MORALITY

Falsify the following statement:

The only displays, words or deeds that are not criminal, unethical, or immoral consist of productive, fully informed, warrantied, voluntary transfer of demonstrated interests, free of imposition upon the costs of the demonstrated interests of others – a condition we call ‘reciprocity’ (PRODUCTIVITY, GAIN)

Because only such display, word, and deed, avoids the production of the incentive for retaliation for imposition of costs against against demonstrated interests, and as a consequence the continuous cumulative reversal of the incentives to cooperate, rather than return to the natural self and group interest to engage in boycott, parasitism, or predation. (COST, LOSS )

As such any display word or deed that is not immoral is either amoral or moral – where we demarcate the amoral from the moral by the requirement under morality for transfer of increases in demonstrated interests directly or indirectly by externality. (INVESTMENT)

Individuals demonstrate instinctual differences in moral biases, and seek to advance those biases as rather than moral preference but moral weight and measure, when such biases are merely expressions of genetic and reproductive interests, and as such serve as negotiating positions – terms of voluntary cooperation. (ADVERTISING)

Groups of individuals produce compromise norms that satisfy these same criteria. (MARKETS)

But in all cases, via negativa, all conflicts are decidable by tests of reciprocity – which is precisely how all cases in the world are judged. (JURISPRUDENCE)

In other words: morality is empirical. It’s Reciprocity within the limits of individual, normative, or universal demands.

(You won’t falsify that.)
