Your faux ethical dilemma regarding the organ transplant can only exist in a vaccum (Though you may be right that people do ENGAGE IN ethical emotivism). As I see it, your proposition isn't a singular linear line of reasoning. How you're thinking about it seems to be this: If you can -1 to +5 should you do that. But really your proposition is the intersection of several constituent elements regarding personal property rights (Does the person own their organs), consent (Is it ethical to take something from someone else without consent), authority (Is it ethical for a "We" to have authority over an individual). So, if yes (you ought to take the organs) do you have to reconcile with the constituent elements of the proposition? If it's ethical for "a group to take the organs from 1 to save 5 people" is it, then, also ethical for "a group to take the property of an individual without their consent" (in a broader sense)? Or are you just making a 1 time exception for this guy? Or is whether or not it's ethical contingent on what you're taking and whether or not you're saving lives? You see the distinction I'm trying to make, right? Maybe I'm not understanding it properly.
Hym "To me it just sounds like a repackaging of the trolley problem. And I don't see how it's incompatible with utilitarianism because if you aim to maximize pleasure then it's either a total of 1 unit of pleasure (1 person who continues to live so they can experience pleasure) or 5 units... Maybe I'm misinterpreting what you're saying... I guess the distinction between the trolly problem and your thing IS the intersection of constituent elements. Rather than just deciding whether or not to switch the tracks you're deliberately putting a guy ON THE TRACK. So it's a little more direct I guess... You're slightly more culpable in the outcome... That's a good one though. That aside, I think ethical emotivism is something people engage in rather than the default. I do still think you can create a mathematical ethical scale. Like my thing! I kill a kid (-2), you kill me (-1), I get my stuff back (+1). That's all I got for now. Bring it back up later maybe I'll come up with something else. Hopefully that isn't too incoherent to understand."

Hym "Breaking news! I'm running out of 'things that go in ovens' to call him. A Thanksgiving turkey! Living lasagna! Assorted bakery foods. Muffin (a repeat), Brownies (Which SOUNDS racist but isn't), Birthday Cake (Just seems lazy), A ziti? Baked ziti? I don't even know what that is. It's hard to think of non-bakery things. Meatloaf (another repeat). Roast beef? Do jews have baked goods? That'd be like a poptart cooking a poptart, wouldn't it? Pizza. Calzones. A baby. You can cook a baby in an oven. So, that counts... Hmmm... Pie. Obviously. Stuffed hashbrowns... I need to cook more."

Both of the jobs I’m working at gave me the same line about them working their way up just like everyone else.
Hym “And no. It isn’t ‘like everyone else’ because everyone else isn’t going to be promoted (preferentially) up the ladder. I don’t care that you were a cashier when you we 16. The outcome was predetermined. The world is one of open doors for the nepotistic offspring of these people. Whereas regular people have to pick the locks manually and sign themselves up as cronies and hope to be given a key. And you can say that generational wealth only lasts 3 generations, motherfucker, that’s all of the people the you know throughout you’re life. You don’t give a shit about anything that exists outside of your own experiential reality. What happens to your great grandkids? You’ll be too dead to care. Unless you believe in an immortal soul. Which Jordan Peterson acts like he doesn’t when he says Neiztsche is dead and, therefore, doesn’t care what happens. Now you say, ‘Well, start a business.’ Not everyone can be a business owner in a world that is dependent on wage slaves. There is a finite amount of real estate and the is a finite amount of digital real estate. Both of which are owned and mediated by people who will pass ownership down to their nepotistic offspring (regardless of their merit). Look at what happened to Parlor. Kicked off of the servers.

Now you say ‘then make your own server or buy land.’ With who’s rich daddy’s seed money? From who? Make the money myself? How is anyone going to going to reasonably do that without catching a break? Maybe I’ll be a c-list TV celebrity and then intern myself at a up and coming entertainment endeavor. Then when it takes off, I’ll take off with it. And, at the same time, I don’t have to do any of that. I don’t have to beat up your wife to prove true the assertion that I can beat up your wife. It’s all just nepotism masquerading as meritocracy. That’s where your social Lysenkoism leads us. It makes one person better than everyone and then their nepotistic offspring are elevated by association. Except your piece of shit kids aren’t better than anyone. You’re not better than anyone. And in true xerox of a xerox fashion, society always deteriorates. And it’s going to be the same with that cripple. He’s going to have the only thing that matters passed down to him (ownership) and he can do whatever he wants with it. Sell it off and opt out of life. Play pretend businessman. It doesn’t matter. The whole thing is a farce.”

You're a charlatan with a God complex. What ever you so will fail and literally everything I do suceeds. I need to be made to fail artificially for you to pretend to be competent and play thought leader.
