I didn't get this impression at all.

Encouraging others with positivity to be kind is rarely a bad thing. Dismissing others that try to spread positivity is rarely a good thing.

don't you want to be in the world where people are kind?
or you rather be in a world where everyone is selfish?
Heard of categorical imperative?

>The result is dismissive of other humans that dont strive to be happy or a "good person". This has to be satire.
Nah yall just have a very limited view on this. Its no biggie though, humans tend to be narrow minded.
Holy cringe. Zero self awareness.

#18Love these. This quote stuck out to me:
> It follows, I think, that the luckier you’ve been, the more humility and generous spiritedness you need, and the unluckier you’ve been, the more compassion for yourself you need, and unfair as it may seem, the more you need irrepressible resolve.

Yes I heard of it. Considering we already live in a selfish world, while people preach to be kind just shows me how ignorant people are. Kindness is something the poor or the sick need. Coming from the poorer side of things I never received kindness. I've seen my mum struggle in life just to get me and my brother some new clothing. People are pretentious and while a small few geow richer and richer, we are out here coping with "be kind" instead of actually making things better. Kindness is an illusion.
