It's what you dont do that people remember. Being kind to strangers holds no weight if there's no one to witness, because they need to see to believe. Your word is no longer a valid determining factor in a persons moral being. I blame those who pull streams of lies out of their asses, allowing the gulible to lap it up like dogs, their demise inevitable because of the lack of morality among their so called friends so emersed in their own wellbeing theyve forgotten the general principles of humanity.
