I 7
Subjectivity/ethics/P. Singer: The thesis that ethical principles were based on personal subjective attitudes is a heavier ((s) more fine-grained) form of relativism.
>Relativism, >Fine-grained/coarse-grained.
For example, if someone says it is bad to harm animals, he expresses only his opinion, which would mean that there is no place for ethical disputes.
>Animals, >Ethics, >Morals, >Norms, >Community.
I 7
Subjectivity/Subjective Ethics/Subjectivism/P. Singer: subjectivity is based on the fact that it is possible to think about ethics.
Problem: it could be that we think about ethics without understanding how this can happen at all. We must not lose the basics here.
>Subjects, >Actions, >Interests, >Values.
