The Importance of Kindness in a Cruel World

Despite the prevalence of cruelty in today's society, kindness is arguably more widespread and significant. The discussion highlights historical trends indicating that, over time, humans have become less violent and more compassionate towards each other and animals. Evidence presented suggests that although current global events can appear daunting, they do not overshadow the underlying kindness that humans naturally exhibit. This shift towards kindness is seen as crucial for societal progress and is supported by research from prominent psychologists who advocate for a kinder world.
