Obviously, I’m not gonna lose any sleep over a Tesla factory being burnt down, but isn’t this just adventurism? It’ll accomplish literally nothing but turn the popular opinion (even further) against communists and give the bourgeois state yet another excuse to crack down on leftist activity
the kantian view of morality is that an action is correct if everyone could do it and it would lead to a better world
so, stealing is wrong because if everyone stole shit would suck, but picking up trash is right because if everyone did it there would be no litter
if we extend that logic to lighting elon musk’s factories on fire,
Kinda feels like a loophole if you can just specify an exact scenario where it never affects the wrong people, idk but if I was making a system of morality it seems weird that people could escape arson being bad by saying “I only mean arson against bad people”, I’d probably have to revise that if I were Kant and this is how his morality works.
Edit: Didnt Kant have like an example where you have a duty to never lie for moral reasons even if the specific situation would outweigh the negativity of lying with the positive effect of the lie?
