Liberals have a problem - they don’t know how to talk about morality. They don’t have one stairway that leads to truth, to lady justice; they have many. The liberal doesn’t care about the process of moral judgment. Their only concern is whether or not one of two outcomes are achieved: equity and/or tolerance.
Morality involves the application and interpretation of systems of moral principles through the application of reason. That’s where objective morality comes from - a universal standard applied equally and systematically to all moral agents.
Those on the left want to reduce morality to the totalitarian adherence to two ideals: tolerance and equity.The ultimate moral aim of the liberal is to show tolerance to EVERYONE and to ENFORCE equality of outcomes, meaning that everyone should be as equal as possible.
They believe that everyone should be tolerated and instances of intolerance and inequality automatically produce a moral imperative that moral agents must address and resolve.
To the liberal, fairness is equity. There are rarely conditions for equity. Liberals believe in “cheap grace,” grace that is unconditional.
