(According to Merriam-Webster it has a more generic meaning also: characterized by or expressive of a concern with morality.) But with either meaning, I agree it's correct usage---I just misunderstood it at first. | |
| Jan 30, 2016 at 23:24 | comment | added | user18072 | @Kimball fair, but I think the word is right: moralistic = judgmental on the basis of a narrow moral view. Two different "moralistic" people may have very different morals. | |
| Jan 30, 2016 at 20:57 | comment | added | Kimball | I gave you a +1 for emphasizing the positives of poker, but a minor quibble on the wording tremendously moralistic. I think I'm a reasonably moral person and I don't view poker as inherently immoral. | |
