ILN EP 150: Utilitarianism, Part III: Utilitarianism Forever

Published: Jan. 19, 2022, 3:32 a.m.

Pat was feeling contrarian so he personally asks Ben to finally outline the philosophical objections to Utilitarianism. These include, in order of hilarity, The Repugnant Conclusion, The Utility Monster, The Demandingness Objection, The Paradox of Hedonism, and The Replaceability Argument. Listen to find out what any of that means! Also, don't forget to join our Patreon, where for $5 a month, Pat teaches Ben something for a change, like how James Gandolfini should be cast in the MCU if he were alive today, and Black Amadeus! I'm not explaining either of these, so check out www.patreon.com/ILearnedNothing to learn more!
