All right,

I'm all in you from Free Demand?

A great question from Facebook, from Robert.

You've talked about universal morality.

Is there anything to be done, or is there any way to work with people whose morality is screwed?

For example, politicians who believe might makes right and that the state has the

authority to do whatever it wants to as citizens for the greater good.

politicians it's funny because they don't reject moral standards. What they do is

they claim universal morality as a cloak for their power addiction, right?

That is the really, really tragic thing, is that they mimic morality. I mean predators mimic the

So a predator will mimic that which is harmless or beneficial to you in order to get close enough to pray on you and everyone talks about the common good, but the common good is the new superstitious god of the ancient witch doctors, right?

So the ancient witch doctors would say

that the tribal gods have needs and preferences and morals and goals and desires and plans, but you as a non-Witch

doctor have no access to them, so you're just going to have to trust me who is the witch doctor to tell you what the tribal gods want you to do.

And if you don't believe that, then you're a blasphemer who must be ostracized, tortured, killed, whatever, right?

You must be punished.

So of course, you invent an imaginary perfect entity

that has no voice, presence, or will of its own, and then you claim to speak for that,

those tribal gods or that tribal god,

you claim to speak for that tribal god,
