bh11235, to comicstrips in Dunning-Kruger

The 0th order Dunning Kruger effect is mere stupidity. The n+1 order Dunning Kruger effect is the observation that the more you are subject to the nth order Dunning Kruger effect, the less you believe yourself subject to it. The observation that the effect holds true for all n > 0 is itself the ω order Dunning Kruger effect, and so on. There is a Dunning Kruger effect for every ordinal.

What a deplorable take. Is the 10-year-old child living in the USA who says “I love my country” morally responsible for the war in Iraq? Is the 10-year-old Saudi Arabian saying “I love my country” morally responsible for 9/11? By what mechanism does your standard spare any human being at all, ever, from total moral condemnation?

Nothing quite like that magical moment where you’ve been walking lost and confused for an hour around a foreign city and your last 4 attempts to find a place to eat have failed, and you say “ugh all right fine” and look for the nearest MacDonald’s.

The way I see it you are under no obligation to bite that bullet just because of your understandable sentiment. It may be true that e.g. “My organs won’t go to Catholics” and “My organs won’t go to serial killers” are two sentences that have a similar structure, but this doesn’t at all mean they have the same moral weight, or that we as a society are compelled in some way to treat them equally.

From my point of view you’ve just given an excellent argument against the philosophy that I will call, for lack of a better term, “beep-boop utilitarianism”. Allowing such a donation has an immediate, tangible and quantifiable benefit; but the norm you are eroding by doing so is much more valuable, and may be impossible to renegotiate if lost.

In a certain sense it is the opposite of Hanlon’s razor. In the face of difficult behavior, Hanlon’s razor encourages even-mindedness (“they probably mean well”) whereas Grey’s law encourages conflict (“even if they do, so WHAT”).
