True. I don't think there is anything "wrong" about wanting to be seen to be good, though. That goodness is attractive and that people like to be seen to be good is one of the great things about the world. Thank goodness for those fuzzies. We could be living in a much more evilicious environment.
Wrong as in not-truth-seeking. If we want to find good causes, this is the wrong evidence to use.
For me that would be quite a stretch. "Wrong" doesn't have "not-truth-seeking" as a meaning in any dictionary I am familiar with.
I didn't find that usage unnatural at all, considering that this website is about norms that can help people seek truth. The people that Kaj was talking about are violating the norms that we discuss here.
