“Such frameworks reduce moral discourse to "the tracking of moral culpability, ," and are then baffled by pathological situations that cannot be reduced to the deliberate willing of free moral agents. As McFadyen shows, when you begin to analyze any given set of evils/pathologies, it soon becomes clear that many factors beyond conscious decision-making by bad actors are usually involved: economic, social, and institutional forces that apply massive pressure on individual willing; biological predispositions and physiological habituations; the shaping effects of the cultures and environments in which we are raised as children; and so on.” - Simeon Zahl, page 160
