Comment on Was Elvis Presley a pedo?
Cryophilia@lemmy.world 9 months agoFun fact: there’s no such thing as objective morality. Back in the 1920s people thought it was objectively terrible for Black people to have equal rights.

I can both agree with your statement AND assert with evidence that something is objectively bad. 🤣

It wasn’t seen as harmful back then.

No, but it was harmful.
I’m talking about the objective harm of encouraging underage girls to avoid study and live their lives in the service of older men. There is nothing good that can be said about such a thing. It’s basically indentured servitude.

Ok, it wasn’t seen as relatively more harmful than anything else that would cause strain in a young person’s social, educational, and professional growth. Like an overinterest in sports or gambling or books.
