REASONABLE IS PRETTY MUCH THE SAME THING AS LOGICAL
THEYRE SYNONYMS
THE EASIEST WAY TO BE FAIR IS TO SIMPLY BE LOGICAL
SINCE LOGIC IS IMPARTIAL
I CANT THINK OF A WAY TO BE ILLOGICAL AND FAIR
TO BE HONEST
NOT THAT IT MATTERS

AND IM NOT TALKING ABOUT FEELINGS THEMSELVES
THIS DISCUSSION ISNT ABOUT FEELINGS
ITS ABOUT HOW YOU CLAIMED THAT IT WAS IRRATIONAL
TO NOT CARE ABOUT PEOPLES FEELINGS
LOGIC MOST CERTAINLY HAS A PLACE IN THIS
ARGUMENT
UNLESS YOURE SAYING THAT YOUR STANCE
IS ILLOGICAL

WHICH I WOULDNT DISAGREE WITH
IF THAT WERE THE CASE

Because it isn't reasonable for you to be mean to someone? Unless you have a reasonable reason, of course. "You don't know them" isn't a reasonable reason, considering that they did nothing to deserve that, it wouldn't be a rational thing for you to do. Of course, for this argument to hold, I would have to assume that not caring about someone's feelings = being mean to them. Which is where part of the massive generalization comes from. The other part of the generalization assumes that they did nothing to deserve it.
I DONT CARE ABOUT THEIR FEELINGS
AND HAVE NO REASON TO CARE ABOUT THEIR FEELINGS
IS A REASONABLE REASON

I DONT CARE IF I STEP ON AN ANT WHILE WALKING
SOMEWHERE
SO THAT IS A REASONABLE REASON
TO NOT MAKE SURE I DONT STEP DOWN
ON AN ANT AS IM WALKING

YOURE ASSUMING ME NOT CARING
=ACTIVELY GOING OUT TO CRUSH ANTS
WHEN IN REALITY
IM JUST GOING ABOUT BY BUSINESS
AND IF AN ANT HAPPENS TO BE IN MY WAY
I STEP ON IT

LIKE
IF I SEE SOMEONE DOING SOMETHING STUPID
ILL SAY THAT IS SOME STUPID SHIT
OR SOMETHING
AND IF THAT PERSONS FEELINGS GET HURT
THEN OH WELL

I DONT ACTIVELY WALK AROUND
LOOKING FOR PEOPLE TO MAKE FUN
OF THOUGH
SINCE YEAH
I HAVE NO REASON TO DO SOMETHING
LIKE THAT

IM STILL NOT GIVING A SHIT ABOUT PEOPLES FEELINGS
AND YOU STILL SAID THAT IM IRRATIONAL FOR THAT
REASON
YOU ARE WRONG


Quote:
Yeah, I understand what you mean. But, for a truly rational person, it's more like "I don't care as much for strangers' feelings than I do for my own comrades. I 'explained' that if you're reasonable you're aren't going to want to be mean for no reason, because that's just how reasonable people are; whatever they're motive (unless the motive is truly devious or some shit).

YOUVE PRESENTED NO ARGUMENT
SHOWING THAT TRULY REASONABLE PEOPLE
CARE ABOUT STRANGERS FEELINGS
AND THAT A PERSON WHO DOESNT CARE ABOUT
THOSE PEOPLES FEELINGS
IS UNREASONABLE

AGAIN
JUST SAYING THATS HOW REASONABLE PEOPLE ARE
ISNT A GOOD ARGUMENT
WHEN YOURE SUPPOSE TO BE
SHOWING WHY
ITS REASONABLE TO DO THAT
AND UNREASONABLE NOT TO

GIVE ME A REASON WHY I SHOULD
GIVE A FUCK ABOUT STRANGERS FEELINGS


PRETTY MUCH JUST CALLED YOU ON
THIS SHIT BECAUSE I WANTED TO MAKE SOME
MASSIVE AS FUCK POSTS
IN LITTLE SPOON
POETIC ALL CAPS
