Ethical Gooning

Ethical gooning is a form of gooning where the individual only consumes porn and other forms of NSFW media in a way where:

1. All characters are canonically (or clearly by their depiction) 18+.

2. They know, understand, and like the character beyond their mere sexual appeal.

3. They do their best to credit artists and other creators if they edit or repurpose their work.

Overall, the ethical gooner cares for and derives pleasure from other things beyond mere objectification or blind consumption of porn and NSFW media.

This is to especially juxtapose themselves to forms of gooning, where individuals that generate ignorance and mindsets that sexualize and objectify everything due to their blind consumption.
Person 1: I like Yor Foger because she's a cool character with an amazing character in SpyXFamily while being hot as fuck. You only like her for the later. We are not the same.

Person 2: Aren't all are you crusty gooners the same?

Person 1: No, I engage in ethical gooning unlike others.

Ethical Birder

An oxymoron.

It is speaking about the state of bird photographers who will do anything to take a great photo of wildlife. The list of actions include:

1. Feeding of wild birds
2. Stepping on wild birds 'by accident' (OBVIOUSLY they just dont want others to get the same photo opportunity)
3. Recommend culling of bird's native predators

4. Pushing their way around with their massive lens to get a good position and refuse to move even if obstructing the path
5. Witholding information of bird locality, even if information would be vital for ornithologist conducting avian research
6. Breaking local rules and entering restricted areas, endangering lives of those around them
7. Handling of wild animals to prevent them from disturbing their subject
8. Unnecessary destruction of vegetation in wild areas to get clearer view of the bird
Find me an ethical birder in this day and age and I will bow to them.

Scalable ethics

Scalable Ethics is the concept that corporations have a threshold where the forces of maximising profit and growth come into conflict with their ethical or environmental practices, values, and aspirations. It's a term used to interrogate the authenticity of ‘corporate social responsibility’ practices and publicity.
Is this a case of scalable ethics, cutting sustainability initiatives to improve profits?

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

Jordan Peterson defines it as "Voluntary and repeatable transactions" which, you know, SOUNDS good but I don't quite think it's a consistent standard for "ethical" or "How things ought to be." It's just not enough. And it's funny that in his consideration for "what constitutes an ethical business" that the EMPLOYEES aren't even an afterthought! As long as the customers and suppliers are acting voluntarily what happens to the employees is irrelevant apparently!

Hym "So... By that logic, TAXES are unethical. WORK is unethical. If we accept 'Voluntary and repeatable' as the definition of 'Ethical' that actually makes for a solid argument for universal basic income....
Work is not voluntary; it's coercive (Work for me or anyone else OR live a life of privation) and I don't want to keep doing it under threat of privation, so, not repeatable. Universal basic income would make work voluntarily. Therefore, we are ethically obligated to institute some form of universal basic income. Prostitution would also be considered ethical. You could say that a pimp exploits the labor of someone who might not have any better options but... How's that any different from what a business owner does? Other than the fact that a pimp doesn't pay taxes. And we've already established that taxes are unethical. DRAG SHOWS are ALSO ethical as anyone who goes to a drag show is there voluntarily. Even if they were to bring THEIR OWN (And NOT OTHER PEOPLE'S) kids drag shows are both voluntary and repeatable. Seriously. It's like he doesn't even think before he opens his mouth. Every time he does it he dismantles the arguments of his political allies. It's like he's just winging it up there. At the same time, we don't necessarily accept that definition. There CAN be ethical compulsion. Which is the opposite of 'voluntary.' I mean, if a serial rapist doesn't want to live in a cage; I'd say you OUGHT to put him in one ANYWAYS. So, there's and example of ETHICAL compulsion that contradicts Jordan's definition of ethical.... Whaaaaat else.... Hmm.... Running out of characters..... Hmm... I'll come back to it...."
