that's the message from most organised religions these days (with the exception of one main religion, perhaps). Just fluffy messages about feelings and emotions and getting on with each other, but nothing fundamental about what is the Truth of this life and the hereafter. No wonder most people are lost.

It also means don't discriminate in any way and my feelings are all that matters.

Very, very accurate.

And the slogan of the woke antidemocratic dominion of Aoteoroa. I prefer to live in New Zealand, where the truth used to be, and God was worshipped.

But I am told to be kind, and accept this new country, and their new religion.

There is a bumper sticker I saw on a Volvo (the traditional car of American bien pensant types) that said: "Humankind: Be both." I interpreted this to mean, "I'm quite sure I am both human and kind. You, however, might need a little encouragement."

In my town there is a large home made sign that actually says: "be kind, or else..." I would have thought it was a joke pointing out the implicit unkind threat, except for other signals the place is home to militant MLB types.

It's a good demonstration for my children though, as we drive by, so I think of it as a win that they are so obvious in their lack of self-awareness. It had previously been hard for my children to say why they hated the little pink "be kind 💕" someone painted at all the intersections in our neighborhood.

@Lucinda - "be kind, or else..."

That's great to hear. Out of their own mouths...
