maybe you could approach me with compassion and try to understand, instead of just riding in on a high horse to pass judgment
or don't, believe what you want. i know i'm right.
doing the right thing is often hard. i'm gonna keep punching nazis, but when i see trump voters having their lives ruined, i'm going to put hatred aside to try to create a better world. you may not agree with me, but i hope my comments moved at least a few people.

Empathy will get more converts while anger will further radicalize all of us
