In this Western society where nonstop hedonism is celebrated and promoted, Who advocates for "the silent uncool"?
One who lives their life with a strong moral compass who doesn't participate in the unfettered hedonism of the day is often made a pariah.
The behavior towards them can be mean, insulting and nasty.
Subsequently, we go out of our way to protect and coddle people who may have done foul, mean, nasty things. We want them to not feel embarrassed, we care about their feelings. This is not a bad thing, everybody deserves to be cared about. It's a virtuous act to have empathy and compassion.
....BUT, what about the silent ones? Who cares about them. Who reaches out to them to see how they feel?
