That’s the attitude we want around here!
Honestly, the end justifying all means is an attitude I’d expect from lemmygrad, not from here. I know, that’s not how you put it, but think about it that way
“The ends justify the means” is an argument often used by people that know the thing that they’re doing is pretty awful, and are trying to come up with some kind of hand waving justification.
But as a thought process it isn’t bad in and of itself. Every time you undergo surgery it’s because the ends justify the means.
It could be more favorably expressed as “short-term pain, long-term gain”.
Inaction is being complicit especially when it comes to fighting oppression.
And power structures reproduce themselves. Unity of means and ends is crucial when you don’t want to just build a new oppressive system
