About the chart on "moral reasoning", consequentialism, the idea that only the outcome is what matters, is an ethical system that one can base their morals off of. I'm not sure where they got the idea that they're two separate things.

Also the whole "xyism" thing seems to be their own made-up terminology for the idea of an illusory correlation in social psychology. Why not just say stereotyping groups is a bad idea instead of the weird references to logic and set theory?
