Comment on If you feel like you're always being watched, can you really claim to have integrity?

  Does it matter if someone has integrity if they always do the right thing?

  Whether a person thinks they are being watched or nor is irrelevant. Either they are or they aren’t, and if they think they always are being watched, then it is safe to assume that person has integrity because they always act with integrity whether someone is actually watching them or not.

    But if you always feel like your being watched then you can never know what you would choose to do if you didn’t have that feeling.

      If you always feel like you are being watched then it doesnt matter what you would do if nobody was watching. Youre going to act the same as you always do, and if that is acting with integrity then that won’t change.

      Speak for yourself.

      This is why “know yourself” is in pretty much any philosophical/ethical/moral framework.

  That’s kind of arbitrary, isn’t it?

  To me, being a good person extends to doing good while hopping on one leg.

  That’s ridiculous, right? That’s obviously a definition of ‘good’ I’m creating, and choosing to impose on myself. Which is exactly what you’re doing.

  You’re assuming intent.
