No shit.

https://www.cracked.com/blog/6-harsh-truths-that-will-make-you-better-person

"who you are inside" is the metaphorical dirt from which your fruit grows. But here's what everyone needs to know, and what many of you can't accept:

"You" are nothing but the fruit.

Nobody cares about your dirt. "Who you are inside" is meaningless aside from what it produces for other people.

Inside, you have great compassion for poor people. Great. Does that result in you doing anything about it? Do you hear about some terrible tragedy in your community and say, "Oh, those poor children. Let them know that they are in my thoughts"? Because fuck you if so -- find out what they need and help provide it. A hundred million people send thoughts and prayers after every mass shooting. What did the collective power of those good thoughts provide? Jack fucking shit. Children die every day because millions of us tell ourselves that caring is just as good as doing. It's an internal mechanism controlled by the lazy part of your brain to keep you from actually doing work.

Umm I don't think we're talking about the same thing. You're talking about taking action for the good of things vs just being vocal about it.

I'm talking about people who thinks just because they're a Christian means they can't be an awful person. Or if they're a leftist that auto makes them a good person.

True, but there are people who just kinda think this to themselves and then there are people who endlessly brag to everyone about how good it makes them; and the latter are infinitely worse.
