How should we respond to future (ongoing?) moral & epistemic revolutions like Sentientism?
- Speed up 💚
- Slow down ❌
- Moral uncertainty (pluralism?) 💚
- Value uncertainty (pluralism?) 💚
- Flex morals/institutions/tech 💚
- Vague guilt & do nothing🤷
- Moral paralysis! 🤷
Of course, in many cases it's not epistemic or moral uncertainty that prevent a "future moral revolution" from being accepted as something we should do or stop right now. It's powerful, ubiquitous, relentless, well-funded social norm indoctrination about what's "normal" & good.
