Ahem, I said - "if you think I have a double standard then fine." as in "fine, if you think I do have one then so be it - I'm not going to try and convince you otherwise if you think I do.". You're entitled to think whatever you like about me - it's not my job to chase after you and convince you that I'm up to your moral/ethical standard. That's all.
Oh, I knew what you meant, but I'm still not okay with tolerating intolerance
Its not about my opinion or view of you either. That has nothing to do with it, and I'm not sure why you always circle back to what other people think about you. This isn't about *you*, but what your attitudes and behaviors do to
others.
Oscar Wilde said that "Morality is simply the attitude we adopt towards people whom we personally dislike", and that quote makes a ton of sense in the context of this thread (and the others like it). Its EASY to be kind and fair and compassionate and non-judgemental with those that we like or that we readily identify with. Being able to be kind and fair and compassionate with those that we do NOT readily like or identify with is much harder, and I would argue, more important as far as being a moral human being.
Let me ask you Stephy, how would you feel if someone started a thread on here about how they saw a Kuvasz misbehaving on a street corner, and then continued on to say how stupid it is to own a LGD like a Kuvasz if you live in a city far from any livestock. How there is no point in something like that, and people who do are not providing their dogs with a good life?
Do you see any parallel with the above and how you tend to jump on people who have different preferences than you?
