Honestly. I get accused of word salad, but then some idiot or other will argue hoppe makes sense. Well, you know, that’s just because he says what you want to hear, and what you want to hear makes sense to your intuitions, and what makes sense to your intuitions is that which corresponds to your moral instincts. In other words, you are victim of suggestion using fictionalism, just as I have argued for years now. The conditions you make moral judgements by are not the conditions that exist. They are merely your cognitive biases, and your cognitive biases are merely reflections of your reproductive(survival, competitive) strategy. Meaning? Abrahamism in the ancient and the modern worlds finds useful idiots all too easily.
