Everyone with exceptions. Add people who are toxic to others to that exceptions. Or try to flood them with love in hope to cure their toxicity. Your choice.
And surely it's not just black and white but gradual. You might be mildly toxic due to other toxic people and just haven't reflected enough yet. Or you might be a cesspool of hate and poison, way beyond the point of possible repair.
I surely can't fit all this into a simple formula. It's a general guideline. And if it's shit to you then just ignore and make up your own ๐
But once you add any exceptions, it's no longer "everyone", excluding a good chunk of the population and, for example, the guy in the meme might be from your exception list.
Yeah sure, I forgot everything is binary. My bad.
Not the guy you're replying to but the first half of your argument is silly. If I said "Everyone on Lemmy likes Star Trek.", would you still demand that every exception be named or would you understand that I was talking in generalities?
I understand that you mean I'm being unnecessarily pedantic, but I feel like in this particular case "everybody" actually has to mean everybody, or else the whole point is moot. There's very little value in saying "some people deserve love" or even "most people deserve love".
