    Compassion is a part of human nature.

    I think that people who need to be cared for should be cared for.

    I think that’s a different issue than the one presented in the meme.

      Is there a point of disability at which you no longer believe someone should be cared for? Like, say someone is colourblind and has no other conditions, do you think that person needs to earn their life?

        So… let’s keep this in the context of the general population.

        There seems to be a subset of perfectly well adjusted able bodied healthy adults that complain about anything that distracts them from video games.

        I think that’s a problem.

        How about you?

          No, those are imaginary people you made up to complain about. And if you act on the existence of those fake people, you’ll harm actual people.

                  It’s really hard to actually accept that as a capitalist’s opinion. Liberals tend to say all kinds of nice things, and then turn around and pass policies that completely contradict that. Like, y’all say I deserve to live and then you don’t implement a UBI. It’s like you’re lying to yourselves that you’re actually nice people.
