[edit] Is this really suitable for wikipedia?

In my eyes, it's more of a wiktionary article. 217.60.43.5 06:28, 7 October 2005 (UTC)

It is suitable, but could be developed into discussion of philosophical cruelty, re: Nietzsche, Artaud, etc.

Needs a proper definition. I believe that most people use the word cruel to imply the infliction of purposeful suffering. Being indiffrent to what someone else believes to be cruel to too subjective. Even though it is a subjective idea.86.41.103.12 (talk) 18:45, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] cruel
