our emotions direct our behaviour. the most adequate teleological account for their existence exists in our inability to perform benefit/detriment analysis of our situation with reason in the time that is required for us to act, however emotions are not irrational - they are a heuristic and there is likely to some extent consistent internal logic within their operation
1. what can bring upon benefit is also beneficial
2. what can bring upon detriment is also detrimental
4. violence is detriment caused by one subject upon another
if we consider that the threat of violence is still violence we can see that morality is itself simply a more subtle and cunning form of violence. if morality were more than a limiting agent upon an individual it could act as an abstracted friendship, morality perhaps only acts this way when you are the dominant value holder/most power-or-able
concepts of right and wrong are simply abstractions of this (moral)violence
the individual is free to desire and desire what it will
if the individual values others through its own will then altruism is truly possible
1. morality and values are interdependent between individuals
that is, if you do not value anything that can be affected by an other their attempts at violence are whispers in the woods, they may as well not exist, and the others may individually be more capable at affecting the possibility of your desires coming to fruition and so different instances of violence will be consequence for you depending on their source
