      'course, but to quote the age old adage people are starving in Africa? shit we essentially funded government run in slavery in the mdidle east, but no of course everything is fine cause you’re able to get outside on your ride to work.

      Sorry if this sounds a little harsh, I just worry the human brain gets some floating point rounding error when thinking about these issues, aka we can’t compare such big and small things - so things like this although positive are to most more of s distraction from greater issues like the super rich, than an actual solution (and like shit the rich had a rape island where we were just like dang, too bad no one can be convicted :/)

        Not allowed to fix anything but the things of your choosing! In the order of your choosing! Bring everything else to a screaming halt!

          I mean this post is able rape right? Obviously a horrible thing, then what do you think of the zero epstien convictions? Or is it OK to rape as long as its not directly in your face, so you can feel good about yourself.

            See my previous comment.

            Oh here I’ll copy it:

            I think this will work for your next reply too. And the one after that. Etc.
