Judgemental idealists have caused more damage to the world in the name of compassion and love than any other class of people. May you continue to use your rhetoric proudly, so that it may continue to serve as a warning to others.
- Eisenstein 3y ago> Judgemental idealists have caused more damage to the world in the name of compassion and love than any other class of people. Are you counting eugenicists as 'judgmental idealists'? What about death penalty supporters/tough justice advocates? Zero-tolerance school administrators? Abstinence-only-sex-ed proclaimers? Think-of-the-children law pushers that get teens stuck on sex-offender lists? All-human-life-is-sacred religious groups that have made it so that our pets can die in peace, dignity, and without suffering but elderly humans have to suffer in agony for years and then get tortured to death by 'life saving efforts' at the very end? Those judgmental idealists? Certainly not the ones who simply say that disabled people should be able to access public spaces.
