idk it just really seems like people latch onto ideas like "any guilt is religious in nature and i should never feel it" because being uncomfortable sucks but you can't just say that. you can't just say "i don't care about the consequences of my actions" bc people think you're an asshole, and you're a piece of shit but you still have FEELINGS!! so you want people to think you're a good person, of course. while it would probably be more effective in the long term to just be nicer to people, it's so much easier to string together a couple of five dollar words that amount to "anyone who criticizes my actions is the REAL asshole" and leave it at that. and no one wants to be an asshole, right?
