Tough love is not going around trying show people how heavy handed you are, people who do that are bullshit. Tough love comes from the same thing compassion comes from, the difference is tough love doesn't take it easy on anybody.
There's a difference between showing tough love to somebody and trying to silence or kill anybody who doesn't see things your way because you dont like the way they think, that's not tough love, its bullshit.
