have these people never looked in a mirror

obviously not

like what was the first thing you learned when you were old enough to understand morality

just look at them

i'll let John cleese explain it

the golden rule, do to others what you want done to you

or however it goes

that rule sucks

why?

cuz you can justify anything

"If i were a nazi, i'd want someone to punch the nazi out of me, SO I MUST PUNCH NAZIS"

What

fortunately i'm not a nazi, so i can punch at will

No thats just lying to yourself

thats what i said

you can justify anything

if you have no principles

you can justify anything

God wills it

The greater good demands it

you can't change yourself justify what you do

"If I were as evil as them, I'd want them to kill me, but I'm a good person, so I won't go that far. I'll just punch them"

^

like imagining yourself as a nazi, now you're a new eprson

exactly, hence you know you're nto a nazi, cuz you'd be different

so since you're not, and the OTHERS are

you can punch them

cuz you're not evil

they are

you're a hero

cuz you fight evil

REEEEE

not only does "If I were as evil as them, I'd want them to kill me, but I'm a good person, so I won't go that far. I'll just punch them" leave you on the moral high ground, it even shows you're merciful

which means even higher moral ground

I can't be a nazi, my hat has no skulls on it

my god yearspastmatter, you're a hero

whatever, maybe that rule is dumb

not only do you fight against evil

but you show mercy too

but thats not the golden rule because you misunderstand it. You are adding an extra step, which is that people would be intellectually dishonest. But the rule isnt “ treat others the way you say you want to be treated” its how you would actually want to be treated. The fact that some ppl would lie about what they would do has no bearing on the fact that you should go about life with empathy
