doing unto others
Acting toward people
Doing unto others is shorthand for the golden rule—treating people as you would want to be treated.
The phrase comes from biblical instruction to "do unto others as you would have them do unto you." It often appears in moral discussions or gentle reproach: Remember, we're doing unto others here.
