Truth (and honesty) can be told with kindness. That's the counterpoint.

Screw this everyone should feel good about everything crap but please be kind. Say the things that need to be said, but remember not everything needs to be said. Being blunt is better than evading.

But kindness is not weakness. If the person you're talking to works well with brutal honesty, have at. You'll probably have a lot of fun. :)

The point is caring about the other person rather than treating them like a punching bag.
