Laws alone don’t hold societies together.

What we’re losing isn’t just legal coherence — it’s moral coherence.

This essay explores:
• Why relativism destabilizes systems
• The role of religion in shaping ethics
• Whether universal values are still possible

We built modern society on law, institutions, & systems.
But something is breaking.

Not politically. Not economically.

Morally.

Law can regulate behavior.
But it cannot create meaning, virtue, or trust.

Without shared moral foundations, systems become hollow.

This essay argues that societies cannot function without shared moral foundations

@futurebird this is a fantastic example of the conservative imperative: people "belong" in specific places - literally and figuratively.

Being "out of place" is the worst sin. It must be stopped at all cost.

It's also why they disdain empathy and harm mitigation. Punishment is what keeps people in line.

When we see the world around us, sometimes we see the beauty in it and sometimes the ugly. If we are not seeing the ugly at least as often as we see the beauty, we are complicit in making the world a crueler place for some people. And sometimes, sadly but truthfully, we have to allow for a crueler world, in return for better mental health.

If at any point in the future I am found guilty of having taken a stand that wasn’t founded on a deeper understanding of social justice, privilege, oppression, power structures etc., please rest assured that at that point, my understanding does indeed get deeper #MoralFramework

my goal is to get to a place where i don’t judge people on *anything* other than their values. everything else is either not their choice, and/or is none of my business. #MoralFramework

the middle class is so fucked up in that it shames spending of money but seeks and glorifies its accumulation. how much more ass backwards could your values be?
