This following post is to those who are timid, those who replies "glowie" while being told the bitter truth. It's such a bitter pill to swallow, isn't it?

I understand how you feel, because I was one of the fools that thought we could still rely on reason and debate. In fact, I am guilty of having directly argued with people calling for more aggressive tactics, saying that we need kindness to build a larger group of allies. Look what good it did.
However, I will ask that you don't judge us too harshly. We weren't ready to see it yet. Hell, I still don't think we're ready to do what is necessary, even for those of us that can see it now. Even if I want to do my part, it doesn't mean that I know exactly where to start.
We do need trust and kindness to build up allies, but they must be committed to giving up everything. The people who tend to act with "kindness" in mind, only do so out of the desire to avoid conflict and stay in safety. Conflict is inevitable, and everything must be approached with that in mind.
Quality over quantity. One ally who trusts you with every fibre of their being is worth more than 10000 people who will meekly follow you as long as you don't cause trouble.
We were the people that were willing to face conflict of words. While there are many cowards that couldn't even do that, now we're faced with the reality that words weren't enough. There are just too many that are just too weak willed.
Those who still refuse to see are merely justifying their inaction in the false hope of maintaining their comfortable lives.
Mercy should be second to Justice.
Do not tolerate Evil.
