Comment on Be better
Shayeta@feddit.org 3 days agoTelling a person who doesn’t know better to just do better will at best do nothing and at worst exacerbate the problem.
Sure, telling people to do better makes me feel better about myself, but it does nothing beyond that.

I wouldn’t tell someone to just do better, but that’s because I have tact.
I have plenty of sympathy for the difficulties of self-improvement, but only for people who actually try. Life is about steeling oneself against harsh winds so that you may see the sun again. If you have forgotten all about the sun, I don’t know what to do with you. It’s sad, is what it is.
