While I understand and agree that some should receive personal encouragement, this is public accolade which is obviously quite different.
I've higher expectations for individuals I choose to trust and for society in general. Meeting the minimums for humanity isn't good enough. The majority of the comments in response are exemplary of how we fail each other, and thus fail as a society.
if the goal is to try to reach other conservatives with this message, it has been shown that social normalization changes behavior better than shame or fear. they need to see their peers change their minds.
If you aren't training people--publicly--to meet the minimums of humanity, people aren't going to learn it. This is the entire emotional labor argument, writ large. People will say, "I don't owe you the emotional labor to explain this", or "you need to educate yourself", but the reality is that if you don't, no one will.
No, it's not fair. But life isn't fair. If you want thing to get better, then you need to be better, and you need to keep working to make shit change, instead of expecting everyone to be better on their own. The people that are intrinsically motivated need to motivate all of the people that are extrinsically motivated.
I believe I've invested the emotional labor to explain myself quite well: Good job. But, you need to do better to earn public accolade.
That's reality. Though some are still learning they're not children to be coddled.
