There’s an arena where disputes about basic values—order versus freedom, hierarchy versus equality, etc—are fought out, and that is politics, not philosophy. If values naturally converged, politics would not be needed
I don’t mean that values converge. I mean that if you take a truth-seeking approach to some fixed set of values, it won’t matter whether you start out analysing them through the lens of utility/duty/virtue. In the limit you’ll come to the same conclusions.
