Categorical imperative sounds like some commie shit t b h. Every philosophical ideology that puts the collective values above the individual values should be put to fire and swiftly forgotten.

Kant was literally autistic. One time he tried to hold his pee for as long as possible to see if he could get rid of the desire to pee.

>collective values above the individual values
You haven't read Kant. The categorical imperative affirms an individual moral agency that doesn't rely on the dogmas of collectivism. Even if you disagree with it, the framework of the imperative is a means towards a philosophy of self-governance, not submission to a cause.

The categorical imperative has nothing to do with collective values or individual values. It's metaphysical.

Nothing could be further from the truth. Utilitarianism, now THAT is commie ethics. The virgin utilitarian will harvest you for organs because muh greatest good for greatest number. Meanwhile the Chad Kantian will reject the notion because he recognizes how horrific it would be if you made that sort of behaviour into universal law.

Why must I give a fuck about my moral principles being applicable on a massive scale? What exactly dictates that morality should be ubiquitous? I don't believe in the equality among all men, I don't believe in the inherent worth of all men, so why should my morality reflect these values?

>> No.12706273

>Now in such a way a world of rational beings (mundus intelligibilis) is possible as a realm of ends, and specifically for all persons through their own legislation as members. Accordingly, every rational being must act as if it were through its maxims always a legislative member in a universal realm of ends. The formal principle of these maxims is: ‘Act as though your maxim should serve at the same time as a universal law (for all rational beings)’.

Kant literally said that after killing the Elector of Brandenburg with a headbutt tho, context matters here. They had been drinking but he knew what he did was wrong, so he made it a teaching moment. You gotta read more bro
