A lot of us don't get rationality involved, we don't gave reasons, don't have arguments, those cone later.
For a lot of us, it comes from a feeling deep in our gut, that sonething is just plain wrong and unnatural.
We then try to find a way to justify how the opinions noted from that feeling are correct.
But we don't really need to, the feeling we get is argument enough, it's something primal, coded deeply into us through generations of evolution, its a preservational instinct that's been put there in us for a good reason (because those who didn't possess these psychological traits ended up dying without leaving anything equal or greater of their genetic legacy behind).
Anything else is trying to find why that instinct is being triggered in us when we encounter the thing that we have strong opinions about.
Appeal to the gut, use evolution to bolster that argument, you don't like it, and there's most likely a damn good reason why that is.
Its a high IQ argument that is commonly mistaken for being low IQ (as most such intelligent things are), but, as the meme goes, it's "Simple as", you "just don't like it/em".
Yes, it is having a goal that sets the standard that ideas could be judged against (in terms of how well they contribute towards achieving that goal).
Without that standard of judgment, there be no way to make decisions at all, because you'd have no idea what you are aiming for, you cannot know how to tell the merits of one choice over another.
Facts can only inform which means is better for approaching which ends, they cannot tell you anything about what your ends should be.
Humans are driven by instincts, by psychological traits that push you towards one thing and away from another, the traits that produce preferences, desires and fears.
A pure rational intellectual who is omniscient would remain paralyzed from making any movements, if you told him to tell you what you wanted done, he could show you the best way to go about it, if you asked him to do it for you, he'd do it in the best possible way it could be done in, but without being given a goal, he has none, so he will not do anything, as he wastes away and dies of suffocation, or perhaps thirst or starvation, if his automatic bodily functions are still given to him.
when i see a nigger, my first thought is "ENEMY! KILL IT!" this feeling became stronger after i stopped eating chocolate. brainconditioning right there. "mmh brown thing tasty! NO brown things destroys you!
still rots your teeth and fattens you, but yes, i had a time when i would consume white chocolate only and there already was an effect on how i perceived niggers. so if you absolutely cannot live without sugarry fatty bullshit, at least mmake sure its not shitcoloured. but you are missing out! you wouldnt believe how much tastier fruits and veggies are now that my tastebudds have forgotten the sweetness overkill that is produced by chocolate. recently ate a bit of chocolate because refusing would have been rude... didnt taste like anything. BOOOORRRIINNNGNGNG! some brambleberries on the other hand? delicious!
