God some people are so iffy. I'm glad you have the time to get stuck up about moral annoyances but some people don't have that luxury
#the luxury being a working moral compass or understanding of social morality#do you know how many times I've had to question my own humanity because I can't understand things other people call wrong or immoral#even my bloody parents called me cold-blooded and not human and a monster#which coming from them would be like the ocean calling a puddle wet#so as a result I got a serious case of morality ocd that convinced me I'm a horrible monster whenever I disagree with someone about morals#and then I had to come up with my own moral compass since my one was clearly not working and the people around me were abusive arses#which then led me to the question of: 'what makes something immoral?'#google's definition is 'a person or behavior that conscientiously goes against accepted morals'#which was a problem since I couldn't understand accepted morals#so I had to come up with my own definition of something that is immoral#which ended up being 'an action that actively or by proxy brings about harm to others'#and if it were a choice between two harmful things then choose one that does the least harm#and if they're equally harmful then choose the one that you like the most#and anything else I personally dislike is classified as a 'moral annoyance'#an example of a moral annoyance would be cannibalism#do I like cannibalism and would ever do it? no#but if a person were to go around eating discarded donor organs then I probably wouldn't care#I mean#no one died and the person who had that organ clearly doesn't need it anymore and it was discarded anyway#onto a less extreme example would be the problem of label infighting in the queer community#a moral annoyance nonetheless
