hmmm

Consider for a second that in a non violent society that ethos would make sense but this planet is violent, most species depend on violence in one way or the other to survive, which most consider sad, but it is the order of things...

The system in general prefers their subjects docile, hence religions and new age influencers will always push for people to put the other chick, not to fight, to forgive no matter what, to avoid all forms of violence, but that is not the natural order of things... not to fight back for what is right is not only the source of many of our problems, but furthermore, induces in the victims of injustice in the form of violence; confusion, repressed anger and trauma together with a feeling of insecurity and despair...

I would love a planet with no violence but we chose one quite different to live in...

Picture a gazelle "forgiving" the lion: extinct by tomorrow. Violence is this planet's primordial language, carved into every ecosystem. Power systems know this - hence they market illusions of non-resistance: reframing submission as spiritual virtue, passivity as wisdom.

But when you crush the instinct to defend what you love, you don't become noble: you become complicit. Repressed rage doesn't vanish - it ferments in society's gut, becoming collective depression or destructive explosions.

True progress isn't denying our predatory nature, but channeling it. Using the fire within us not to burn bridges, but to illuminate injustices. Because even the sun, source of all life, is controlled nuclear violence.

have to agree with Lana, the irony, your intention may be good, but people that tell others to put the other chick are part of the problem, I assume most of them are just naive, but a problem either way
