I don’t think even that’s a sufficient definition.
It’s that all observers (except psychos), no matter their own particular circumstances and characteristics, would assign approval/disapproval in exactly the same way.
Psychopaths are quite capable of perceiving objective truths. In fact if there was an objective morality I expect it would work better for psychopaths than for anyone else.
I believe Rolf has excommunicated psychopaths (and Clippy) from the set of agents from whom “human morality” is calculated.
First they purged the psychopaths...
Me, I don’t think everyone else converges to the same conclusions. All non psychopaths just aren’t all made out of the same moral cookie cutter. It’s not that we have to “figure out” what is right, it’s that we have different values. If casual observation doesn’t convince you of this, Haidt’s quantified approach should.
