Proof of the indomitable human spirit.
Rules:
- Posts must inspire hope or highlight the beauty of existence
- Posts and comments harassing or antagonizing a real person will be removed
- Posts mentioning religious topics are allowed but religion should not be the main point of the post. E.g. “God’s beautiful world” is fine because of the “beautiful world” part, but “God loves you” isn’t because religion is the focal point
- Posts and comments judging group of people in negative way based on stereotype will be removed.
- No posts with toxic positivity. All human emotions are valid.
- Staight up doomer/doomer-trolling comments will be removed. Reasonable disscustion and asking for hope is fine.

We can hold the understanding that hurt people hurt people, while also removing them from power. In the Kali mythology, she didn't drink blood from bloodlust, but to prevent the rise to power of more of those ("offspring") who delight in suffering and destruction, to the best of my memory, which may be faulty, it's been a long time since I immersed myself in her mythos. I do find value in the Tao te Ching, as well, chapter 31 would address this. https://github.com/nrrb/tao-te-ching/blob/master/Ursula%20K%20Le%20Guin.md
But hey, that's my personal perspective, obviously not everyone shares it, nor are obligated to it.
