So ... what are you guys saying? That your reasons for pointing out the wrongs of others are more justifiable than those of the users you're calling out?
Absolutely yes, and here's why.
The Multiple behaviors targeted by the Morality Police are all external to the TMF. They are trying to police what the rest of us can and can't do out in the world, whether it be tickling a stranger, noncon, tickling outside of the significant relationship, etc.
The SINGULAR behavior to which we object only happens here on the TMF. Namely, the morality policing. And all we do is object. Unlike the Morality Police, we don't assume authority we don't have. We simply raise objections, and shine a light on the injustice, and hope that the powers that be will see that there's a problem.
Does this mean you're the Morality Police Police?
Think of us more as a grass roots coalition for a peaceful coexistance. When a person or group introduces conflict, then yes, sometimes you have to confront that conflict with a counter conflict. If there is a gunman taking out innocent civilians at a shopping mall, is the legally armed citizen who puts six rounds into the perp a hypocrite for doing so?
Those of us who object to the Morality Police's tyranny aren't interested in squashing opinions, warnings, etc. If somebody asks if it's unethical to get a masseuse to tickle him, I wholeheartedly support sharing the opinion whether I agree with it or not. However, if he instead asks for advice on what's the best way to achieve this goal, then give him such advice if you have any.
But that's not what the Moral Police is doing. Allow me to present a sterling example of the pig-headed, self-righteous intolerance of the Morality Police at work:
there's a handful of individuals here who get butthurt every time someone reminds them that their opinions are firmly in the minority and that their actions are unwanted by the people they perpetrate them on.
Well hey, 'scuse the fuck out of me for having a "minority opinion!" If you don't want people getting "butthurt," then keep your moral nightstick in your pants and quit screwing us in the ass with it!
Can you believe the gall?
How dare these free thinkers express opinions outside the majority? Minority opinions are expressly forbidden! He doesn't know how many people that we tickle in this way, who they are, or where they live, yet he somehow knows that none of them want it. My God, what pompous and presumptuous arrogance.
To answer your question, though, yes it makes them a hypocrite, but they don't care, because if they understood logic in the first place, half these arguments would never happen.
Translation: "Yes they are hypocrites, but don't ask me to explain how, I just like calling them names."
And yes, "You can't, so don't" is perfectly valid advice when being asked about something that you shouldn't do.
Really? 'Cause that doesn't sound like advice to me. It sounds more like self-appointed authority being passed off as "advice." And by the way, who died and made you Pope? We can decide for ourselves what we should or shouldn't do.
And again, zip it up.
They're control freaks, which is why they both feel the need to impose their fetish on other people with or without their consent, and why they get so pissy over people telling them "no" on a messageboard.
And there you have it. Anybody rejecting the Morality Police's self-imagined authority is just a "control freak" being "pissy." This the kind of drooling Neanderthalic bullheadedness which precludes any notion of
Hey we're just giving our "opinions!"
