They argue that the existence of personites makes many of our moral beliefs and practices untenable\, so we must either give up those beliefs and practices or reject four-dimensionalism. I show that composition as identity can solve this problem: composition as identity can make four-dimensionalism and personites consistent with our moral beliefs and practices. Four-dimensionalism is saved and we have a novel reason to endorse composition as identity.

Using these terms outside their original context warps their meaning\, decreasing the intelligibility of the experiences of the marginalised agents who use them when attempting to express themselves both within their community and without. \nI intend to give an analysis of this phenomena\, with the expectation that understanding it better will provide a crucial step in combatting it. To this end I will argue it can best be understood as a specialised form of what Kristie Dotson calls ‘contributory injustice’ combined with a specific consequence of what Boyd and Marwick call ‘context collapse’. The result is a novel phenomena I label ‘Context-Collapsed Contributory Injustice’ or ‘CC.CI’. \nIn addition\, I will argue that CC.CI causes a novel from of what Miranda Fricker calls ‘hermeneutical injustice’\, which is demarcated by its ability to reintroduce conceptual lacunas by undermining existing hermeneutical resources. \n\n\nThroughout\, I will focus on the example case of the misappropriation of the concept ‘woke’ as it is used on black twitter (which is\, roughly\, the subsection of twitter users who are black and tweet with the intended audience of other black users).

Rather sportingly\, the liar leaves himself open to refutation by armchair methods such as calculation. My thesis is that Immanuel Kant precludes the existence of a priori lies. For asserting a proposition requires raising a rational expectation of its truth. If the hearer believes the negation of an a priori proposition\, Kant blames the deceived\, not the deceiver. We are sometimes permitted to believe beyond the evidence but never against the evidence. The impossibility of a priori lies vindicates the advocate’s assumption that one cannot lie with deliberately invalid deductions or by engaging in insincere legal semantics.

These roles\, however\, often entail knowingly bringing about serious\, unjust harms. I argue that agents in the justice system should ignore putative role obligations that conflict with justice.
