Oh noes, not that. A total jackass who was a major contributor to the rise of the christofascists. Good riddance.
Am I the only person that thought this was talking about Rob Patterson and was srsly confused ๐ค๐
One less asshole to worry about.
One less asshole to worry about.
Too bad that it happened now.
Reveling on someone's death no matter how despicable isn't healthy in any way shape or form.
You can choose silence instead of spewing negativity.
You can also choose silence instead of spewing self-righteousness.
@stanleytweedle @rationalistfaith But you can't?
I chose not to spew self-righteousness.
@stanleytweedle How is judging somebody else for not celebrating death anything other than self righteousness?
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.
@stanleytweedle How is it self-righteous?
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.
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 ๐คท๐พโโ๏ธ
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.
I don't need to demonstrate it, you already did.
@stanleytweedle That's true, I guess "go google a word" counts as demonstration ๐
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?
lol- how is that related to this conversation?
@stanleytweedle It's a cognitive dissonance test. They're quite fun to do.
You're saying that telling people what to do in one case is self-righteous, and I'm wondering you think that applies in all cases.
Hating on the dead isn't the same as calling out people that do.
Right, their feelings about a dead hatemonger are none of your business so 'calling them out' is painfully self-righteous.
