Why this dilemma matters
Moral dilemmas like this expose a gap between what feels principled and what feels workable. Choosing “Te stesso. L’obbedienza non cancella l’agire morale” prioritises consistency with one rule; choosing “Il sistema. Il potere ha plasmato la scelta” gives more weight to attention to specific consequences.
Worth asking yourself
- Which value should matter more here?
- Would you defend this choice to someone affected by it?
