Did you see the follow-on tweet which said what I am actually talking about?
-
yes. i'm not trying to disagree with you or say you were saying something different, just elaborating on the point...

I'm not sure what you were asking then when you said ' but is that moral?' Thought it was whether OK to care most abt loved ones.

i was asking in a philosophical/rhetorical way, not as a way to inspect your personal morals...

No, I got that. I'm not being defensive. I genuinely don't understand what you mean but you say we agree? Must sleep now anyway.
