And I’m being serious. I feel like there might be an argument there, I just don’t understand it. Can someone please “steelman” that argument for me?

    Morals and ethics are subjective and based on emotions. That’s why science doesn’t say what’s good or bad. I don’t think you can prove or disprove this argument. People who are strongly focused on Gaza and simply reject views that challenge their own.

      Personally I don’t see morals as entirely subjective.

      I’d say that ‘worst possible misery for everyone’ is objectively bad and any attempt to move away from that is better.
