edit - if you think about it, it's not all that different from the disparity between the feelings you get for an elderly person who passes away vs a child who passes away. one of them was in much better shape and had a much brighter future. i think the only reason you have to rebel against this notion is cause you are rich and thus thinking about how poor people's lives matter less to society in practice makes you uncomfortable.
I'm rich? You're so wrong bucko. Get back to me when you get your arrogant **** together.

@ monkeytennis

i'm just latching onto your post to reiterate my initial point tbh

and as for the isis videos... they are more potent cause of their up close brutality. i'm not denying basic empathy... of course we are going to feel bad for third world people if we're forced to watch them suffer on video

but generally it happens off camera so that's not such an issue

EDIT -

:laughing: what a teaser. you have something to say or don't you? i assumed you were relatively well off cause that's the impression you've given, but i was using the term rich there to describe you relative to some starving 3rd worlder. so i think it still fits, regardless of how mediocre your budget actually is.

So, what was your point?

John Wilkes Booth 11-14-2015 10:00 PM
That you got mad at me for pointing out something that was blatantly true cause you don't like thinking about yourself as a member of a society that would be so crass
