You would think it was ridiculous. Turns out it isn’t. It was just very, very, difficult.
Why?
Self Determination > Sovereignty > Demonstrated Interests > Reciprocity.
So irreciprocity (unethical, immoral, ‘evil’) is universal, even if the portfolio of norms varies by culture and context, therefore we do not solve for morality but for immorality. If it is not immoral (irreciprocal) then it is either amoral(irrelevant) or moral.
We can find no exception to this rule throughout all of history. We can find errors in norms and then reform them, but we find no cases where this rule does not hold up.
The reason is quite simple. It’s just physics.
