That's the whole point I was making.
And no, don't take this way out of context, it's just a radical example to make my point as clear as possible, it doesn't have to be that far-fetched in order to be open for interpretation, relative and subjective.


Fair enough. I respect that position. Trolls and online fascists ruin conversations, no question. But that shouldn't keep us from having conversations.

My reply was about morality, clearly neo-nazis have a very different moral compass as opposed to those who aren't, or they wouldn't be one in the first place. Therefore people who would agree or disagree with certain actions being super logically (to you and I) good or evil do exist.
Like the example I made of having to decide the fate of the reformed criminal that the commoners want punished, a lot of people would believe giving them that extra chance is the -good- thing, but you'd be surprised how many people would also see not giving them mercy is the -good- thing. This is why this is all very subjective and therefore I just don't like alignment being fixed and excluding you from certain decisions, I would rather all decisions and consequences being on the go and forming your character's reputation/alignment/whatever through individual actions.


This is basically where I stand myself too. And this is why I've always preferred the warhammer fantasy universe over D&D.
