In the measure to which a man cuts off and humbles his own will, he proceeds toward success. But insofar as he stubbornly guards his own will, so much does he brings harm to himself.
-St Ephraim the Syrian
The Bible is a collection of historical documents showing Jews making mistakes time and time again, the worst of which was denying Christ, and pleading with the Romans to crucify him.
Hate speech doesn't exist, people can be hateful with their speech absolutely, but that is still free speech. If you say "Oh I'm pro free speech but we gotta stop hate speech" you aren't pro free speech, you are pro limiting speech. People often say "that's a slippery slope" but they are wrong, it's not a slope at all, it's a drop off into free fall.
Guilt is an emotion for a reason yet people try to normalize everything so that no one ever has to feel any guilty about anything and no one ever has to feel any sort of discomfort about their actions. If you feel uncomfortable or guilty for your actions it's very likely you should because you are doing or did something wrong.
Please use your own brain to form your own opinions, there is nothing worse than a person who just parrots other people's opinions on loop without any understanding of what they are even saying. I think most people respect others more even if they 1000% disagree with them so long as they actually understand what they are talking about.
