John Dewey critiques traditional morality for presuming a deficiency in human nature, arguing that it attempts to enforce behavior through restrictive rules and punishment. He believes this approach is fundamentally flawed, as it contradicts inherent human tendencies. Dewey's perspective challenges the effectiveness of moral systems that rely on coercion, suggesting that such battles are ultimately futile.
