Nice salad but.
The are both fluid because they are both connected.

My empathy at one time would've been lauded by society for putting my son through electric shock therapy to get rid of the gay.

though historically speaking wishing a stranger dead..id like to think has been a no no more often than a yes yes.





Electroshock therapy absolutely terrifies me.

It rips my soul apart to think people actually subjected others to thing.

Just makes me so sad. :sad:

Yeah, I mean I can't imagine it, but I guess if your every day circumstances are bad enough and it can offer relief, I can understand it. I'm not even sure what it's used to tread.

Unfortunately for the vast majority of cases electro shock therapy was not a procedure a patient would elect for themselves rather than being something many many people had forced upon them. But I suppose once under the bell jar a person would be welcoming of any respite. When done properly it’s supposed to be a relatively “harmless” procedure, but many times the procedure was not done properly leaving the patients mind a placid pond void of any winds to stir it. I would say don’t get me started on the horrors of histories treatment of those suffering from mental health issues, but it appears I’ve already started.

So you're basically saying that empathy is of higher moral value than morality? lol

Yes "morality" can be used/weaponized as a societal tool but to me that is not the definition of morals. Or not my definition anyway.

To me having good morals is basically for all intents and purposes being or striving to be a good person. That's it. Being a good and decent human being. I know that's general and vague and many people may have a differing definition of what a good and decent human being is, but I think most I would hope understand the gist of what that would be.

Simplifying morality down to being nothing more than "laws by society to control" or whatever...nah.

:justno:

Morality means I don't have to feel bad for someone to do something good. Empathy would mean that my compassion relies on my willingness to accept their position. Kind of like how she was LOL'ing at someone getting gunned down just because she disagrees with their values. It's a soft tribalism, while maintaining the position that you're "humanitarian" or whatever the hell you'd want to identify as..

For sure.

If system A is a system of ever-changing societal rules about what it means to be a good person and system B is a system that requires me to "look within" and then allows me to laugh at someone being killed, then I'd rather adopt system A.

Idk what everyone in this thread is such a grumpy glum about this lol, it just seems to be a matter of differing definitions. :shrug:

Like I said, empathy is something very sacred and important to me. To me, empathy is a force within a person that drives them to show compassion to all living things and do what they can within their own actions to make the lives of those around them more pleasant if possible. Empathy comes from known pain a person has felt and a want to shield others from knowing the same pain.

To someone else, empathy may just been seen to them as morality in action.

That’s fine, no ones wrong by their definition. Seems a still thing to argue to such a fine tip.

As long as you’re kind to others.

You clearly exemplified why empathy is less fool proof than having principles with that one post, making your explanation contradictory. I just explained this. You're so compassionate. Much wow. So amaze

I'm not being a grumpy glum, sara, I'm just pointing out that it's pretty ironic to be lecturing people about morality and empathy in the same thread where you literally mocked someone who was shot to death.

I wouldn't say that such fine-detailed debates over semantics are worthless, though. If we don't understand what definitions we're using, we can't understand each other over the forums, which means we won't be able to have a meaningful discussion. Definitions matter, especially when you're talking about abstract concepts like morality.

Laughing about the death of another human being by gunfire is not a very good example of kindness towards others. I rest my case.

Of course it’s not, all death is sad. Even if a person may be flawed all people are only a product of their own journey. :shrug:
