    I’m a real softy, I generally want to help everyone, of course people often take advantage of it but i don’t really want to change, I think this is how I should be.

    it’s not to say I’m spineless I’ll definitely stand up for myself but being cruel just isn’t a tool in my repertoire.

    anyway thanks for coming to my soapbox.

      I’m only in favor of cruelty for show. If someone needs to die, kill them quickly and efficiently unless you plan to make an example of them. Punishment is pointless for the victim; they only learn to hate you. Punitive justice systems are mostly theatre to make us the satisfaction of cruel retribution while still seeing ourselves as civilized.
