Is calling someone judgemental judgemental?

You can not logically criticize someone for being judgemental, since that in effect is a judgement and generalisation of someone else's personality. This is a fail of logic on the most basic level.

It's like someone saying "You should not use English", well then you have failed your own objective, so why should I listen to you?

The only reason why people have a problem with judgement, is not from any genuine reasoned argument, but just that they don't like what you are saying, so they will try to shut you up by ... judging you negatively!

Personally I love my sense of judgement, it separates my friends from enemies very quickly.

Discuss.

It's a word used subjectively to describe someone who judges people in an overly critical way, or you could say a very harsh way, what is very harsh is subjective.

So if I think you're being overly critical and I tell you that you're being overly critical , that isn't a failure of logic, because I would be expressing what I believe to be my fair and honest opinion of you which from my subjective point of view would most likely not be overly critical and therefore not judgmental and therefore not hypocritical of me to point out.

On the other hand there could be certain circumstances where you're right and a person might say to you something along the lines of "You're so judgmental, you deserve to die for that you horrible scum" and they might even in their own perception be purposefully overly critical of you for being overly critical in that sense you could say they are hypocrites.

But in day to day use it's doubtful that the person is being hypocritical I think.


Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.

Impersonation is treason.
