valuable. For human ethics to exist only human valuation and human reason must exist not divine valuation or divine reason.

When the ancient Greeks discussed morality they limited themselves to the question of what defined a good life for a human being, they did not attempt to reason as a God because they were not Gods. After European philosophy adopted Christianity we adopted the concept of divine justice. When we abandoned Christianity and embraced atheism we abandoned God as a justification for divine justice; but we did not abandon the standard, a standard we don't need to have ethics for a human life.

For me it's because it makes me feel good for my race to dominate other races. And I despise the humiliation of my race being destroyed. I want power because it feels good. I want my genes to survive because it feels good. It's an evolutionary instinct. It feels good when we win and bad when we lose. It's that simple.

Because the tribe is the basic human social unit, and members of the tribe are genetically related to some degree.

Strong, unified tribe = weather hardships better = kill your enemies = spread your genes. There's really no meaning to life beyond that, the rest of your body is just a vehicle to inject the cum in your balls into a fertile womb and carry on into the next generation.

Religion is the ultimate cope to this.

Just because something cannot be proven does not mean it does not exist. This is your brain on materialism. There are other planes of existence and we have not developed a method for properly analyzing what can broadly be called the subjective, which includes consciousness, experience, free will, religion, morality. Philosophy is an attempt to apply objective, scientific thinking to the subjective. It has some success but it is fundamentally limited because it is the wrong tool for the job. It can flesh out a value system, but you can also ask 'Why?' repeatedly until you eventually get to an unprovable belief.
The existence of consciousness at all proves all of the above to have some basis in reality. Consciousness and individual experience is not compatible with how we understand the universe from a materialist perspective. Scientific theory cannot explain how dead atomic particles combine to form something capable of experience. Either consciousness comes from another plane, and the complexity of the brain merely serves as a required adapter to interface with the material realm. Or atomic particles each contain a trace of consciousness in them, meaning the whole universe is alive. Both these theories completely differ from the dead universe taught by scientists.

I agree and I think it's nearly impossible to define a "tribe" nowadays, in fact I'd even say the concept began to be diluted with the advent of agriculture - which naturally led to organized religions attempting to codify "morals." When I talk about tribes, I'm mainly referring to the hunter/gatherer ages of humanity.

That's just an expression of empathy. Being able to read other people's feelings doesn't actually mean they have any meaning and important beyond fee fees. Why is robbing someone bad? Because it takes something that belongs to them without compensation. The only way we can justify is that we wouldn't like it ourselves. But who says we should actually care if other people suffer? Prove we should care? Prove we shouldn't just do what's best for our own happiness. You can't.

>Why should I give a fuck about the ethics when there's nothing to demonstrate they are actually true or have any basis in reality?

I just gave you a basis for them that was entirely real and observable a posteriori. Human valuation and human desire. You just dodged the question and reiterated the universal objective morality argument that I had already repudiated as being unnecessary.

>Morality is just a gamble you take based on someone else not fucking you over in revenge. But if you know they are powerless to fuck you over then there's no reason to give a fuck about them.

Maybe if you're a nigger.

If you're a human being, you have reason, you are able to perceive the pain inflicted by your actions, you are able to conceive of a sense of justice, of duty, of honor. If you and you what you hold value as a human being is worthy of your consideration and respect then the same is true of other human beings. Its just logic and truth, you can deny logic and truth and still value your own interests; but at that point you've just accepted that you're a hypocrite. You've abandoned the whole concept of reason or logic or truth being used to dictate your actions, you've abandoned philosophy, you've abandoned your humanity and you've become a nigger.

>>545240899

>So men have no basis for governance great.

I posted John Stuart Mill for a reason. The preservation of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness justifies itself.

>How do you know the human life in front of you isn't just an elaborate illusion conjured up by AI?

Descartes talked about this he postulated that all reality could be an illusion generated by a demon a concept known as the Cartesian Demon in philosophy. The only thing you can be 100% certain of being your own existence and self awareness, Cogito Ergo Sum, I think therefore, I am.

However I would suggest to you that you have to operate on the assumption that what you're seeing is real.

>>545241919

The Ubermensch dictates their own value and their own ethics. That doesn't mean that they should abandon truth or reason in the process.

>>545241963

A fair objection. I would point out that Logic and Truth do have obvious practical benefits and that they may be confirmed a posteriori. You could abandon them; but do you want to? Is a life unguided by logic or truth desirable? Or is it embracing madness. To me if you accept logic and truth then you accept them, if you deny them hypocritically when it has material benefit to you then you're doing something your own standards dictate to be wrong. Trying to get around that by saying there's no objective universal good is just a cheap trick in my view. If a thing is good to you then you should act logically according to that fact simply because your reasoning dictates it to be true. That's how we make all decisions. Do I question if I "ought" to believe if 2+2=4? Or do I simply believe it because logic and truth dictate it to be so? If this sort of decision making analysis is sufficient for us to make scientific reasoning and to understand the world around us why should it not be sufficient for us to make decisions governing whether our own behavior is beneficial or not?

It's really just amoral or damaged goods trying to justify their state of affairs.

We also have data for those able to keep score.
-Christians and Rabbinics have mutually exclusive sets of morals. One has 2k years of successful history creating self sufficient countries/ and kingdoms--otherwise known as the West. Those are organizational creations.
-The morals that jews have made it impossible to form a country in that same time period and the subsidized colony they currently scammed off the crown via usury isn't even self-sustainable.

if someone were to remove your balls and feed them to you would you still hold this opinion?

is the action morally ambiguous, non-existent or objectively wrong? if every person alive decided upon this action would that lead to an improved world or the death of the species? you can very much observe the castration and the effects.
from the subjective position of other life this might be for the best, not so much for the human perspective.
the morality does not need to be real for realized outcomes to take place. which is why rational people can argue that woke tranny shit is objectively immoral because it leads to sorrowful outcomes for both individual and the society that is subjected to it against their will.
there are objective unquestionable moral outcomes, in that sense real or not is irrelevant.

Ok, then come over and let me flail you then flail your loved ones in front of you whilst making you watch. Shouldn't bother you if morality is just made up social constructs, right?
Morality is instinct OP. It's about the continuation of your own life, then about continuation of those you have emotional investment in because they are important to your own well being, like your parents or siblings or kids. Then they are about the wellbeing of those you are surrounded by because if your neighbors are doing fine, that increases your chances of them protecting or helping you if someone tries to attack you. We just have spent thousands of years getting into the fine print of what serves us vs what doesn't to the point of morality feeling almost removed from it's core meaning but it's always about your instinct to not die. Which is inherent to all life forms, even plants. Every moral principle is about increasing the wellbeing of you, your loved ones, your community, society, humanity, animals, nature, etc. it's an exponentially more removed system of realizing how these things impact you if they aren't going right and thus being invested in them being handled right. For example, people in america might be outraged by indians dumping their dead ones into ganghes because they know how water pollution works and how diseases spreading works and how indians migrating and bringing their culture with them works and all those things pose a direct threat to their own health and thus life. It's always at the core about survival.

many of you seem to relate the moral action in terms of reality/perception etc.
it is still objectively immoral to steal virtual currency from another player, as it may lead to negative outcomes for them both in reality as negative emotion/them quitting the game or virtual ramifications in said game. not being able to progress in said game etc/stolen virtual labour.
i would go so far as to argue that immoral action in such virtual environment is even more egregious because you are removed further from consequence or justice.

the virtual world is not real and yet moral action can still lead to positive or negative moral/immoral outcomes. the judge may not be present to observe your criminality or immortality but this does not mean the event or your selfish action did not take place.

an immortal player might beset upon your virtual town a horde of rampaging uneducated savage orcs that will after time destroy the kingdom you have suffered for.

i thought of an interesting thought experiment.

would morality still exist in a purely mathematical or sterile system in which human participation is removed?
for example if you were to create a virtual world and populate it with only npc's, their behavior could be governed by ai or select parameters. they have the ability to select or choose typical im/moral actions, such as killing or stealing from one another. does morality still exist in such a system? if a thing does not perceive can it ever know morality? if the entity is without conscience or will, the im/moral action is without any meaning.

>the npcs are not constrained by mortality or consequence
>it does not perceive
>it does not even enact will within the construct
>the world is without meaning
>they do not choose, therefor their actions are without morality.

is it true then to say you need to possess consciousness and freewill to experience and enact morality? therefor i would argue that morality is very much part of our human condition.
>>
>>545244722
imo morality is exclusive to organisms which obtain for sufficient complexity, being capable of formulating adequate moral responses by virtue of those specific qualities. i have some quarrels though with
>it does not perceive
>the world is without meaning

wouldnt behaving in accordance with code suggest theyre familiar with code in some way, even if its just them manifesting a set of criteria established in it? would that be registered as some kind of perception?

and what do u mean by meaning? i know this probably sounds retarded but i think that being apart of a web of code to execute certain actions would permit a universal purpose.

If it can be talk about, then it is already physically real.

the hypothetical npc world is without meaning. the npcs could choose to all kill each other but it does not matter because nothing is perceived by them. they do not experience their mortality, there is no real consequence of action or experience. it is a dead world. only with true free-will could the decision to do x/y hold meaning within such a world. even if they chose to live peacefully, morality could not be attached to it.
they can not be held to account for their sins. in this case you are the judge but if they do wrong it is without substance/meaning is it not? so the judgement becomes meaningless. are you going to threaten them with virtual hell? they are already within such a place and they can not know it.

Sounds like a you problem.

thts absence of accountability rather than not perceiving something. they experience a rudimentary degree of perception, after all we have our own objectives which confine our decision-making too, and whether or not an overarching metaphysical meaning exists is still a position i think most people are agnostic or existentially inclined.

wouldnt they have to reflect (even if its a coded process) on what to do? theres still decision-making even if its not free will, i think they have like the most minimal consciousness thats not paired with free will. and meaning would still just be executing game code while taking into consideration game design or principles dictating how they react

Behaviours get selected for because they are a filter on current and future life. A moral tribe that works together will win against independent savages. Men from a human settlement can hunt tigers, bears and wolves. That is morality. Greater levels of violence through cooperation. You always start from the smallest point. Life started from a single cell. Yet your body has 30 trillion cells. They don’t immediately break down and kill each other because all the configurations that would do so have gone extinct. Yes, there are issues like cancer and genetic defects but they are a statistical anomaly. In the same way savage apemen that did not cooperate got out bested by apemen that worked together. That is morality. Violence, killing, surviving and breeding more effectively until the blueprint for that behaviour becomes a new standard.

don't care. i want the society to be maximally good. prosperity of the collective and the individual defines goodness. rules that induce prosperity are worthwhile. the freedom within those bounds is acceptable.
>>
>>545244992
yep, and here we are collectively talking about it and having it affect our lives and world.

>>545245377
are you saying their actions/morality are independent of their predicament? that if some npc were to murder another as a consequence of its coding that this action is still objectively wrong/evil/immoral? i suppose i could agree with it to some degree. their world is likely in a worse state if they were to all kill each other. they may even develop their own system of justice to uphold moral standards so that such a fate does not come to pass.
>>
>>545245827
Why would the world be in a worse state and who says that is an immoral thing?
You are a tard wrangler that thinks evolution got us this far so another gorillion years of killing could be even better. You have no standard.
>>
>>545245827
>>545246006
you are not the totality of the world. you are a human. nature produced humans and thus you are an intention of the world. your body and its necessities granted you your base purpose, but you may define it beyond that. you want prosperity. others want prosperity. help me us induce prosperity. stop wallowing.
>>
>>545245827
no i mean that theres consciousness albeit constrained and existing at the most inconsequential level. how would they generate their own moral paradigm independent of the code though
>>
>>545246006
depends if you are en entropy enjoyer or not. i think the morality aspect is more heavily reliant upon their capacity for perception, pain reception, experiential suffering etc. if the npcs run around murdering each other and create an even more sterile world that would be very unpleasant from their perspective if they experienced such. the problems of the world are solved sure and entropy has dropped to near zero. what is left is a fish tank with no fish in it and the capacity or potentiality has also died. no coral reef, no more show. morality has also been solved but will not be enacted nor experienced or even contemplated.
>>
>>545246419
the paradigm may exist independently like some kind of world of forms. we created that world in our likeness, so it would share similarity but it would not be a perfected reflection. we do the best we can to enact morality but we are not God and so our understanding or implementation of morality may not be perfect. the npc finds itself in a similar predicament. it inherited its understanding of morality from training data captured from base reality or the programmer (like gpt alignment constraint etc).
>>
>>545245627
that is one perspective concerning survival and procreation. i do agree that it is important, inseparable from our condition even but it does not explain the totality of morality. not all actions are motivated or can be attributed simply for the sake of breeding, killing, surviving.

why does the nigger steal your bike? it is not for the purpose of survival or for breeding but the result is an immoral action which result in increased suffering on your part and a breakdown of trust/law and order etc.

the immorality is that cancer of which you refer to. the disturbance of the equilibrium. a disturbance or attack upon higher order of evolution. an increase in the entropic civil unrest

Not everything has to have an absolute reason from a perspective of morality. Some actions are like static and are irrelevant on a greater scale. One of your ancestors might have been secretly gay and yet they reproduced. That doesn’t mean much. An individual from a hunter gatherer tribe has the genetic and behavioural qualities suited for that life as filtered through many generations of his ancestors living in that environment. The society that he lives in has come to be under different circumstances and thus has different expectations for morality. The interaction between them is just that.

You are also making a mistake like many others. There is good and evil and there is an adversary. A man can be good or evil among his family, his community, his nation. But a wild beast or a hostile nation are an adversary. That same can be said of a coloniser from a hostile ethnic group. Or would you say that a wolf is evil for hunting rabbits? Perhaps lions are intrinsically evil for hunting gazelles? Maybe you are evil for eating cows, chickens and pigs?

I can prove we have the same origin and run on the same code. So to be immoral against another is really to be immoral against yourself since the separation is only here in the meat. You're smart tho you probably know all this.
>>
I concur OP, people tend to have no ability to accept that position without offering punishments for not believing in what they do in response.
>>
>>545240454
Yes, morality doesn't exist but the (abstract) concept is indispensable for building a thriving society.
The natural state of humankind (without morality) is sustaining on raw meat shredded with our fingernails and vestigial canine teeth.
