Westerners cna only interpret Daoism as a Quietism, which is obviously flawed.
As a westerner I need german idealism and there is no "peace" in german idealism.

I am saying a sliteyes could find "peace" in daoism, a non zipperhead needs to stick to his philosophy.
The """""""Quietism"""""", peace is a western spun narrative of daoism that doesnt represent it properly as a chink truly devouted to daoism would interpret daoism.
