If you think I’m defending the monarchy, think again. I’m defending compassion.
It's not brave or noble to police expressions of anger at oppressors it's just foolish. It won't make society better, civility is just a tool the powerful use to enforce the status quo.
He chooses to let someone starve over feeding them, this is fine a civil behavior. I call him a fucking cunt for doing that and wish death upon him and this is uncivil behaviour and I lack compassion? nonsense, it is compassion that fills me with rage.
