Seriously, kindness is overrated

[Darkeningstar]

First thing:
Kindness is necessarily subordinate to intelligence

Second thing:
Kindness is overly dependent on receptivity, i.e., it’s mainly perspective

I won’t give examples, but will provide them if requested

Third thing:
Consequently, the reason why kindness would seem to be valued is because of its “goody-goody” value or “ I think kindness is useful because I imagine it as an important virtue”

Don't be kind, be clever or fair or wise

being kind and helping out the bullied kids is a chad trait

Being kind is great, as long as it’s real and not some fake, forced act to save face.

I could deconstruct the practical meaning of kindness, but I don’t think it’s necessary

How can it be great if kindness is perspective? A stopgap at best

It takes 0 dollars to be kind ❤

Do you really think a little kindness, like offering a helping hand when someone’s down, means nothing just because it’s not permanent?

Sometimes it’s a good thing

excessive kindness, specially to complete strangers, is a massive, massive creep/scammer/asshole alert

i've always believed most kindness is forced

 

[Darkeningstar]

I’m a fucking r****d because it’s obviously perspective, not prospective

I can't help but not be overly kind

It probably won't help you but consider kindness as a subordinate of intelligence, kindness is based on direct actionability to something

If you can actuate something because you are intelligent it’s better to use intelligence or wisdom rather than kindness
