It’s not about nice.
Nice is butter, it oils the gears that run society. It also gums up the works and prevents truths from surfacing, problems from being identified & dealt with. Nice is a way of disarming people so you can manipulate them as all machiavellian personalities instinctively realize.
IOW nice is not a goal or a good. It is a grace note, sometimes a tool, that neither truth nor the common good should be sacrificed for.
Treat all as you would be treated with honor, forbearance, compassion but above all with honesty.
I agree, so that comment would be much better suited for Trump to read, than me.
If it appears I am losing my patience with some posters, it’s because their comments are primarily based on raw emotion, and their literal love of Trump. Not saying you, specifically, but but blind devotion to a flawed, elderly man is a danger we face.
