If I’m not mistaken you are averse to the moral relativism that much of postmodernism is committed to? Does that sound right?
-
Yes, I could set out my moral values and I think I have in various essays but I decline to put labels on it because then people pick at off-centre definitions. Enlightenment liberalism, humanism, universal human rights fit me.

But the idea that insults violate a moral principle may well be justified with reference to enlightenment thought, no? Utilitarian with reference to net happiness; Kantians, I suppose, would see common courtesy as an imperfect duty.
