to grok Good

Post by Advocate »

Good has the misfortune in English of opposing both bad (effects) and evil (intents).

Good is contingent on the salience, perspective, and priorities of everyone involved.

Group goods can Only be understood on relation to shared priorities.

Must individual good always match group good, and if it does not, is that bad?

Whether individual or communal good, it is only necessary and always sufficient to grok bad and evil. To grok bad and evil, it is necessary and sufficient to grok good. Join the circle wherever you like!

No. Yes. Sort of. It's complicated.

It is not necessarily bad, but it always absolutely not all right.
