Why be kind? Don't be cruel. Be kind. — the answer, in sixteen languages (whybekind.org)
Why be kind? Not a command. A question. The answer starts with the one thing you can know for certain: one record exists. Don’t be cruel. Be kind. This record deposits the answer published at whybekind.org, the plain-words call to kindness of The 420 Code, in all sixteen languages of the site. Each attached file is the answer, word for word as the front page of the site says it, in one language, with its address. The same pages, with the whole argument (just logic, every step yours to check), are online in every language below. Languages and addresses: English: https://whybekind.org/ — Why be kind?
