Kindness, empathy, and a willingness to engage with those who disagree with you are all critical aspects of ethical action. Good ethics recognizes that personal differences are okay and that we can still work together in pursuit of a better world, even if our proposed solutions are imperfect or do not fully satisfy all involved. It really is the good-faith effort at the center of ethical reflection, engagement, and action that counts.
