has been excellent this week. Thank you for your moral consistency.
No. I think the best argument against moral equivalency is that denying that one culture is better than another entails denying that the future state of one's own culture can be better than the present. It denies the possibility of progress, is hostile to it, and sides with evil.

Absolutely, he and Thomas Sowell are the two thinkers I found most profound and consistent.

If both groups are killing babies, then both groups are morally barbaric.
Both groups are killing babies,
Therefore both groups are morally barbaric.
What do you think of my modus ponens here?

This has nothing to do with culture or moral equivalency.
One side can be a million times eviler than the other and it still doesn't justify glassing hundreds of thousands of their children.
