You do not get to have a moral framework that changes depending on who benefits from the outcome.

I do, though, is the thing. As does all of society. We always have and we always will. And you're lying to yourself if you think you don't take advantage of that flexibility yourself.

it would still be murder unless there was a legitimate justification for doing so. The morality of an action cannot be determined solely by how much we dislike the target.

So in other words.. There's nuance. It's not just how much we dislike the target, there's other stuff to consider too. We need

Context 😲

Either theft is wrong regardless of who the victim is, or your moral standard changes depending on whether you like the target.

Amazing that your 'gotcha' is just two false statements.

Theft isn't wrong regardless of the victim - it's nuanced, just like all crime. That's why we have very complicated legal processes to determine guilt and appropriate punishments.

Our morals don't change depending on whether we like the target - it's that our judgments are based on context.

The cool thing about ethics, morals, principles, etc.. They're all made up. We invented them. They have no objectivity (as far as we know) and therefore can and have changed based on our feelings. "Ethics" is just humans agreeing to do things a certain way because it makes us feel good, or doing things the other way makes us feel bad. There is no objective truth to it that you can so easily plug in a problem and get an objective answer.

Or is the world you want to live in just completely binary? No room for nuance?

Well, what am I supposed to label you as? The lady got Calgary and the guy got Ottawa. Are you claiming all of Canada? Making your label "Guy from the entirety of Canada"

YOU are the one that cannot tell the difference! You seem to not know where you are.

You: Don't believe it! It's a shitpost!

Everyone: Haha Yeah it's a shitpost. That's... Why we're here.

You: No, you don't get it! It's not real!

Everyone: Yeah, we know.

You: I'm the only one who knew!!

According to who?

Also, what's the difference? If I down vote you to bury your comment for being irrelevant, poorly worded, bad faith, etc. or down vote you because I don't like your comment, the result is the same.

I found Florisboard's swipe dictionary to be.. Weird. Like making up words or acronyms, or just suggesting words no one would ever use.

But, Heliboard lets you import swipe dictionaries, so you can get Gboard's without using Gboard.

Use Steam.

Download Battle.net Launcher.

Add it as non steam game.

Run it and install like normal.

Do not sign in. Close it.

In a terminal, type this: find ~ -name Battle.net

Look for a line like: /home/you/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compdata/#############/pfx/drive_c/....

Those ###s are Battle.net's steam ID on your system.

Back on Steam, right-click Battle.net and click Properties.

Change the Target line to: "/home/you/.steam/steam/steamapps/compdata/your numbers/pfx/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Battle.net/Battle.net Launcher.exe"

Set Compatibility to Proton 10 beta.

Now launch Battle.net and install WoW.
