When We Put Morality Over Truth Free Speech Dies
When we put morality over truth we censor reality itself. Eventually you wouldn’t know what is the truth and what is in place for your moral or ethical benefit. Then the question becomes if we can’t know the difference, then how can we operate in society effectively? The wave of normative moral relativism coming from the political left is troublesome to say the least. They are actively pushing for things like violence against minors under the guise of moral virtue. The issue is that most people don't care about or have much understanding of philosophy because it's more or less been removed from education so they don't even notice these things coming out in debates. Normative moral relativism is where you can push for something that "ought to" be true based on YOUR morality even though you are aware that others disagree. It's largely bout the tolerance or intolerance we allow or excuse based on our moral values. Normative moral relativism encourages and permits extremists like people who call for violence against minors. If we omit these things, they will become normalized and eventually truth and facts won't matter. Whatever normative moral relativists decide ought to be, will be.

It is not morality. Today everyone is screaming about "rights" but these same people do not wish to talk about responsibility. You see your rights become someone else's responsibility.
In today's world of increasing censorship, and people crying about hurt feelings, because of the above, your right to not be offended becomes my responsibility to not offend.
In other words i become responsible for YOUR FEELINGS. And you HAVE NO RIGHT to make me responsible for YOUR LACK OF CONTROL of your YOUR EMOTIONS.
I know it's not morality. If you watch the video I'm talking about the fact that the rhetoric being used is normative moral relativism which is criticized by philosophers and widely unaccepted
