And culture imo is never inseparable from political philosophy. U can see this when amerikans in the forum say that making epic gritty memes is doing socialism, bc we’re so alienated from any ability to change amerikan politics that we engage in little micro-cultural acts and glom onto anything that seems 2 promise a sense of community with others. If I make the gritty meme and laugh at the gritty meme, I embody the philosophy of the ideal “gritty socialist” which I have created along with other, and this forms a substitute for actually doing anything in the real world , or “irl” as I call it, especially since people might not even have the ability to act politically with other irl at all I guess speaking in terms of morality the same thing applies, no matter how much we want to say gently caress to the system, we always must remember we embody elements of it and things like pure selfishness, alienation and frustration find themselves as part of one’s morality and personal politics. So it is one thing to proclaim a morality for itself, and another to embody it through thought and action. Sorry if this is irrelevant, wanted to contribute but I don’t have much to say about the concept of morality in and of itself
