Transcript by OP

[fscom]

When I find out celebrities whose work I respect did things I personally judge as wrong, but not beyond my arbitrary “too much harm” limit, I get stuck in a moral limbo. I’ve accepted that, but wouldn’t want other people to know about it.

I look at both the unabashed fans and the disgusted people (not only callout-happy SJWs) and think:
“I see what you mean. I still kinda like them. But let’s not forget that was bad. And I honestly wish they’d apologise/do more self-flagellating. Yet, I am cold enough to not have it in me to have a gut reaction against them. Cheers.”

I kinda feel like that about Wendi Pini. She used to be a very skilled artist, but she has been repeatedly accused of plagiarism. And, unfortunately, total lack of skill in computer art, with which I agree.

[(Anonymous)]

tl;dr translation, please?

"I don't want people to know that I'm not forever offended when somebody does something that I don't think is too bad."

Thanks!

Your moral limbo being that people are imperfect humans? News at 11.

Here's the thing - there is nobody that does all good things or all bad things. Looking at somebody's collective body of things and determining where they, as a whole, fall on your bad person/good person scale is kind of what knowing and liking people is all about. And anybody who says "how dare you like so-and-so this person with a laundry list of good qualities, because one time they said x, which impies y!" is being unrealistic and ridiculous.

But then, I also cringe when it comes to this idea of never forgetting but apparently also never forgiving or moving past something unless someone has publicly beaten themselves to a sufficiently bloody pulp over the popular transgression of the day.

[elaminator]

I feel like this is a true statement and agree. The best people make mistakes too, it's just a matter of deciding if those mistakes are so awful that you can't forgive them. (And I do think it's alright for a person to look at something someone has said or done and say, "Okay, they're on my naughty list", but not everyone is always going to feel that way.)

[solticisekf]

This's such an ENFP thing to say.

You INTJ, you!

[solticisekf]

I'm the 17th type.)

That free internet test said I was an INTJ, but only narrowly J over P. *shrugs*

Re: OP

[solticisekf]

That's a great type. :D
Tests can give different results depending on the test, so people usually see what type fits them better based on its description or just choose on every individual letter, I/E, etc. MBTI is fun when applied to fictional characters, that's what I use it for.

[(Anonymous)]

Personally, I think it's okay to have grey areas in your morality, where something is simultaneously not cool and forgivable. I don't think you have to come down hard on one side or the other -- ambivalence/waffling is okay.

If this isn't what you were saying with your secret, I apologize.
