How do you feel about this?
Here's the scoop from USA Today:
Brandon Dill, 31, had his eye set on Silverwood before the Southern California development had houses to show. The community, set in the Inland Empire about 80 miles east of Los Angeles, promised affordable homes in one of the country's most expensive states to live, events to bring neighbors together and access to beautiful parks and trails.
Dill persuaded his wife, Cathy Khoonsrivong, to look at the development as they prepared to be first-time parents. She approved, and Dill signed them up.
One document in their new housing paperwork gave them pause: A 'Kindness Pledge.'
Are you sure it's a community and not like a … you know … cult?
It may sound like something from a movie like Pleasantville, The Stepford Wives, or The Truman Show, but this "kindness pledge" is apparently a real thing.
The pledge said Silverwood is 'creating a place that feels familiar, like the small towns our parents and grandparents grew up enjoying.'
'A place where everyone knew everyone, where neighbors would care for each other, watch out for one another, or simply bring a warm meal when you didn't know you needed it,' the pledge reads. 'We know when we care for one another, listen openly to one another, and consider each other's needs, the strength of our community will mirror the strength of the desert around us.'
But who defines what "kindness" means?
For example, if you have a Trump sign on your lawn, would that be considered "unkind?"
(Asking for a friend.)
We all know how the tolerant Left doesn't tolerate people who believe or vote differently than them!
If you're wondering about the legality of such a document, you're not alone.
Initially, Silverwood developer John Ohanian wanted to create a kindness contract. But his lawyers told him it wasn't possible.
And if someone dares to violate the "kindness pledge"... what happens?
'We're not trying to force it,' he said. People who don't follow the pledge 'just won't have the experience living there that they could. It won't be as fulfilling an experience; it won't be as positive.'
And you'll probably just end up chained up in the basement in one of the community's homes.
We've all seen these movies before.
