Someone you love is shaken up after a nightmare. They come to you for a hug. Do you comfort/hug them or refuse because it was just a dream and it’s not worth feeling sad about?

I mean... it doesn't matter why they're upset, you try to provide some comfort for them anyway. For all people in all cases. Because someone is hurting and making them feel better is (usually) easy. Like... what kind of person *wouldn't* do that? It costs nothing!
That’s what I think, too. I was always taught that this stuff was unconditional. Though it seems the counter argument is “pandering to imaginary stuff won’t make them stronger”.

I have a *lot* to say about that broken-ass perspective! Firstly, yes, it does make someone stronger. Relying on people around you isn't weakness, it's strength. Exposing what makes you hurt *is* strength. People aren't rocks, we're squishy, and neglecting people isn't helpful.

Secondly, Nietzsche (and Rand) was wrong about life. It's not a struggle against each other for domination, it's a struggle against what holds society back. Nothing permanent and positive was ever achieved by an individual. Humans are pack animals and we owe each other compassion
