Yeah I share the sentiment, but I remember finding the songs for mixtapes on... the radio, where I didn't really have a say on what's playing. Algorithms can be a force for good sometimes.

I don't think so. You said "everything about morality is relative", what do you subscribe to?

[–] VeganBtw@piefed.social 2 points 6 days ago

I'm talking about normative ethics, not descriptive.

I do not adhere to moral relativity at all. It is, I think, an untenable position that makes pedophiles and genocides as valid as charity work and kids' hospitals.

Also, how can you believe absolutely that there are no moral absolutes? It was pointed as illogical more than a couple millennia ago.

I didn't say that, and yeah, almost all forms of military is just a waste, sorry.

This is just moral luck. My opinion is that your work was very unethical from the get-go and you just happened to be happy with the outcome. It's like saying you are ashamed of speeding in your car, until some day, when you crashed into Elon Musk.
