If it does not feel like an objective truth to you, you are probably in need of therapy.
Straight to ad hominem. If I don’t share your reality tunnel, I must be broken? When people can’t justify their beliefs, they default to attacking the person instead of the idea.
If you consider this an ad hominem, you are definitely in need of therapy. This is not about calling you a bad person, but about you lacking the empathy to understand other people have the same right to live a free and happy life as you do. Because that's what the categorical imperative is about. Treat others the way you would expect them to treat you.
You couldn't have missed the point of the question more if you tried, and your response is textbook ad hominem.
You side-stepped the philosophical problem I posed and instead took that as proof that I don't believe in kindness. For the love of all that's good in the world, please do not engage in philosophical threads if this is the extent of your ability to do so.
