    Being nice does not make you good. We need to stop conflating the two things.

        Yeah those memes are usually posted by people who are neither nice nor good.

        I’m more talking about people who will steal from you (or another not-nice activity), then play nice while denying it, then accuse you of being unhinged because that pisses you off, making you the bad guy because you swore or whatever.

          That’s yet another type of “nice person” than who is cited in the OP. IMO, the OP is talking about the kind of people who want peace over security. The kind of people who don’t care about school shootings unless they happen at their school. The kind of people that would unwittingly befriend nazis because nazis can use polite words when in the “correct” company.

          Y’know, cliche American suburbanites.

            Ah yes, I work with those types too. God I hate humanity.
