I have a PhD in moral philosophy and I have no idea what’s going on here.
Facebook comment sections on anything scientific are always entertaining!
Facts.
I am really trying to follow this, but I need more coffee I think. I am happy to be educated if it can be explained a little easier or some good reference material.
I definitely don’t get this comic, but I can give us a starting point on the first statement: “moral situations can be described using Kripke Models”-
Kripke Models are based on Modal Logic, which is a way of doing formal logic including definitions of “necessarily” and “possibly”. The link between Modal Logic and ethics is Deontic logic, where “necessarily” is taken to mean “obligatory” and “possibly” means “permitted”. Sheaves and Topos theory are pure mathematics stuff and “Globo Matho” doesn’t mean anything as far as I can tell.
Be sure to let us all know if you find out what this means!

Worst thing to happen to moral philosophy since Sam Harris decided to write a book about it.
Wow that’s a very specific reach of a meme

I would like to reply to ridicule with another ridicule: Women are immune to maths.
