    It is not any one individual’s responsibility to fix any other particular individual, true.

    Rather, it is the community’s responsibility to care for the community. All of the community.

    If you start declaring some members of the community to be undeserving of care, then you are no better than the fascists.

      I agree with the statement, but add, without a proper support system, its impossible to do the inner work for yourself. We need external support, and we have to try for ourselves.

      The whole, lead a horse to water but you cant make them drink. Dont mean we shouldnt still help em get to the water.

    The absolute audacity to vilify people/put them on blast constantly (bonus points for single mothers and having worse raising outcomes than single dads e.g.) and then act all high and mightly and demanding they “pull themselves up by their boostraps”.
