1-15-11 **Taking on QDragon** A Question of Moral Utility

[thereforeithought]

What do you know....I'm unblocked! Well, all I wanted to say is, he must have a plasma bulb fetish. Look at the handwork on that bulb!!

[thereforeithought]

unblocked?

[extion]

lol, I can't get over how cool Shawn thinks he is. Seriously. What a douchebag.

[TinyCoconut]

Shawn doesn't even know what objective morality is.

Whenever Shawn uses the word 'objective', he really means 'authoritarian'.

His morality is based entirely on the fact that his God is the supreme dictator of the universe. Hence, Shawn's morality is simply 'might makes right'.

Shawn's morality is about as utilitarian as you can get; if you don't obey, then you suffer an unimaginably horrifying punishment. If you do obey, then you are rewarded with every pleasure you might ever desire.

[Idoloish]

I just realized. VFX looks like the little brother from Black Cadillac. Good movie, by the way, if you're a car enthusiast into classic cars (like myself). Otherwise, I wouldn't recommend it.

[RWDY]

He is as annoying as ever.

[thedayitriedtodie]

thumbs up if u think shawn watches porn in there...

[thedayitriedtodie]

he's Merlin.

[Fanden2]

Im going to Hell. I earned my horns.

[izeck]

This video is bullshit.

[polemius01]

After his behavior on YouTube (and probably his future behavior), I can't really take VFX's speechifying om morality seriously.

His claim that QDragon's morality is "utilitarian" is flawed. Nowhere does QD say that "usefulness" is the aim, but the betterment of society (i.e, all people).

The voyeurism example (one person benefits) indicates that VFX either doesn't, or refuses to, understand QD's thought.

I am curious as to what TF and DPR have to say about his return. I haven't noticed any video uploads regarding this. Nor have I caught a Magic Sammich show in a while.

Anyone have a link to something I have missed?

[PurlyGold]

And after the video ended.. He started watching pornography

[PurlyGold]

@PurlyGold No, scratch that. Just remembered he doesn't need porn. He just watches himself in the mirror :(

[Symos]

@PurlyGold Probably faps to that video he made to Barking Atheist.

[themsfightinwoids]

The way he strokes his plasma bulb at the start is soooo creepy.

[Ryoka242]

"where is the Law, written, that benefiting society is the moral thing to do" Read your fucking bible you twat.

He also argues that, because we eat/in slave/hunt other animals that we our society is hurting other animals and lifeforms.. how is our society, by eating other animals hurting, hurting our society? its call survival. Damn Shawn is a fucking moron. A 14 y/o could debunk shawn's statements.

[StreetlightEagle]

Maybe I'm wrong, but Qdragon's ethics sound more Kantian than they do utilitarian?

[Symos]

The possibility of human life being a blight on the universe huh? An interesting idea considering on the scale of it, we are hardly a spec of dust in this universe.

[Symos]

@Symos In addition. I find it ironic he seems to use voyuerism as an example of what might not be good when his god alledgly is able to see every action and every thought every human has or does.
