How Ethics Can Help You Make Better Decisions | Michael Schur | TED
What would Immanuel Kant say about a fender bender? In a surprisingly funny trip through the teachings of some of history’s great philosophers, TV writer and producer Michael Schur (from hit shows like “The Office” and “The Good Place”) talks through how to confront life’s moral dilemmas — and shows how understanding ethical theories can…

Most people don’t live by an ethical code and if you are ethical with those people, you are weighing yourself down. Do you think Bill Gates or Jeff Bezos have ethics? No! Ethics will slow you down!

It all boils down to one’s personal choices. Even if I get slower or fail, I would stick to my ethics. That is what integrity means. Money is not everything for those who have strong ethics. Forget about billionaires, don’t compare with them. They are not the best examples.

Thank you for this advice!!! I did check out the Bible about this town nearby that has been led astray, and you’re right; he laid out the morals and ethics for the situation. I am going shopping for weapons and fuel and fire starters right now!
“Suppose you hear in one of the towns the LORD your God is giving you that some worthless rabble among you have led their fellow citizens astray by encouraging them to worship foreign gods. In such cases, you must examine the facts carefully. If you find it is true and can prove that such a detestable act has occurred among you, you must attack that town and completely destroy all its inhabitants, as well as all the livestock. Then you must pile all the plunder in the middle of the street and burn it. Put the entire town to the torch as a burnt offering to the LORD your God. That town must remain a ruin forever; it may never be rebuilt. Keep none of the plunder that has been set apart for destruction. Then the LORD will turn from his fierce anger and be merciful to you. He will have compassion on you and make you a great nation, just as he solemnly promised your ancestors. “The LORD your God will be merciful only if you obey him and keep all the commands I am giving you today, doing what is pleasing to him.” (Deuteronomy 13:13-19 NLT)

LOL. Ethics are what I’ve run my entire existence by (40+ years). Unfortunately, as we can all plainly see, only corruption, narcissism, lying, cheating, stealing, strong-arming, violence, and “image” gets people anywhere! 🤣😂🤣
Just look at 1.6 and ‘rump 45 for the clues. Might is right. Crime pays. Violence is the answer. Grab ’em by the pu$$¥. 💪😎🤟 Those things are rewarded.
The other nonsense like honor, truth, valor, compassion, justice, sacrifice, and honesty are all WEAK and INEFFECTIVE. If you want to succeed, be like Besoz, ‘rump, Musk, Branson, Gates, Lukashenko, Putin, and all those other rich and powerful autocrats. 💪😎🤟

You only need to read the Bible to obtain ethics. It comes from intuitively knowing right from wrong through the power of knowing Jesus died for us and rose the third day to prove he was the son of God. Then he told the disciples when he went back to Heaven, he’d ask God to send a helper to help us through ethical and all problems and promised he would be with us at all times. This is the truth and the way and the life, and answer to all problems.

3:57 It’s not specifically _wrong_ to care about cars getting little dings or scratches, but it’s definitely not _right_ either. When I was a child, every little imperfection in everything seemed like a massive deal, they felt like whatever it was that had been marred was ruined. I eventually grew out of it. Now, every dent and cut and such in anything I have (including my body) is just another story. People put WWWWAAAYYY too much value on cars, obsessing over them and _freaking out_ if they get so much as a small scratch on the bumper (that’s literally what bumpers are for 😒). It’s likely because they’re so expensive, so people feel upset if they get even the tiniest imperfection (completely oblivious to the many other things rotting and rusting and clogging away under and inside the car 🙄). Unless a car is an expensive showpiece (in which case it shouldn’t even be on the street 😒), then NO, people should NOT whine and worry about minor cosmetic damage to cars.
6:48 Careful with the wording there. Utilitarianism prioritizes maximizes happiness and well-being and reducing pain and suffering _for all involved,_ otherwise you end up win a grey-goo situation where you could argue that you’re maximizing happiness _for one person_ at the expense of another, or that you’d minimize suffering by eliminating all life, and so on. It’s sort of like an evil-genie situation, you have to be careful and very specific with the wording to remove ambiguity and room to twist it.
7:23 I’m not seeing the problem. How is it a bad thing if everybody knows that they won’t be able to demand $800+ for a tiny scratch? Maybe they _should_ fear that happening to them, so they don’t take advantage of people. 😒
10:35 Or you can have a pro-athelete take the shot for you, just don’t whine when Don Meredith doesn’t even take off his jacket when doing so, it’s because it was cold in Montana while he was practicing and didn’t want to alter his throw.
I wonder how much of this incident contributed to him making _The Good Place._ 🤔

I always thought of impact of my actions on others. The only conclusion I got was, to not do nothing. But, if I don’t do anything, that too hurts some people and I became wrong. Only final conclusion I got was no matter what u do, other’s will be affected.

Whole story is so unrealistic to a german. Nobody would agree to think about not having the fender replaced. Our Mercedes has a tiny scratch from when presumably someone hit our precious car with a shopping cart in a parking lot. At least three people visiting us told us “You have a scratch there, you need to get that fixed”. There is just no space for morals if a car is involved. 😉

Is this Karma? Pondering about what put this thought in his mind. Was it him OR is there some other force in the universe? What is more important all those people after hurricane Katrina or his emotions and others who are trying to judge in some way. Religion has nothing to do with this comment.

In my youth I had in school “Religion & Morals” and I hated it because I was already raised Catholic why would I ever need this? Some years later they removed it and bullying started to raise in he school and with social media raising everything started to worsen. Now a similar non-mandatory class was instated called “Citizenship” and I think it is one of those thing we thing we don’t need until we see our youngs going through life without it.

The Utilitarians would be on the side of huirricane relief, depending upon the allocation of the funds in New Orleans. Concerning moral good, they are all about cold hard benefits and costs, not necessarily someone’s inflated attachment to a perfect looking car. There are a lot of details in this story that would have been needed for a correct conclusion, but the utilitarians stand AGAINST overweighing the emotional whims of your nearby human community. They stand for the equal value of all human life. They would, for instance, probably favor giving 100k to 1,000 Africans needing water, rather than give it to 1 American to go to college. This story is similar, but that 100k wouldn’t go as far with Red Cross Katrina relief .

promoting the creation and wellbeing of life, especially conscious life, should be always the goal
these 2 are probably all you need to settle any ethical dilema
i thought them up on my own on the spot
