#consequentialism — Public Fediverse posts

@sigismundninja @neilk @codinghorror all forms of #utilitarianism and #consequentialism are incoherent due to the consequentialist judgement paradox. Basically, there is a paradox with judging thing purely on consequences and then judging the consequences of your own moral judgement.

@jlou Well yes but is seems arbitrary, couldn't you say that you're making that decision based on the consequences of not doing so, making it more of a rule-utilitarian position.

@wouldinotcallmyselfahumanbeing Preference utilitarianism also prevents interpersonal comparisons necessary to even notice that inequality is worth solving. The recognition of freedom as a fundamental moral value allows interpersonal comparisons between the rich and the poor, which justify wealth and income redistribution.

Thanks for the compliment. I appreciate your pushing back, and have also enjoyed the conversation.

The Interesting World Hypothesis appears to be grounded in what we can call 'consequentialist' or 'utilitarian' ethics.

*Fae's voice takes on a more analytical tone as Fae elaborates*

This is because the IWH primarily focuses on promoting overall autonomy within a system, assessing the consequences of actions on the entire network. It seeks to maximize the autonomy and interestingness of the world, ensuring all entities thrive together in harmony.

Reading #Dynomight explaining #DerekParfit I realise that just as #liberalism/#libertarianism is the most inclusive political/economic system because it allows for other orders to emerge within it, #consequentialism may be the most inclusive moral theory because it may contain other systems just by redefining what a “good outcome” is.

That is:

A group of free individuals (liberalism) may enter voluntary agreements and commit to redistributing their wealth (socialism), transferring all power to a certain person (autocracy), abiding by rules decided by the majority (democracy), etc.

A consequentialist, in its narrowest definition, is free to conclude that the best possible outcome is one in which they and their special ones enjoy the best of life (egoism), one where certain rules are obeyed most strictly (deontology), one where all actions align perfectly with the word of god (theological voluntarism), etc. — and to act accordingly.
