"Be Kind"

[VelvetChairGirl]

when you hear or read those words is anyone else instantly reminded of the film Demolition Man?

I just instantly see the scene "be well", "be fucked".
to me no matter how it is used now it instantly gets my back up and I raise my middle finger to it, London Transport have been using it in their advertising for social distancing, if anyone tell me to "be kind" I will do the opposite out of spite now.

is anyone else the same?

Anything short and snappy is snapped up by people who are just performance junkies. I don’t think Brexit would have happened if it didn’t have a snappy name (and ‘ remoaners’ as a rebuke).

was anyone ever called a remoaner to their face?

I am very anti brexit and pro EU, I dont recall anyone in the real world ever daring to say stupid words like that

The worst thing about the "be kind" slogan is the people that preach it seem to be the opposite

Nowadays I hear

Be kind = sit down, shut up, do as you're told, be a good girl now
