Where else is there really to go? You have to be rich to expatriate.

Which country?

Seriously? You wouldn't do crime to live?

Nah, it's fair. The health care dilemma is why I actually asked in the first place.

I don't understand why it is people don't revolt over it. The government is literally killing people and society itself just expects you to die and no one actually thinks about or appreciates the gravity of the situation.

Galaxy brain over here

He's so ubiquitous among the right wing here that I thought he was being charged in the U.S.

Are you sure about that?

Because your rape apologia is pretty obvious to everyone else, or do you think we haven't paid attention when apologists like you ran with the same excuses for years?

🤔 There has to be a way for someone like that to steal the money without actually harming someone though.

If it was me, I'd go find an ATM tucked away from view of a main street and bust that bitch open in the middle of the night. Pick the lock, apply acid or dynamite, something. Book it before the cops show up or set off smoke bombs as a distraction.

Sounds like a plan, Jesse

Who do you think comprises the judge, jury and executioner?

Juries are random people chosen off the street.

Judges are elected most of the time.

Executioners in states that still have the death penalty are just workers.

Everyone in government is a member of the public because that's what a government is.

Common sense

And then it says "No one cares about downvotes" or "downvotes don't matter" when you argue they actually do matter or that they need to be changed in some way.

Stop trying to push off your responsibilities onto others and do your damn job. You see rape apologia, you delete rape apologia. That's your job as a mod. If you can't be assed, find someone else to be a mod.

But don't come to me with a bunch of excuses to not do what you're supposed to be doing. Grow the fuck up and do it.

No no fam, they're omnivorous. They evolved to eat a starch-rich diet because they were domesticated by us for 15,000 years. They can eat other veggies besides grass -- carrots are actually good for them.

Again, you’re assuming facts not in evidence.

No, you're going along with the enabler's playbook quite smoothly. Right now, all you've got are cheap ad-homs so you're going after my confidence, life experience, and my emotions like what people like you always do to anyone who calls you out because you're wrong and you just want to win something. Well, you're not winning the argument. You lose. Get over it.

Again, you might not like hearing the truth but it doesn't stop being the truth just because you don't want to hear it. The remaining Reddit users are dumber than a box of fucking rocks. They're staying on a website that has done nothing but shit on its users throughout the year. They're allowing themselves to be subjected to a social credit score to have access to the site knowing damn well they could come here and get most of the positive benefits of Reddit without any of the drawbacks. Refusing to take advantage of alternatives and continuing to stay on an abusive website is stupid as fucking hell and you know it. There is no disputing that. It's as indisputable as 2 + 2 = 4.

Yet here you are, not wanting to admit it because you know that the remaining Reddit users, regular people, are harming themselves and you don't believe regular people should ever be held accountable for anything, only corporations. Well, the only way Reddit is able to continue functioning is because of those regular people. We're the ones who buy and consume shit from those organizations. We're the ones feeding those beasts and it's way, WAY past time for us as regular people to face the fact that we're culpable for the monstrously idiotic shit they've been doing, including and especially Reddit.

All human beings have the core obligation to take responsibility for their own actions and you are denying that core obligation because you don't want it to be true. That's entirely a you problem. Really an enabler problem throughout our culture.

People like you, man 🤦🤦🤦

I’ve seen it used as an excuse my whole life, people without compassion just telling someone its 100% on you, when its never that simple, Life is never that simple.

I've seen compassion used as an excuse to enable anything from childish, spoiled behavior to the most evil shit imaginable, from people like you who think you can just motte-and-bailey away the fact that you're excusing evil. What about it? 🤷 You lack the compassion you demand from others because you're not actually talking about or demanding compassion; you're just trying to manipulate the emotions of everyone around you to save terrible people from consequences, denying them the chance to experience reality for what it is and learn from their mistakes, and abusing everyone else.

You ought to learn compassion for literally everyone else around you, and accept that not everyone has to feel compassion for everyone. Humans withhold compassion and empathy based on behavior and we do that so that we're able to enforce rules and expectations in our communities, to protect the people we love and care about, to maintain boundaries. But you don't care about that because all you care about is yourself.

Even the weird false dichotomy of simple vs. complex you paint -- another terrible cliche from your camp -- does this. A lot of things in life are that simple, and a situation being complex doesn't change the fact that what someone's doing is wrong and that they need to be held accountable for it. Accountability, responsibility and decency mean more than that.

There's nothing complex about some idiot who keeps using Reddit despite the act being contrary to their best interest just like there's nothing complex about some rapist raping others. Yet you use the same excuses with both. You've even done it in regards to child killers. I've seen your camp do it on Lemmy with my own two eyes.

What you're trying to do is subtly imply that we cannot trust our own judgement or come to a conclusion you don't want us to come to -- that the remaining Reddit users are just idiots, in this case -- and you're not going to get what you want. They objectively are idiots and that's a fact regardless of how anybody feels about it.

We're not obligated to ignore facts because doing so inconveniences or threatens you.

I strive for the truth of things.

Its not enabling,

Stop lying.

Come back when you have some actual integrity. And stop defending stupid people.

Dogs aren't obligate carnivores, they're omnivores.

The fact that you think holding people accountable for their terrible choices is telling someone to F off tells us all we need to know about how you're approaching this.

You not liking to hear the truth doesn't make it any less true, and you are not doing anyone any good by protecting them from the negative consequences of their actions -- really you're harming them and everyone else. Doing that is destructive and quite frankly abusive.

You're far from the first person who thinks like this I've had to deal with and you, unfortunately, won't be the last. The only thing that snaps people like you out of it is when whoever you're protecting does something blatant and catastrophic, and even then sometimes you won't because you have selfish, underhanded motives for protecting them. In your case, it's likely because you still use some corporate websites and secretly feel offended when confronted with the fact that you're hurting yourself by using their services.

If telling you the truth is the equivalent of telling you to F off, as you put it, then you need to be told to F off before you enable even worse shit.

My bad fam, I misread you
