@Natanox @michaelgemar @cjust @hannu_ikonen Pratchett was a compassionate angry man, who knew Human Nature as petty. The most loved characters were Granny Weatherwax and Captain Vimes.
Both kind, but not nice. Forever striving against the worst of themselves. Through those characters some of us learned to serve the community despite what the world is like.
Society is cruel. People are petty, occasionally there are cinnamon rolls of people who still have flaws and learn to do better.
