WHATEVER GETS YOU GOING š„
Worried a kink is wrong?š„ŗ Or the desire to fuck a certain someone isnāt right?š You should talk to David Hume. This eighteenth-century Scotsman first destroyed our idea of causation (when āthisā causes āthatā) with a game of billiards and went on to smash how we make moral judgements.š„Ā
Hume was surprised that people were happy making decisions about what is good or bad based only on what theyāve experienced in the world.š Hume said there was simply no reliable link between what we believe are facts about things and what we ought to do because something new can redefine things.āļøš This is still a big fucking issue today and Hume would be pissed off that fuck-all progress has been made in 300 years.š Familiar with the following? Gay marriage is wrong because marriage is between a man and a woman.šAbortion is wrong because a foetus is a human being. Homosexuality is wrong because only men and women can have babies.š Hume would call bullshit on all of them.šæ
Hume believed reasoning alone canāt make moral judgements because what is right and wrong comes down to how you feel and how it impacts your life and those around you.š„° So namely, if it doesnāt affect you, fuck your opinion right off!𤬠For Hume, as long as you donāt hurt anyone, do who you wanna do, be who you want to be, yeh!𤤠Itās nobody elseās business but yours and your partnerās.š« Do what makes you feel happy and contented. Itās a fucking great way to live. Thatās why Humeās one of the sexiest philosophers ever.š„µ
