RE: Being Individually Moral but Forced to Live Among Collective Immorality

in #philosophy6 years ago (edited)

If you refer to not culture-specific moralities (for those are objective in a sense), but a personal morality, then I believe you've already shown one way of distinguishing subjective morality from objective morality. If subjective then morality is unstable, changing with the mood and desire of the person, and consequently always unclear, never certain; and because in effect he is subject to himself, rather than to an higher authority, this morality therefore is not a morality at all, only a self-conceited capriciousness.

Sort:  

Yeah, that could be a tool. But only few people i think can achieve it. Those that have the independent thought to see whats wrong with society. Most people tend to fit in and seek societal validation and their morality overlaps societal morality.

Thank you for responding
