sometimes you're allowed to take a mulligan about thinking about whether you're veering a little too close to skipping any kind of meta-ethics right without passing go to straight dawkins teleologist shit and weighing if panzer is off the acceptability-meter for genetic drift and showing group-aware altruism does nothing. that selfish-reward by being a good guy just ain't there, but the urge to start pecking him to death with the rest of the healthy chicks do when they've gotta share a nest/forum with a disfigured and ill sibling.
