And we could call it the Golden Rule.
Which, by the way , was originally dreamed of and created by folks who never heard or read a Bible.
Proving that morals don't come from the Bible and that you don't need a Bible to have morals in this world.

"Do not do to others that which angers you when they do it to you." " Isocrates[16] (436"338 BCE)

I wish they were just jokes.
They are wolves coming to attack the "sheep". And we have seen this type of behavior before.
"We enter the Reichstag to arm ourselves with the weapons of democracy. If democracy is foolish enough to give us free railway passes and salaries, that is its problem. It does not concern us. Any way of bringing about the revolution is fine by us."

"Do not believe that parliament is our goal. We have shown the enemy our nature from the podiums of our mass meetings and in the enormous demonstrations of our brown army. We will show it as well in the leaden atmosphere of parliament. We are coming neither as friends or neutrals. We come as enemies! As the wolf attacks the sheep, so come we. You are not among your friends any longer! You will not enjoy having us among you!"
-Joseph Goebbels
