Motivism

Motivism – Passion and emotion determine morality. The youngest generation is the more moral, as they have not yet become too jaded to process justice and injustice on an emotional level.   Rabble rousers and activists can be found among the motivists, as can priests and philanthropists. The martyrs, the heroes fighting in the vanguard, and the flag-carrier standing in the rearguard are all motivists.   STRENGTHS – Motivists are dynamic, effecting changes and championing causes. They can be the most charitable, the most protective, and the most decisive of all. “Soft passion” such as kindness and caring are also exemplified by motivists.   WEAKNESSES – Can easily lead to violence at worst, and often in the best of times factionalism and confusion. Motivists are also often easily manipulated.   EXAMPLES – The owner of the orphanage that seeks to ensure the children experience a happy childhood, the terrorist that rips open a portal to the fire plane in the center of the city to send a message.
