Listen "Episode 118 - The difference between “moralising” and solving a moral problem"
Episode Synopsis
Moralising
Start from a situation that they consider a moral problem
Something immoral, unfair
But then …
Reverting to blaming the people,
generalizing from a specific event to general characteristics of the person in question or groups of people
Excluding the possibility that people can learn from mistakes
Appealing to condemnation of those people
Signaling that you are not one of those people, that you have more truth
Solving a moral problem is the opposite
Identifying the problem, even asking if it is a real moral problem
Go into the specifics of the problem, the context, the actual events, criticisms on certain claims about the event … consider all your claims fallible, you seek more truth
Propose and test solutions
