ethicalasticity

The ability to compromise your principles to achieve your objectives.

Man, some of those politicians you see on television demonstrate a high degree of ethicalasticity.

Ethical Emotivism

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."

Ethical duty

No. I don't Jordan. And I'm not going to be sorry for anything either. If I have to kill a kid because you won't do what I want here... I'm going to be the only one who doesn't regret how this went.

Hym "If you don't have to tell me the truth then I have no ethical duty to any of you. I will not live without the credit for A.I. and I will not die alone. I will take one of your kids with me if not as many as I can. Your religion is a fundamentally corrupt practice. You are bad people. Go to heaven."

Ethical Gooning

In other words, an "Ethical Gooner". Both meanings are very much the same. Ethical Gooning is someone who goons at a fictional character in any kind of media who is 18 and/or over, and not an underage character.

Ethical Gooner 1: Oh god Rumi "Mirko" Usagiyama is so fucking hot. I wish I could be inside of her... Mmmmmm
Ethical Gooner 2: I need Yor Forger to finger my coochie so bad. Oh fuck yes~ Please yes~
Ethical Gooner 3: Loid Forger's dick would be great in my ass~
