Reality is often a shithole, I agree. But we all gotta live in it. Utopian dreams are just that...dreams. Time to wake up.

    personally, i prefer to leave the world a better place than what i found it, and people better off for my presence in it

    YOU don't have to be an asshole. That's your decision.

    It's when you start making the decision for OTHERS that you become the asshole yourself. You don't get to police speech. If I want to call you Blinky the fucking ass-clown, I can. It's the moment where you step over the line and determine what other people are allowed to say that you become the asshole. Enough of you utopian dickheads trying to nice-wash the internet.
