I have often thought the golden rule was a nice saying like “God helps those who help themselves.”

But as I recently rediscovered the original source for the Golden Rule(not titled that though) is the Bible.

Mat 7:12 Therefore all things, whatever you desire that men should do to you, do even so to them; for this is the Law and the Prophets.

It is the second part that about it being a summary of the law and prophets that gives it a lot of authority. Quote being from Jesus doesn't hurt either.

Love your neighbor as yourself... but then came the question: what is a neighbor, and it was not a liberal, I can tell you that.

When libs talk about helping others, it’s only them they have in mind, it’s also bleeding heart “justice” devoid of respect of chivalry but full of neglect.

It’s like the chick who always explains that “he cheated on me and I went to jail for it”... playing the victim game make believe story.

Another good one is when a muslim tells you he loves America, as a pervert staring at a vagina, that is. There is no wish to care and preserve in these people’s mind, but humanistoid homosexualoid tendencies to forget all about honoring and caring for what has been built. It’s the great original confusion in Genesis that liberals and communists bank on every day in order to conceal the real meaning of their languages and strange assertiveness. They know what good thinks and manipulates it to make good believe they think alike...
