  1. I will be presenting culturally subjective ideas of philosophers
  2. like rud Karl Marx and fredrich. N
  3. It will be based on why a culturally
  4. subjective ethic is reasonable than a metaphysical one.
  5. So to start off, um what is culturally subjective,
  6. culturally subjective is the idea that everything that
  7. we experience and the consciousness that we gain
  8. is built around beliefs, ideas, attitudes and assumptions.
  9. As a saying, everything is influenced by something.
  10. People create their own understanding of right wrong, just unjust, ethical,
  11. unethical
  12. and change is not just done by culture, but also by Time
  13. So philosophers who dive deeper into culturally subjective ideas would be Marx,
  14. Nishi
  15. Freud and Gilligan,
  16. What is metaphysically subjective,
  17. metaphysical subjective are the right and wrong values
  18. that exist and depend on one's self understandings,
  19. experiences and interactions with them
  20. to understand or accept a concept or idea. It is passed through rationality
  21. or logically speaking in order to comprehend what is right wrong, just unjust,
  22. ethical or unethical
  23. and philosophers who dive deeper into metaphysically subjective ideas would be
  24. plato
  25. minus
  26. and hum
  27. and now the difference between culturally subjective
  28. and metaphysically subjective ethics is that
  29. culturally subjective is an idea created with the ability to be open minded,
  30. while a metaphysically subjective follows rules based on what is rational
  31. or what is right or wrong based on books or beliefs
  32. So
  33. choosing culturally subjective as a much more
  34. reasonable um idea than metaphysically subjective.
  35. I chose philosopher Karl Marx, also known as the father of communism.
  36. Born on May five,
  37. in Rhine Province Prussia, which is now in Germany
  38. and holds the titles as a philosopher, philosopher social theorist and economist.
  39. And formed a Marxist ideology, which would be discussed in the following slides.
  40. Um he wrote the Communist Manifesto, which was published in 1848
  41. and it discusses um Marx and Friedrich
  42. um arguments that capitalism is a self-destruct idea that
  43. would be replaced with socialism and eventually um communism.
  44. he also Mark also wrote thesis on FBI
  45. um
  46. which is an argument that FBI
  47. had
  48. that rather than God creating humans, humans created the idea of God.
  49. And thirdly, he wrote
  50. S Capital, which was published in 1867.
  51. And this is where historically materialism takes place uh
  52. goes further as to explaining the idea that workers are being
  53. exploited by factory owners for um unpaid labor work for making it
  54. and making it more valuable valuable. And this is where um capitalism takes place.
  55. So what is Marxist ideology?
  56. So Marxist ideology is the struggle
  57. between social classes and its rankings explaining
  58. the effects that cap capitalism has
  59. with labor productivity and economic development.
  60. So if we look back into
  61. Um this capital that was published in 1867.
  62. Um he goes into talking about the exploitation of factory owners
  63. and the labor that he had that they had with um
  64. the workers.
  65. Um so an example would be um workers
  66. overworking themselves and still getting paid less or nothing
  67. and being the production of material but still being ranked low class,
  68. while factory workers get ranked high class and take
  69. credit and recognition for work not done by them.
  70. Meanwhile, workers get paid unfairly. So there is um
  71. a system and
  72. would be what would be capitalism where so
  73. there there is a social class and where um workers
  74. would be on the bottom of the social class status
  75. and owners would be on the bottom,
  76. but workers
  77. deserve to have some type of credibility for the amount of hours being done
  78. and producing this type of material
  79. while the owners were the ones getting acknowledgement for for
  80. a production that was not even done by them.
  81. So there is
  82. a quote that says,
  83. life is not determined by consciousness but consciousness by life.
  84. Um
  85. and this explains into that we do not gain consciousness by the ranking we hold,
  86. whether it is based on inheritance,
  87. um we gain consciousness by the productivity of
  88. material and experiences we create throughout our life.
  89. Um The moments opportunities and experiences that we
  90. take is what helps us build a consciousness.
  91. Um And then it's not based on material,
  92. which is money luxury frame because that does not determine
  93. our level of consciousness.
  94. Um Marx also claims that
  95. an individual's pensive state is dependent on the
  96. conditions in which they are surrounded by.
  97. So the communist manifesto
  98. Karl Marx in communism,
  99. Marx believed that we should all have the ability to
  100. create a society based on our needs and wants.
  101. He believed that we should not be holding back on the things we
  102. want to achieve just because we have a system told us not to,
  103. he wanted to create communism as a way to help each individual complete.
  104. and to see it in their own way.
  105. He did not believe in social status and wanted to get rid of the idea of Ray
  106. people based on their money and their fame,
  107. A community where labor advantage would not exist by their community,
  108. where lifting one another would help us individually gain
  109. consciousness built around experiences and opportunities we um take
  110. um
  111. This is this is culturally ethic objectives to allow like a
  112. community to be open minded and continue a life where ideas,
  113. opportunities aren't limited.
  114. Um I am nothing, but I must be everything would be um a
  115. good quote that I believe faced with um a
  116. Communist Communist with Karl Marx.
  117. So we have socialism and communism.
  118. So although communism was not properly applied and accepted,
  119. there was a separate economy system, which is socialism
  120. that has the closest ideas of communism,
  121. socialism and communism plays a value of creating an equal
  122. society and removing class privilege as I was talking before.
  123. Um in taking away um class um social class rankings,
  124. So what is so
  125. socialism?
  126. socialism advocates for the means of production, distribution
  127. and exchange
  128. that should be owned or regulated by the community as a home
  129. all citizens should share equally in economic resources.
  130. For example,
  131. we have Finland, Denmark
  132. and Norway. There are examples of socialisms or that follow socialism,
  133. ideas um they follow this economy system in order
  134. to maintain its equality with all its community.
  135. Um uh a
  136. fun fact um would be that these places are allowed to take a leave
  137. of absence in their workplace in order to pursue a career of their choice.
  138. Um This allows them to continue to work and take care of themselves.
  139. The studies they decide to pursue are paid by the government. Although,
  140. these um places do have a higher tax ring.
  141. It helps them have equal rights for anyone who decides to
  142. study or take absence of leave for maternal or paternal rights.
  143. So even if there's like a higher height, like tax rank in
  144. in their system,
  145. um it is not felt as heavily for them because let's
  146. say we take for instance someone who has been working.
  147. Um
  148. and decides to want to go back to school.
  149. So what the government does is it allows them to go back to school and
  150. pays for their tuition while
  151. having them maintain like a salary where it would be good
  152. to
  153. to uplift themselves.
  154. and we have, I put down a sheet of um what
  155. socialism is versus what communism is, although it's not
  156. the same
  157. ideas.
  158. It it does follow
  159. the idea of wanting to be equally
  160. um,
  161. as a community.
  162. So
  163. I wanna take, Who um
  164. I would go with a metaphysical uh
  165. metaphysically objective or to whom I will disagree
  166. and I chose philosopher David hume
  167. Um David Hume was born on April 26, 1711
  168. in Edinburgh,
  169. United Kingdom.
  170. He holds the titles of a philosopher, historian and economist,
  171. and he believes in sentiments are universal and we are born with them.
  172. A quote from him would be causes and effects are discover
  173. are discoverable, not by reason, but by experience,
  174. So,
  175. David hume believed that human morality is not
  176. about having moral ideas and beliefs and consciousness
  177. and morality is something you are trained at a young age and continue to layer it out
  178. in one self experiences.
  179. At a young age,
  180. you should be trained to what is right or wrong and apply this to future experiences,
  181. understanding right and wrong the reason alone.
  182. so
  183. what is meta
  184. ethics?
  185. Meta ethics addresses why something is right or wrong and is applied ethically?
  186. It focuses it it focuses on why we view certain things as wrong or right by judgment.
  187. Hume believes that our sense of moral judgment is part
  188. of humanity and is with us from the start,
  189. the sense of shared principle.
  190. Humanity leads him to believe that ethically humanity
  191. is what brings us together and connects us.
  192. We are not any different and are born with the same rationality of right and wrong.
  193. while the human heart is compounded of the same elements,
  194. it will never be wholly different, wholly different.
  195. So comparing um David hume with Karl Marx,
  196. this are culturally subjective ethic is this
  197. is the idea why culturally subjective ethic
  198. is reasonable than a matter of physical one due to the following components.
  199. So
  200. Karl Marx
  201. offers an econ economy system in where equality,
  202. rights will be given to all people in the community.
  203. So class does not exist.
  204. This mechanism will allow each individual to be open minded about the creations,
  205. ideas and systems and what they decide what is best for oneself.
  206. This system is built according to one self love and care.
  207. So as going back into the first slides
  208. is that Carl's mark's um
  209. idea was of having
  210. each individual will be open minded about things that they want to
  211. follow and not just follow certain rules and have certain categories.
  212. Um that will
  213. um only uh only make them
  214. compete with one with one another instead of like uplifting each other.
  215. Um and I disagree with David hume's ethic is that all humans
  216. are alike and gay morality and consciousness from the start of birth,
  217. I believe moral judgment differs from person to
  218. person because we individually experience time differently.
  219. For example, I could take myself and my sister, although we are in the same family,
  220. my experiences from her experiences are not the same,
  221. We experience maybe it could be because of age,
  222. because of things that we've been through,
  223. but it does not make make us the same person or have the same
  224. um, characteristics.
  225. Um
  226. And this is my idea of when culturally subjective, I think it's reasonably
  227. more good than a metaphysical one due to the due to these components.
