    Imagine feeling so strongly about this, yet not understand why if anyone actually cared and listened to your opinion, it would make the very problem you want to address, worse. I’m not trying to convince you of anything either… I’m explaining the function of humour to address difficult to talk about topics. And you’re going “no! No one should talk about it in any other way than in the seriousness of which it is” lalalacanthearyou. “… well, people simply don’t talk about it then. Is that what you want?”. lalala.

    You do you.

    Whether or not you want to be wrong about this, is entirely up to you. It has no effect on me. I’m just trying to help you out here. Seems it really it’s of no interest to you, which means I’m just wasting my time. You might as well just move on. I certainly will. Have a good one.

      It really is true that most of humanity is just unable to identify with the suffering of others unless they experience it themselves.

      I don’t wish it on anyone, not even to ‘prove a point’ but I’m pretty sure unless you are an absolute psychopath (which is possible) if you had a family member endure that horrific experience then maybe you wouldn’t be surprised that people feel strongly about it.

      But you haven’t and you can’t, so it’s just another piece of edgy humor for you.

      Must be nice to be so naive about the capacity some people have for inhumane abuse.
