If the public thinks something is good then how do you prove it's evil? How do you use utilitarianism to show suffering when people will just say it's not suffering or that the joy will outweigh suffering? Is it suffering when you punish a child? Is it suffering when black people don't feel pain the same way whites do? Is it suffering if you're bringing them civilization and salvation?
