Why are fake compliments immoral/ worse than insults?

[ICXCLuvr]

I often hear people say “fake compliments are worse than insults”

But like why?

Is it really bad if the person who receives them ends up becoming happier?

Unless you are a deontologist and believe that lying is always inherently wrong (deontology is circular) then I don’t see why someone would be against it. @horseman. @Hess @ØUROBOROS

rules are rules because they are rules and things are bad because they just are always

Stupid position, only exists to oppose utilitarianism, the true philosophy

If the person you are talking with is someone who doesn't take criticism or advice well then just complementing them and moving is best if the person you are talking with is the opposite then keeping it real with them is better so it depends on the person you are talking with you get what I'm saying

My mom keeps saying I'm handsome and it pisses me the fuck off cuz I'm clearly not

If it’s to just make them feel better sure but most compliments are just lies to distract people from change

Fake compliments are bad

I agree, I’m the type of person to lie than tell a hard truth. I kinda see people who give hard truths as sadists using “being honest” as a disguise

Well no they're gonna say that there are certain types of actions that are always wrong when instantited either because of some set of properties or some primitive feature. Neither are going to explained circularly.

Threshold deontology is better

Studies actually show that people who use “brutal honesty” tend to score higher on dark triad personality traits. I cba to look for the study but literally 1 google search will confirm it
