BROKE: debating deontological vs consequentialism implications of voter behavior

WOKE: debating deontology itself vs consequentialism itself

BESPOKE: virtue ethics

Jake Grumbach @jakemgrumbach.bsky.social · Feb 16

Every four years we debate the deontological versus consequentialist moral implications of voter behavior :)

War is not a morality play.

The relevant question isn’t: Are the targets bad people who have done bad things?

The relevant question is: Will going to war make things better, achieving something that’s worth the death and suffering it causes?

@bloomfilters.plus

control devil, extensive knowledge, amoral, complete performance and imitation, perfectly cultivated to be both the mother and the wife, hard utilitarian consequentialism, chained by a subservient purpose rather than a transcendental rule,

The term 'consequentialism' may also be due to Anscombe's MMP (1958): "the difference between old-fashioned Utilitarianism and that consequentialism, as I name it …"

The OED's earliest evidence for consequentialism is from 1969 (J. Cargile).

A moral philosophy paper recently written by me, presenting a new liar paradox-like argument about consequentialism.

It would be great if you could share this to promote my work, thank you :
