I don't want to worry you OP, but this is not something that someone should have to explain to you. Not understanding why treating others badly is bad, is a sign for being either an autist or a psychopath. Most people want to be treated well, and like treating others well in return.
"Do unto others as you would have them do unto you" is you just basic information: If i hit someone, i'm more likely to get hit by them in return; if i treat someone well, i'm more likely to be treated well in return; etc.
>>
>>2951361
If you're going to justify it with selfish reasons why not use more selfish rule like "do what you can get away with" or something?
>>
>>2951296
So stupid people can adhere to a concept without fully understanding it.
>>
It's a poetic expression of the principle: "don't treat other people badly", so it's a lesser waste of time to just skip the crap and look directly at that statement.

Don't treat other people badly because people bear grudges and everybody grudging on everybody else is bad.

If everybody treats each other right, they can all band together against the minority that try to treat them badly, and the number of people being treated badly is minimised.

Thus, the probability that you will be treated badly is minimised, and so is the probability that those you care about will be.

I think it is a thought with a good intention, but some consequences of it aren´t good. For example if you want that others kill you, then you can kill others untill the police kills you.

Alternately, you can treat people well to increase your social links, not only will that allow you to gain people that will help you survive (give food when starving, shelter when in dire straits, protect you against threats by numbers, etc), but also increase the number of suitable mates that you can choose from.

there's an evolutionary imperative in not treating people like shit

Being nice to others feels nice.

Being nice to others encourages them to be nice to us.

Being nice to others presents us in a favorable light to potential partners.

Being nice to others cultivates our inner virtue.

Being nice to others is necessary to avoid being thrown into a fiery pit by your loving "father".

Take your pick. Also I prefer the Silver Rule:

Any selfish person truly looking to establish personal connections solely for their own benefit would be smart enough not to say that they "do what they can get away with doing." It comes off as overtly selfish and maybe even reckless, so even if you choose to ACT in such a way it would at least be more beneficial to lie and SAY that you "do unto others as you would have them do unto you" because it sounds more attractive and benevolent to the average person.

It still doesn't make much sense to stop at only doing "what you can get away with." In situations where you're not burdened by the act of helping others, I don't see why you wouldn't choose to do so. The reason is simply because goodness is good and better than no good at all when both can be possible outcomes with the same effort.

Not individually it doesn't, but that kind of thinking leads to the destruction of the system.

On an individual scale, reciprocity is the basis of most social interactions and exchanges. We help others so that they, in the future, will help us.

On a larger scale, your logic applies, but the fact of the matter is that if your thinking was universalized the system would collapse. So the question then becomes, will you pay into the system, or try and game the system.

Thus we have set punishments for those who would game the system, as additional incentive not to do so. Beyond even that however, it feeds my ego to not game the system. To be known as virtuous, and to know myself as righteous. It feeds my self-concept.

That alone provides additional incentive to pay in rather then to game it.

It does. Society is a web of reciprocal relationships and behavioral patterns, a system of nonaggression pacts and mutual benevolence of those within the group.

However it is technically possible to benefit from others benevolence while contributing none of your own, and to give nothing but take everything. And, barring punishments, there would be no recompense for choosing this path over the path of reciprocity.

However, if everyone took the former path society would crumble.

Reciprocity, and not altruism, is the core foundation of society, the principle upon which it is possible.

"Do unto others SO THAT they shall do unto you" is the whole of the Law.

because eventualy youll meet humans that genuinely live like that and can chew you up like a piece of gum and if you take the path of being a edgy asshole thats just what theyl do, with enjoyment, and you wont know what hit you, especialy since you wont have backup, since youre a edgy asshole and no one gives a fuck about you

I want a cute, late teens (age of consent) to early twenties trans gf who looks like girl in OP pic.

Does anybody know where I might find one?

I'm thinking maybe Iran?

The Islamic Republic of Iran is one of the most Red Pilled nations on the planet, no?

One of the very few countries left in the world (the others being North Korea, Cuba, Zimbabwe, Eritrea, Syria, Venezuela, Belarus, Bolivia) that has not been swallowed up by the Great Satan's (USA) global capitalist empire.

And apparently, the Islamic Republic of Iran not only legalized and publicly subsidizes transgender operation/hormone pills since the fatwa of Imam Khomeini in the 1980's, but is one of the biggest funders of trans health initiatives in the world.

If not though, a cute cis gf who looks like that is fine. Where would I find a non-trans gf like OP pic?

It's universially agreed that the Gospels are not eye-wittness accounts but a result of taking several other documents and selectively editing them to form a new document. There are also Gospels which did not make the cut into cannon such as Thomas. Interestingly enough Thomas consists exclusively of Jesus quotes and reads like a philosophical text. Some of them really break with tradition, Jesus teaches that heaven is a state of mind and is accessed without dying.

It's funny how the people who ended up on the wrong side of history always turn out to be the hotheads who didn't think of consequences.

Sherman:

“You people of the South don't know what you are doing. This country will be drenched in blood, and God only knows how it will end. It is all folly, madness, a crime against civilization! You people speak so lightly of war; you don't know what you're talking about. War is a terrible thing! You mistake, too, the people of the North. They are a peaceable people but an earnest people, and they will fight, too. They are not going to let this country be destroyed without a mighty effort to save it [...] You are rushing into war with one of the most powerful, ingeniously mechanical, and determined people on Earth - right at your doors. Only in your spirit and determination are you prepared for war. In all else you are totally unprepared, with a bad cause to start with."

“If [the Confederates] want eternal war, well and good; we accept the issue, and will dispossess them and put our friends in their place. I know thousands and millions of good people who at simple notice would come to North Alabama and accept the elegant houses and plantations there. If the people of Huntsville think different, let them persist in war three years longer, and then they will not be consulted. Three years ago by a little reflection and patience they could have had a hundred years of peace and prosperity, but they preferred war; very well. Last year they could have saved their slaves, but now it is too late. All the powers of earth cannot restore to them their slaves, any more than their dead grandfathers. Next year their lands will be taken, for in war we can take them, and rightfully, too, and in another year they may beg in vain for their lives. A people who will persevere in war beyond a certain limit ought to know the consequences. Many, many peoples with less pertinacity have been wiped out of national existence.”

From a religious standpoint it is a major component in all major religions that is commanded by God or gods or even ancestral spirits.

From an economic model it often creates a higher system value, which statistically benefits you. This applies in multiple models. Your action can count as an additional positive transaction to increases the flow, see Keynesian based model for large scale multiplier effects. Or if you follow Hayek then your perceived action created more value at a lower cost to the common resource base, so you saved the system money through a value efficient action.

From multiple governance models it is valued. Even from a corrupt warlord governance model it pays to be known as the "nice guy", in either case of public revolt or the Warlord needs a new person to his high council.

Over the years of studying systems I have found this to be a stabilizing beneficial rule in ALL cases. Which honestly is kind of creepy in that I am huge pessimist and such a diverse systems set should not have such a high R value for one static rule in so many cases. It just weird, but true.

because its a fucking nice thing to do

are you a woman ?

it's wrong to fuck your friend's sister because you degraded one of his close family members
so by association you degraded your friend

The Martyr made podcast has a really good section on weird religious rules like why a man has to take a woman as his wife


One of the posters above mentioned fucking someone's sister and getting their shit kicked in for it. Imagine now you're in a tribal setting with no higher power to mediate/resolve conflicts. Now imagine in such a situation that the lowest common denominator of your tribe decided to go rape a woman because he's fucking retarded.

Obviously there's no prison or court. If your woman gets raped you have to retaliate or else you signal to other powers that you aren't protective of your own kind. This is how power dynamics work in any anarchical system, but especially so in a tribal setting. So the the other tribe decides to get even and they kill the retard in your tribe for raping that woman.

Although they were seemingly justified in doing so, you also can't let one of your own freely get killed without again showing a failure to protect those within your group. So this escalates further and further until full on war happens and allies are being called in


Now imagine if you had a religion and they had a rule that said "women cannot go around without a family male or her husband." Suddenly Saudi's retarded laws make sense in the absence of government. Obviously this doesn't justify it happening in Saudi because obviously they're a fucking government but hopefully that makes sense


The martyr made podcast was originally using it to explain why one's word mattered so much in Arabian society back in the 1910/1920s. I believe the source is episode 3 of the Fear and Loathing in New Jerusalem podcast

But that's exactly what karma is. The word literally means action and refers the consequences that arise from any action. The karma of eating shit food is a stomache ache. The karma of treating someone badly is them treating you badly in response. I suggest you study the term before replying it's is about cosmic justice or some shit.

That's what an imbecile's pop-culture understanding of what karma is.

Karma is the accumulation of positive and negative actions that affect your reincarnation or escape from Samara after you die. By definition it has no immediate consequences to the living.

I will give you a quick rundown.
There was a fryar who was a clock maker. He also made weapons. He got a task to repair the clock on the tower in Syria. In the tower he met a slave who told him a story about the owner of the fortress, Celeby Hafiz.
In this story there was a turkish psycho sadist called Celeby Hafiz who brutally murdered everyone in a small Syrian town, except one person, the woman he fell in love to. He was so brutal when people heard that he is coming, they will run away as quickly as possible from the town. He brought her in the harem. Later he got tricked by her. She freed the slaves and the slaves were causing havoc. She tied Celeby on the tree and slaves took out his limbs away. That Syrian woman tortured Celeby with a burn stick thingy and when the Ceyeby's and his horsemen came, she rammed that burn stick to Celeby's face, deforming it completely.
Now he can only move his head up and down just hear the bong and feel the wind.

In context, if you brutally hurt someone, someone other will hurt you the same way, or even worse.

Not only in Buddhist theology, that's also how it's colloquially used in Buddhist-influenced cultures (Japan, China...)
The very common proverb "the karma of the father is visited upon his son" (親の因果が子に報う) is supposed to mean "please think of your children who will have to suffer the consequences of your actions". It's actually a secular proverb (and may have been influenced by the biblical equivalent, but note how they reinterpreted that)
>>
>>2951296

So how does this rule apply for masochists or people who would readily accept behaviour done to them that most people would not want done to their own person?
>>
>>2962777
More a matter of wanting at that point. Like 2 people want something for Christmas, but not the same thing so they give each other different things they would like.
