I have experienced people just as Thompson has. Those who have not suffered, whose lives have gone as planned, who have health, wealth, and happiness, tend to think they have these things because they are better than those who do not. I find people like this to be self-righteous, controlling and judgemental. In short, unkind. And yes, kindness increases with suffering and acceptance of suffering as a positive state.
Maybe it's just me.
