I had this argument with a Muslim academic arguing for collectivism. He felt that people should be able to set up their own collectives & hold all members to certain rules but said he would leave one which didn't match his values so this just sounded like moral communities.https://twitter.com/Mecanek/status/996377952064540672 …

I guess that relies on how broadly you define a moral community - I wouldn't call Twitters ToS a moral code, nor would i call our discussions about morality unique to a particular community as we have no real connection between us.

No, I'm just referring to your choice of who you follow and talk to. A self-selected community. Twitter is not a moral community.

In this case, the Muslim man was talking about a proper collective but the way he allowed for people to choose their own and come & go and set up with like-minded people, it was just a formalised version of what we all do - surround ourselves with people who get us & share values
