@stanleytweedle How is judging somebody else for not celebrating death anything other than self righteousness?

[–] stanleytweedle@lemmy.ml 0 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I don't care if you celebrate or not. Reprimanding others for not sharing vacuous sentiments about death is the self-righteous part.

...and then you say: 'You're self-righteous for saying I'm self-righteous!'

> I don't care if you celebrate or not.

If you care so little about whether or not people celebrate death, why do you care so much when someone says to not celebrate death?

Because it's self-righteous, we've been over this.

Maybe google it if it's an unfamiliar term for you. Also check out 'moral superiority'.

@stanleytweedle If you don't know how it's self-righteous, don't say it's self-righteous.

[–] stanleytweedle@lemmy.ml 0 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I won't google the definition of words for you. But it's very self-righteous and morally superior if you ever get around to looking those up.

@stanleytweedle Your inability to defend your position speaks for itself 🤷🏾‍♂️

[–] stanleytweedle@lemmy.ml 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The fact that you think it requires any 'defense' is kind of funny.

@stanleytweedle Fair point. Why would anyone want to back up claims they make? Just saying things and refusing to demonstrate how or why you're right is normal. Proof that you're right, even.

[–] stanleytweedle@lemmy.ml 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I don't need to demonstrate it, you already did.

[–] realcaseyrollins@social.freetalklive.com 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

@stanleytweedle That's true, I guess "go google a word" counts as demonstration 😂

[–] stanleytweedle@lemmy.ml 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The demonstration of self-righteousness was preaching to strangers about how they should feel about a dead person. If you genuinely don't understand how that is self-righteous, well... that makes this even more fun somehow.

@stanleytweedle Is it self-righteous to also preach to strangers that killing people is wrong?

[–] stanleytweedle@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

lol- how is that related to this conversation?
