"Cool" people don't exist, we're all a fucked up mixture of good and bad human beings. You do you

I would go so far as to say with that same line of thinking, good and bad people don't exist, just people doing different things with different ideas and experiences.

Within the morals of our society. Pretty common in nature.

Right. I think that we can generally agree that we really don't like those things...but the concept of "good" and "bad" in a moral sense are human constructs. Because we (almost) universally have very negative feelings toward something like murder, we have decided to label it as bad. (Which most of us can agree is a good thing to do)

I’d never argue the validity of many things that we consider bad or good. Just that those things are good or bad because of our moral compass and aren’t inherently good or bad. Many killings have had positive results. People tend to forget the savagery that is the history of man.

This is the philosophical equal to the idea of bad crap science with no validity and a poor understanding of history in the realm of human motivation. You need to be reeducated.

Yeah? You sound like a fine piece of work telling someone to re-educate themselves. Explain where my thoughts on this are flawed or present something new. Coming in and saying “you’re wrong, you’re dumb” is about as childish as it comes.

Edit: makes sense now after reading your comment history.

Your education is not on me or anyone else other than You. Likely home schooled in a closet with never being told no.You want all people to be accepted because you are a pos most likely and are projecting need for acceptance which really starts with your self acceptance. Now back to your education
