Value, morality & social reality

"People that produce bad outcomes can thereby become the fitting targets of blame, the fitting intensity of which is determined by the badness of the outcomes. In the following paper, I suggest that the amount of blame instances that people are fitting targets of is also determined by the weight of the badness of the outcomes. I use the example of online blame as a paradigmatic case where the amount of blame instances are made targets of risks being excessive, even when each instance of blame is fittingly held and expressed.".
