but there is no reason (feelings are not a reason) for why one should genuinely be moral

How have philosophers fooled people into believing that feelings don't matter, and aren't part of the equation?

Hard evidence isn't required to know something is real.

Can anybody concretely prove they love their family? Indirectly, but that's not direct proof.

Yet, nobody debates the existence of love, in it's many forms.

The philosophers who would remove emotion from the equation, are trying to manufacture a false paradigm to build upon.

They try to create artificial constraints that aren't based in reality.

They're philosophers of robots.

Feelings can be a cause, not a reason.

Imagine if Biden nuked Russia because he was in a bad mood.
