      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 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.

                  If binary thinking is all you’re capable of I’d say you should err on the side of caution and just never tell anyone what to do. It’s more complex than that but clearly this is your limit.

                    @stanleytweedle It’s strange that you don’t even know your own opinion about what makes something self-righteous or not.

                    It’s clear you think telling someone not to celebrate death is self-righteous, and its your right to hold to that opinion. The weird part is not knowing why you think it’s self-righteous.

                    Of course, you do say you know why it’s self-righteous, but that’s pretty much the only explanation you know of, apparently 😂

                    Like, is it because it’s telling people what to do? You don’t know!
