A punch to the face is the quickest ay to get those that tell you to shut up to shut up themselves.

Yeah I'm not against kicking someone's ass but thing is? Meeting violence with violence is pretty much the norm back home. I kind of want to break them out of it.

[cruel_kindness]

Eh, it's not so much the violence as the type of violence. Or the reason for it. Because sometimes pain can be very, very kind.

I don't really think the ponies I know would be able to grasp that.

Hey, if we could help you out with that, we could. But for now, we gotta deal with Pale.

Still, Cruel Kindness is a very good lesson to teach.

So I'll admit I'm not sure what the hell you're even saying the funk is cruel kindness meant to be?

[cruel_kindness]

Okay... example time. Let's say I'm some all-powerful unicorn that can do absolutely anything I want to and you have a difficult problem that needs to be solved. You come to me for help. Instead of just waving my hoof and solving your problem for you, I set it up like a game you can beat on your own and reward you when you beat it.

See, it's all about helping others get stronger and better themselves. Some kindness helps, some kindness can stagnate, and some kindness can grow.

Sure that helps them grow but it kind of sounds like you're helping them grow into what you want them to be, not what they should be.
