Yeah, I’m a weirdo. Treating others how I want to be treated would be a fucking problem. I don’t like unstructured time in my workday. Forced breaks are traditionally fifteen minutes of me anxiously spinning my wheels. The golden rule would stipulate that I try to make sure other people get as few breaks as possible because I sincerely usually prefer to stay in my task flow/mindset. The reality is that my coworkers appreciate the flexibility my work style affords them. I will be there taking care of shit whenever they need their unstructured time. They can count on me to provide them with the opposite of what I want.

I won’t respect you (as a human) unless you respect me (as an authority)!
I prefer the platinum rule. Do unto others as they would want to be done to them.

It doesn’t mean doing the exact same thing, it means treating others in the way you’d like to be treated.
The ethic of reciprocity is found in pretty much every society that has ever been known to exist.
As much as one or another religion might try to claim it as exclusively their own, it is really a basic pre-requisite for any sucessful society.
So if they like people being jerks to them, I can be - I mean they can be jerks to people?
So much this. This is the most basic thing and at least half of America doesn’t get it.
