One of the faults is that for every version of morality you can hallucinate a reason why cocktail is offensive or problematic.

Is it sexual? Is it alcohol? Is it violence? All of the above?

For example, good luck ever actually processing art content with that approach. Limiting everything to the lowest common denominator to avoid stepping on anyone's toes at all times is, paradoxically, a bane on everyone.

I believe we need to rethink how we deal with ethics and morality in these systems. Obviously, without a priori context every human, actually every living being, should be respected by default and the last thing I would advocate for is to let racism, sexism, etc. go unchecked...

But how can we strike a meaningful balance here?
