You say one thing. You do another.
You speak of honour while breaking your word when it's inconvenient. You quote principles while optimising for extraction.
The system would work if you worked the system. Execute the protocol or stop quoting it.

I don’t like the #GoldenRule very much because of what I call the Pervert-Problem.
It's Sunday, so here's your Jesus-related content.

Just what happen to #GoldenRule and #commonsense ( I mean 1980’s common sense

One of the /facepalm moments you see in online communities is when a person or group attacks or insult a different culture or people, and when they fight back, they get offended and reports them (and calls the gang to mass report and exchange more words).
This is common in online games but also in the #SocialWeb. All you can do is 🤦🏽 or 🤷🏽 or both.
Moral lesson: If you think you're entitled to attack, bully, harass, or defame another person, people/Nation, culture, language, or country, then you shouldn't complain if they return the favor.
As the #GoldenRule goes:
> Treat others as one would like others to treat them
> Do not treat others in ways that one would not like to be treated
> What one wishes upon others, they wish upon themselves
Or, religious or philosophical:
> Ma'at: Do to the doer to make him do.
> Ma'at: That which you hate to be done to you, do not do to another.
> Thales: Avoid doing what you would blame others for doing.
> Isocrates: Do not do to others that which angers you when they do it to you.
> Leviticus (book): You shall not take vengeance or bear a grudge against your kinsfolk. Love your neighbor as yourself
> Matthew (book): In everything do to others as you would have them do to you
> Hinduism: If the entire Dharma can be said in a few words, then it is—that which is unfavorable to us, do not do that to others.
> Confucious: What you do not wish for yourself, do not do to others.
> Yoruba: One who is going to take a pointed stick to pinch a baby bird should first try it on himself to feel how it hurts.
Or, as we Filipinos say:
> Karma!

A quotation from Joseph Addison
Temperance and abstinence, faith and devotion, are in themselves perhaps as laudable as any other virtues; but those which make a man popular and beloved are justice, charity, munificence, and, in short, all the good qualities which render us beneficial to each other.
Joseph Addison (1672-1719) English essayist, poet, statesman
Essay (1711-12-08), The Spectator, No. 243

had not read the whole Caroline Kennedy letter rebuking her cousin as a sadist who got off on putting LIVE baby chickens on a blender to feed his pet birds of prey, which he kept in his drug den.
knew of Robert Kennedy Jr being a drug dealer but had never heard of the depths of his depravity.
#animalCruelty is a HUGE red-flag for domestic #abuse, #rape, mass #murder
indifference to suffering is a rejection of the #GoldenRule and all social contracts. it’s corruption that ends in #fascism.
A quotation from Judith Martin
Q. What is etiquette? And why is it so important?
A. It’s important because we can’t stand the way that other people treat us. Although we want the right to be able to behave in any way we want. Somehow a compromise is in order, if you want to live in communities. If you live on a mountaintop by yourself, it’s not necessary.
Judith Martin (b. 1938) American author, journalist, etiquette expert [a.k.a. Miss Manners]
Interview (2011-08), “Q and A with Miss Manners,” by Arcynta Ali Childs, Smithsonian magazine

Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.
[Πάντα οὖν ὅσα ἐὰν θέλητε ἵνα ποιῶσιν ὑμῖν οἱ ἄνθρωποι, οὕτως καὶ ὑμεῖς ποιεῖτε αὐτοῖς· οὗτος γάρ ἐστιν ὁ νόμος καὶ οἱ προφῆται.]

Never trust anything you find online that does not refer you to the actual source of the information so you can judge the reliability of the information by the reliability of it's source.
Protestors pose for a photo with their signs.
One sign says, "No Kings."
Another says, "Hands off PBS & NPR"
A sign says, "WWJD? Absolutely not this. Love thy neighbor..."
Another says, "Love thy Neighbor."

The remarkable thing is that we really love our neighbor as ourselves: we do unto others as we do unto ourselves. We hate others when we hate ourselves. We are tolerant toward others when we tolerate ourselves. We forgive others when we forgive ourselves. We are prone to sacrifice others when we are ready to sacrifice ourselves.
It is not love of self but hatred of self which is at the root of the troubles that afflict our world.
Eric Hoffer (1902-1983) American writer, philosopher, longshoreman

If we want mercy, we have to be merciful. If we want a bright future, we have to offer that to others.
The golden rule breaks down if someone teaches people they are special because of their skin color, place of birth, wealth, or religion. This makes them believe it is okay to treat those who are different as lesser humans and still think they are following the golden rule. #GoldenRule #Atheism
