It didnāt say stop being a good person TO bad people. It says there are going to be bad people on earth regardless, but it shouldnāt change the fact that your aim should be to do good.

Being a good person doesn't mean just being kind and generous. It means to be that WHILE being cautious and careful

Lol as someone who has been one of these "good" people for a long time, it's hella hard to not get bitter. As you get older, it really becomes about allocation of energy and time.

Donāt let fear prevent you from being kind.

No

It's not fear, per se. Being cautious while being kind is good too.
Being kind with a cautious mind is important because people are willing to take advantage. You'll end up creating more problems than creating a positive mindset among others is what I'm saying.
Be kind always, but be wary of who you're being kind to

Being kind does not equate to being naive. And being kind is not about the benefits you get from it either.

People who only respond to power dynamics (most people on Earth) learn they can't walk all over you. This benefits you.
Keep in mind there are more clever and more effective ways to hit back than "eye for an eye" but that's the simplest way to stand up for yourself and it's easily understood and respected by most people.

I donāt think of kindness as something where anyone can take advantage. Kindness doesnāt require an exchange. You can be kind without giving up anything and without appearing weak. You can be kind to every person the same without risking anything at all for the sake of being kind.
You should use the same caution with people that you always would. You should expect people to show you the same kindness that you show them. You should set boundaries and not tolerate disrespect. Nothing changes in this regard depending on kindness.

Bad people have changed my idea of what a good person is.
Itās not the polite smile on the sideline. Itās the angry grimace on the front line fighting for equity and Justice.

Being a nice/good person is overemphasised, people who are nice tend to be nice. What one should tell them to be is be a fair person. Fair to themselves too.

Never stop being a bad person because of good people.
soup_gorl t1_j77ibof wrote
If being a good person is making you bitter, you might want to look at what āgoodā means to you. It isnāt something that should leave you bitter and drained. If it is, thereās motives and/or expectations there that arenāt truly good. Thatās on you to look at and be honest with yourself about.

Just excusing the ābad peopleā in your circle. Then we expect the people in power to be different. Seems pretty naive.
yoinktomyyeet t1_j7aozro wrote
well not snitching doesnāt directly mean excusing bad people. you deal with your bad people yourself in the first place. no one wants to draw attention or be in bad blood with something else
