@ people deploring the lack of “civility” and “politeness” from the left after the election
I think I remember reading in an ask.fm response by @hbomberguy something along the lines of, “your goal in life shouldn’t be not to be a dick, but to be a dick to the right people”, and I feel like that’s generally a good mentality. Like, if you really want to stand up for what’s right in the world, you’ve got to abandon any commitments you might have to being a “nice” person universally, given how useless of a response that is to displays of abject evil.
