Laziness is selfishness when your actions negatively affect other people. Selfishness is not a good person’s trait.

You don’t get to blame me for your reactions, only my (in)actions.
When no words accomplishes the task just as well, it’s not selfish to avoid small talk. The fact that you mind to rude or impolite is your problem, not mine.

how does absence of small talk negatively affect other people
TractorDuffy@lemmy.world 2 days ago
It might make them uncomfortable. If you don’t make polite small talk, they won’t know if you’re a safe person to be around. Did you not know that?

Whether someone makes polite small talk seems like a weird way of judging people’s trustworthiness, although, people will reveal stuff about themselves in conversations. But the things that reveal trustworthiness are more likely to be mentioned in serious conversation than in small talk.
