Yet you have not started a thread calling out Auburn fans. maybe you haven't noticed it because you choose to ignore it? A couple of posters from different fan bases have pointed it out, though, so maybe you should start a specific thread calling out Auburn posters?

quote:

So your position is you can’t criticize anyone for anything unless you’re morally superior to them?
That does fit the definition, does it not? I mean being morally superior to someone is actually a good thing, is it not? Don't you feel like you are morally superior to Hitler, for instance? Should we not all try to be morally superior?

quote:

So you saying I’m wrong right now means you think you’re morally superior to me? You see how that’s a never ending cycle?

I do see that....which is why maybe you shouldn't be calling people out if you do not want to be seen as morally superior. I however do want to be seen as morally superior, so I have no problem with it.

quote:

The part of your own definition that you’re missing is “justified by having higher moral values”
quote:

My position isn’t justified at all by my moral values. Me saying Georgia fans are wrong is not a statement on how good/bad their character is.


Isn't it, though? By the very thread you are saying we are wrong for feeling morally superior. Or are you saying it is okay to feel morally superior?


We can chase the rabbit all day long if you would like. I am retired and don't have a whole lot to do today since it is raining.

By the way. that wasn't "my" definition. It's in the dictionary.

I probably don’t notice because of biases. Which is why i didn’t say no to your first question and said maybe instead. I can’t point things out I don’t notice.

No it does not. You’re wildly misunderstanding the definition.

quote:

Actually being morally superior is a good thing yes. Thinking you’re morally superior to someone that your not? No not a good thing.

Using your own example, Hitler thought his race was morally superior to Jews which is what he used to justify the genocide. Would you say that’s wrong?

I only said it that way as in that’s the definition you pulled. You could pull many different definitions from different dictionaries. I wasn’t questioning the definition.
