Answers & Comments
1. There will always be instances where we'll feel like we are treated as an object by our family, loved ones or people around us. This can be when our feelings are being misunderstood and is not being taken into considderation or when our worth is not being appreciated and is not being given of importance.
This kind of situation will surely make us feel anxious and sometimes will make us think that we are not loved and alone. However, this would not be a valid reason for us to treat people the same way. We, as a children of God and as humans, should always observe respect and love one another. We should always do good to people no matter how bad they treat us sometimes. Showing goodness to people no matter how they treat us is really important. Treating each and every one of us in a nice way is the right thing to do. Just like what the bible says, we should love one another and by this, we can say that treating people as an object is not a good thing to do. Lastly, our treatment to other people should not depend on how they treat us.
2. It depends
it depends if I'm being treated as a "bad" subject or "good" subject
If it's a bad subject I would be annoyed so I wouldn't do it to others.. But if it's good then I'd be fine with and it and to other people
3. They regard other people as objects, they don't value the other persons feelings. They lack empathy. If someone you liked is treating you that way then it means they have no respect for you, which may be something you find it hard to accept, but you should accept it and leave this person.
4. What comes in my mind is like treating them as a means. Treating or using someone "merely as a means" means that the person is using another person simply to get what they want out of the situation. Basically, they're not doing the action for someone else, but using them for their own purposes.
5. We can make a better world if we prioritize intersubjective relationships over economic progress because the economy needs people and people need to have a good relationship with others. Therefore, we can communicate well with others and economic progress will continue to prosper.
