Itβs funny, the other dick heads think itβs all about freedom speech, yet not realising it has nothing to do with that.
Itβs all about what they supposedly preached..
βLive and let liveβ
They never could practice what they preached!
I disagree. Being kind means treating everyone the same regardless if you disagree on their stance. Someone is racist? That's not what I agree with, but that doesn't mean I treat them poorly.
I understand the message you're trying to spread. But when someone adds the "anti" prefix before any of those things, one can usually conclude that said person is in the first stage of radicalization.
A better post would have "be not racist", "be not homophobic", etc., instead
Kindness is an action. I will be both + nice/polite. What Iβll no longer do is hold my tongue or actions from confrontation in order to make someone else comfortable
On a real note, i hate that sometimes its so hard or even scary to speak against bigotry. Being a minority in a society that seems to actively fight back against anybody different can get so discouraging at times, let's just let each other livee~
Is it okay for a homosexual woman to reject a transwoman because she only she's not interested in penises or "plastic vaginas" or is it okay for the transwoman to call that transphobia?
I know thatβs what itβs saying, but literally crossing out the word βkindβ is probably the worst messaging Iβve ever seen. As is the general trend to defining yourself in opposition.
No. *Be* Kind. Be accepting. Be an ally. Be a voice for those oppressed. Be an agent of change.
Liberalism is losing the war of ideas because it is struggling to offer a compelling, positive (in both the academic and moral senses) narrative of personal and communal fulfillment. The right and conservatism offer only fairy tales of heroic days past, but that is far more compelling than βantiβ
Why canβt I just have a social media feed with a little bit of everything? Here I see a bunch of shit like this. On Twitter itβs a bunch of racist alt-right shit. I just want something without a political leaning π
Well said! Inclusive people oppose bigotry to ensure respect, equality, and fairness for all, fostering a society where everyone feels valued and safe.
No need to be redundant, just be kind, it's a superset of all those things. Yo also have to be kind to unkind people (though at the same time don't let them walk over you)

Anti this anti that. It's all Anti Christ, & Abto Christ os Anti Love, & is kindness a part of the equation, if love is absent. How about you be Kind To yourself, as you are!

Also, block the bigots inevitably making an exodus to come here too. Itβs already begun because as much as they claim to hate us they canβt quit us. It must be such a miserable existence. Canβt relate. I wasnβt even on that other app/site to begin with.
A lot of people who hate feel emboldened by Trump's recent victory. Little do they know that a lot of us standing up for people against hate feel emboldened too. This will not be a quiet or easy four years for them!
Well, what every human being living in the 21st century does, I mean, I doubt homophobia and transphobia more. But I don't think anyone would be like that. Or at least any human who calls themselves "civilized."
Iβm not anti-anything. Iβm just pro-equality. Period. Anything else is a trap to make people hate a specific group and make up excuses to justify it. The only thing that really matters is βcontent of their characterβ, just like Dr. King said.
You'd be surprised how many clients will actively bring politics up and ask me my opinion. These same clients continue to come back for multiple months of coaching too. It's far from an ambush.
Why would you cross out "Be" in "Be Kind" though? To be, to exist, to bring into manifestation. "Be Kind" is a synonym for "Manifest Kindness" or "Exist kindly" is it not?
To be kind, it behooves us to strive to be against bigotry in all its forms, and when we fail, to improve. π

we don't afford tolerance to the intolerant.
It's fun to hate, especially when you surround yourself with people to mutually hate, and glaze, each other.
You donβt just erase it to support different causes.
Either you are kind and it applies to everyone, or you are not, in which case it isnβt true kindness, by a facade.
Maybe you can try to be nice in other ways.

KINDNESS is not COWARDICE either.

Be kind (Crossed Out)
Be Racist
In my defense your honor, I was half asleep.
Silence *is* agreement

There's no fear of homos or trans among straights.
Anti-racist, well that's wholly anti-white behavior, and is divisive. Just treat everyone as individuals.
Be racist, sexist and so on π€¦π»ββοΈπ€£

An illustration by Travis Alabanza of a diverse group of people holding up a giant sign that reads,
"Be Kind (kind is crossed out)
Anti-racist
Anti-sexist
Anti-homophobic
Anti-transphobic"
"Kindness without action is meaningless" is below the sign.
That's exactly why those people exist in the first place
"Don't mistake my kindness for weakness."

And above all
