that rule sucks

2019-01-24 16:21:53 UTC  

why?

2019-01-24 16:22:07 UTC  

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"

2019-01-24 16:22:17 UTC  

What

2019-01-24 16:22:18 UTC  

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

2019-01-24 16:22:24 UTC  

No thats just lying to yourself

2019-01-24 16:22:29 UTC  

thats what i said

2019-01-24 16:22:31 UTC  

you can justify anything

2019-01-24 16:22:43 UTC  

if you have no principles

2019-01-24 16:22:45 UTC  

you can justify anything

2019-01-24 16:22:51 UTC  

God wills it

2019-01-24 16:22:56 UTC  

The greater good demands it

2019-01-24 16:22:58 UTC  

you can't change yourself justify what you do

2019-01-24 16:23:01 UTC  

"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"

2019-01-24 16:23:06 UTC  

^

2019-01-24 16:23:07 UTC  

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

2019-01-24 16:23:27 UTC  

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

2019-01-24 16:23:31 UTC  

so since you're not, and the OTHERS are

2019-01-24 16:23:33 UTC  

you can punch them

2019-01-24 16:23:36 UTC  

cuz you're not evil

2019-01-24 16:23:37 UTC  

they are

2019-01-24 16:23:38 UTC  

you're a hero

2019-01-24 16:23:40 UTC  

cuz you fight evil

2019-01-24 16:23:41 UTC  

REEEEE

2019-01-24 16:24:00 UTC  

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

2019-01-24 16:24:09 UTC  

which means even higher moral ground

2019-01-24 16:24:11 UTC  

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

2019-01-24 16:24:14 UTC  

my god yearspastmatter, you're a hero

2019-01-24 16:24:21 UTC  

whatever, maybe that rule is dumb

2019-01-24 16:24:21 UTC  

not only do you fight against evil

2019-01-24 16:24:27 UTC  

but you show mercy too

2019-01-24 16:24:28 UTC  

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

2019-01-24 16:24:40 UTC  

Does tim ever do general streams, i.e. not ones directly related to a video he puts out

2019-01-24 16:24:53 UTC  

how is that different maddie?

2019-01-24 16:25:00 UTC  

@Dr.Wol that was 👌🏻

2019-01-24 16:25:09 UTC  

it's different because your interpretation puts you as a different person

2019-01-24 16:25:10 UTC  

"If i was a nazi, i'd want to be treated harshly"

But since i'm not, i get to punch nazi's cuz i'm not as evil as them!

2019-01-24 16:25:24 UTC  

the golden rule has nothing to do with evil and mercy

2019-01-24 16:25:32 UTC  

It'd certainly be nice to see Tim on Beauty and the Beta again sometime soon

2019-01-24 16:25:35 UTC  

don't know how likely that is

2019-01-24 16:25:39 UTC  

but thats lying, because if the person was an actual nazi they wouldnt believe that
