The golden rule appears in many religions in different ways, but can be summed up as “treat others how you want to be treated”. However, I’ve seen it misused in some extreme ways in the past. What’s the most out-of-left-field way you’ve seen it used?

    What’s the most corrupt/misguided/peculiar way you’ve seen the golden rule used?

    golden rule (…) can be summed up as “treat others how you want to be treated”

    That must have been last Friday night when I saw a masochist severely beating a random guy on a street.
