It reminds me of virtue ethics. It says that you should imagine what a virtuous person would do in a situation and do that. It relies on the idea that "we all know what a virtuous person looks like".

Of course it runs into the problem that you can't improve your morality because your virtuous person is socially determined with no escape route to imagine a better society.
