âdirect altruistic focus strategically so as to be of positive utilityâ
Vague and evasive. Say what you mean. If you want to keep poor people poor until some new technology comes out, you should say that. If you donât think further development will ever be justified, you should say that (so that your contention can be discarded as absurd and impractical)
I mean spending money and energy on animal welfare or some other positive cause rather than on alleviating poverty.
Doesnât that sound more like âdirect altruistic focus strategically so as to be of positive utilityâ than does the âabsurd and impracticalâ contention that âfurther development will [not] ever be justifiedâ?
