I see signs everywhere, stickers, t-shirts, YouTubers saying at the end of their videos "be kind" "kindness is everything". Kindness is overrated. What they mean when they say this is don't be confrontational, don't be assertive, succumb. It encourages weakness. Strength should be the priority.

Hah. People might not know this, but "Be kind" is Ardern's official destroy-the-economy-with-lockdowns-but-pretend-we-are-nice-people slogan in NZ (along with the equally nausea-inducing "team of 5 million"). While she still has plenty of supporters who buy her schtick, "be kind" has been permanently damaged by her use of it to many others here who can plainly see it's a hypocritical virtue signal.
