i'll start: most "vote blue no matter who" liberals are actually good people (not including terminally online liberals as anyone who is terminally online is a bad person)

    Kipling's Just So Stories, problematic content aside, are some of the best and purest children's stories ever. Also the story behind them is incredibly sweet and sad

    If someone wants to complain about Nietzsche and why he sucks all day long they can, but they'd at least better read him first. You're not a better person if you choose to remain ignorant about something because of your preconceived notions about it. Whoever your intellectual hero is, they spent a lot of time reading stuff they didn't like or agree with, because that's the price of being able to speak authoritatively about a topic.

    And if you don't want to that's fine too, as long as you admit you don't know about it. There's tons of stuff I'll never read for a variety of reasons. But I'm not like actually I'm super cool because I decided not to to do the work of reading it.

      Nietzchie really is an amazing writer. Ayn Rand is meanwhile Nietzche, but somehow more of a psycho and one of the worst writers I have ever read.
