I conclude that you cannot apply consequentialism when the outcome is unknown, so the US has done something immoral and illegal, end of story.
> cannot apply consequentialism when the outcome is unknown
Can you not substitute the mean expected outcome where the factual outcome is not yet known?
Recklessness is immoral, and look how the discourse normalizes it so cleverly.
Idk man, if my country was ruled by a dictator who faked elections I would be very happy to see some outsiders removing him. Kidnapping (and hopefully jailing for a long time) anyone who is in power by cheating the election is a big moral win in my book.
