I'm sorry to tell you that this is naive. Some people are just awful. Telling them they're awful or showing them won't change anything. You're living under the delusion that people at their core are on equal footing of being basically good. They aren't. It takes great effort and introspection to even move the needle toward good, and no one ever achieves it fully.

Take someone like Donald Trump. You think that guy has value buried deep inside? He doesn't. He is proud of his awfulness. You think the right words or right people in his life at 77 years old are going to bring out something meaningful? C'mon...

This is a great point for the vast majority of opinions. I have an aunt who's a flaming, angry conservative. She and her husband lost their jobs because of Obama tax increases and he now works as a flunky for his brother.

I understand where she's coming from because I listened. Didn't stop me from blocking her eventually, though. One must limit the amount of toxicity one sees on a daily basis.
