Signification de "self-righteous" dans le dictionnaire anglais

La droiture est un sentiment ou une démonstration de supériorité morale découlant du sentiment que les croyances, les actions ou les affiliations d'une personne sont d'une plus grande vertu que celles de la personne moyenne. Les individus justifiant sont souvent intolérants aux opinions et aux comportements des autres. Le terme «drogué» est souvent considéré comme dérogatoire, en particulier parce que les individus qui se pratiquent en soi sont souvent considérés comme hypocrisiens en raison de la conviction que les humains sont imparfaits et ne peuvent donc jamais être infaillible, une idée similaire à celle du mécanisme freudien de défense de la réaction formation. Le lien entre l'autosuffisance et l'hypocrisie est antérieur aux vues de Freud, cependant, comme en témoigne le livre de 1899 Good Mrs. Hypocrite: A Study in Self-Righteousness, de l'auteur pseudonyme "Rita". Self-righteousness is a feeling or display of moral superiority derived from a sense that one's beliefs, actions, or affiliations are of greater virtue than those of the average person. Self-righteous individuals are often intolerant of the opinions and behaviors of others. The term "self-righteous" is often considered derogatory particularly because self-righteous individuals are often thought to exhibit hypocrisy due to the belief that humans are imperfect and can therefore never be infallible, an idea similar to that of the Freudian defense mechanism of reaction formation. The connection between self-righteousness and hypocrisy predates Freud's views, however, as evidenced by the 1899 book Good Mrs. Hypocrite: A Study in Self-Righteousness, by the pseudonymous author "Rita."...

Voting for our government to use guns to give money to help poor and suffering people is immoral, self-righteous, bullying laziness.
