Ya know "treat people how you want to be treated" is a bitter sweet phrase for me.

I have always lived up to this, problem is people dont want to be treated the same way I like to be treated. Worse yet people treat me the way they want to be treated and it isnt at all how I want to be treated.

Damnit society!

@freemo In deutsch: "Was du nicht willst, das man dir tu, das füg auch keinem andern zu." Etwas klarer. Du möchtest nicht beschämt werden, also beschämen niemand anderen. Du möchtest nicht mißhandelt werden. Folglich mißhandeln niemanden.

@VoidDiver was andere beschämt, beschämt mich noch lange nicht.

@mundauf
Beschämbar bist du aber dennoch?
Schon die Suche nach dem wunden Punkt nicht anzutreten.

@mundauf
Den Drive von @freemo in jenem Tröt kennen wir eher bei: "Du hast Dich ja überhaupt nicht verändert in den Jahren …" — Ja, sonne Bemerkung kann Entsetzen auslösen.

@VoidDiver Sounds reasonable, I can dig it (presuming i understood you correctly, my german is limited).

@freemo That's why I prefer "treat people how they want to be treated". As a bonus this aligns really well with utilitarianism.

@timorl Generally a much better rule. But like all rules it must be applied with the awareness of the situation too. Sometimes it isnt always best to treat someone how they want to be treated, for their own good. But that can be a slippery slope too.
