I was in Peer Counseling in middle school, and this quote was on our t-shirt for the year. It's a beautiful concept, great photo :]

In one day, a picture of unoriginal writing on a piece of paper has gotten a quarter of the views that all of my art combined has gotten in a year.
Stay classy, deviantart.

Never look down on other people.. So you can ignore their existence.

Haha true, not the most original idea, BUT for good reason! I'm glad this is an idea that people have explored before, because it's very important. Thanks for repeating it.

To look down on someone, is somewhat a metaphor. Your not actually looking down on someone, but to have little respect for someone or to view someone as a lower human being than yourself.

Or unless they're refusing the help. :'I Some people don't want to be helped, especially when it comes to being educated.

This is what I think whenever I see all of the anti homophobe and anti religion stuff on the front page. Love it.

I think pity and condescension are still pity and condescension in this context. It leads to things where you look down on someone and out of the "goodness of your heart" aim to help them up but they don't need to be helped up in the first place. It's the fact that you're looking down on them that makes you think they need your help. Perhaps they don't. I don't think we should think less of people in any context.
That's just my opinion if you're looking at this metaphorically. If you're thinking of "helping them up" in the literal sense, as in they physically fell down, then okay.
