Those who support progress promote civility; those who oppose it promote harassment and violence, no matter the political affiliation of the person who does so.

Quote
Let your heroes be known. Give praise and honor to those to whom it is rightly due. Spend more time posting stories about heroes than you do about the wrongs in the world. When we know about heroes and we see those who perform heroic acts, we too want to be heroes. There is a hero in all of us. Heroes are important.
