Which widely held beliefs are you most confident are actually bullshit?

If your ethics are broken you're more likely to have to warp your epistemology to justify them.

If your epistemology is broken there's more risk your ethics will be harmfully warped to fit.

Instead: "Evidence, reason & compassion for all sentient beings"? #Sentientism

When you’re doing moral philosophy - if you don’t specify that non-human sentient beings are included in your moral scope – nearly everyone will assume you’re only talking about humans.

Please be clear. & if you are excluding non-human sentients – you’ve made a terrible mistake.

There’s no point having a brilliant #metaethics & #ethics if your scope of moral consideration excludes valid moral patients (i.e. sentient beings).

Moral scope matters. & it isn't just humans.

Imagine agreeing that suffering is bad and flourishing is good… but then only caring about the suffering and flourishing of some sentient beings 🤷

Do wild animals matter? What (if anything) should we do about it?

Fascinating thesis by @ludwig_raal taking a #Sentientist approach re: wild animal ethics: https://scholar.sun.ac.za/handle/10019.1/124595

"Better Never to Have Been in the Wild: A Case for Weak Wildlife #Antinatalism."

Such a pleasure to talk to Nicolas Treich @Treich13 yesterday about the new field of #SentientistEconomics.

(Yes, every field of human thought is improved by putting "#Sentientist" in front of it 🙂)

Out soon on the #Sentientism YouTube & Podcast.
