Naturally, some sets of values work better with our goals than others.
But I'd rather focus on the goals, where I think we have some hope of
agreement.
The issue here is not "values" but "ethics". Can we

the two?
You are welcome to replace one for the other in my comment above if that
will help you along. Regardless, my point stands: we'll be more
effecting focusing on shared practical goals then achieving mental
conformity.
