This post resonated with me a lot, thanks. I definitely think of myself as an awful person—I’ve done things that were more like murdering kittens than stealing food from the communal fridge. In some areas (e.g. on LW) I’m nice because I want people to admire me. In other areas (e.g. with women) I’m very nasty and don’t care about anyone except myself. Green penguins like me are a deadly menace to human society.
What could you tell someone as a reason not to be awful?
If they were awful to me or mine, I’d leave them. If they were awful to other people, I would ignore it.
