      all of the utilitarians angrily protesting in the replies should consider whether theyre making anyones lives better by doing so instead of knitting mosquito nets or identifying people to vivisect so that their organs can be redistributed to transplant patients to maximize QALYs

          the problem with utilitarianism is usually a heartbreaking lack of imagination, you can be a utilitarian who hates utilitarians because you agree with everything you've written here

          Replying to @eigenrobot

          I read Omelas as a utilitarian critique of the poorly thought out ethics of people who grandstand about the one suffering child. In this world that isn't powered by the suffering of a child, there are tons of people who suffer as bad or worse, constantly, every day

          and it doesn't even produce a paradise. You can't call Omelas bad without condemning the world you prefer much more harshly.

          This tweet got me thinking and now I think Omelas is good. Thinking is dangerous! Thanks!
