No, wtf? There's a difference between hate and disapprobation. Ethics and moral discernment without "bad energy" are certainly possible, and the failure to condemn malicious behavior is a stance in itself, and in fact a malicious one, even if it appears as a neutrality.

Also, bear in mind that universalist values like equality and pacifism are fundamentally rooted in antagonism themselves. Pacifism is specifically against violence, nonviolent. Equality is specifically anti-racism, anti-sexism, and so forth. Although these are seemingly bleeding heart values, imo they are the ones which most necessitate active engagement and a deeper muscularity.

Look, I know your comments were meant to be read with an ambiguously facetious tone but I think they were also the symptoms of a weak and fearful underlying philosophy. (Am I being overly dramatic to infer this? Yes, but since I'm on this subreddit I'll allow it). Comments like the ones you made (and sorry for being invasive, some other comments in your history) seem to suggest a deeper confusion about how to balance kindness with strength, or conflict with non-aggression, which for guys is unsurprising because our society doesn't demonstrate paternal models of nurturance, insofar as nurturance is traditionally maternal. Broadly speaking, feminine values of empathy, responsiveness and care, nonviolence, etc, are blocked from male identification (aka, seen as "female" or compromises away from maleness) when in fact imo they are fundamental to a new robust masculinity that can successfully integrate valid notions of strength, rationality and freedom with qualities of interdependence, understanding and connection. What's good is that you seem to have your feminine side attuned as an INFP, but it's disconnected from your yang and that's what makes you seem like weak shit. The fact that you spend time in redpill is absolutely confirming its disconnection from an important "feminine" part of who yu are, as well as contributing to a degree of neuroticism because that is not a healthy community. I believe it conflicts with the way you truly see the world, and in turn, it is vandalizing your vision of the way things can be. I think you need to be serious and cultivate masculine qualities inside yourself independently, in a relaxed way, and only then can you start creating and genuinely identifying with a masculine self-image, an image which you currently appear to regard as separate from who "you" are. Only then will masculinity register for you as more than a facade or a tool, because it's not something foisted upon you by others anymore, it's something you've cultivated for yourself in a manner compatible with gentle-hearted sissy values. Don't listen to the redpillers whose entire philosophy revolves around a failure to connect to women authentically or meaningfully in the public sphere. Don't worry about the reactionary feminists (to the extent they actually exist) who pathologize desire and tell you not to love boobs and female bodies, look for the thoughtful pioneering radical feminists of critical theory who recognize that maleness can mean loving boobs and female bodies while also recognizing equal personhood. Aka, "objectifying" woman's body while ALSO, and necessarily, engaging with the depth of her subjectivity at the same time, wow. These are tensions between self and other, subject and object, familiar and stranger, which are really interesting on an existential and psychoanalytic level but which also are the basis for true interaction between different individuals. That is, in the simultanaeity of separation and connection between beings. Does any of this make sense? Yin and yang, man. Being INFP is no excuse for being an effete crybaby, as is the stereotype. It especially doesn't mean forfeiting your reality to the worldview a misogynistic cult. It means recognizing the need to put in overtime to produce something charismatic and new, in this case, where that "something" is yourself as opposed to a novel. Don't let the personality community's pitfalls of ossified self-characterization hamstring your growth into the person you are capable of becoming. Also, consider looking into the enneagram because you seem like a type 9. Get the books because the online resources are not very good, sadly.
