    I think you should just stick to the idea that self-righteousness means ‘telling people what to do’. That seems to be as far as you can go with this. Do another ‘cognitive dissonance test’ on me- that was funny.

      I did the cognitive dissonance test but you failed already.

      “Self-righteousness is telling people what to do, that’s why I told that person what to do”

      “Is it wrong to tell people what to do if it’s murder tho?”

      “No, of course not!”

      The only way to get out of this logical quandary would be to claim that self-righteousness is bad, but that would have defeated your grounds for criticism in the first place.
