#on the basis of them being morally reprehensible

LIVE

Quick reminder that there’s an enormous difference between an ideology (whether spiritual, philosophical, political, or anything else) rejecting good and evil as a clear-cut dichotomy, and an ideology presenting itself as above good and evil.

Recognising that life is full of nuance, many values are subjective, and few things are entirely pure or entirely monstrous, is a valid and beneficial outlook to have.

Believing that an ideology is superior to morality is a very, verycommon mechanism used by cults and extremist groups to justify the harm they (wish to) cause.

If a group you are involved with presents duty, necessity and loyalty as more important than anything else, and views morality not just as grey, but as nonexistent - run.
