I also know people who were in good spots, but something happened. My mother’s best friend since high school is this lady, normal person living with a husband and 2 kids. Out of the blue, she gets a heart attack. Forgot if she’s got like 1 or 2 bypass. Her daughter was in the middle of college then, and her son just graduating high school, so it’s a lot of costs.
Guess what? Because she had a reasonably-sized family and previous savings, her heart attack didn’t even make a dent in her family. That’s, again, called being reasonable. Being excellent. You’re not in a good spot if your family collapses the moment you’re out of commission for a while, dude. That’s called just getting by, and being under massive pressure every single day.
Finally, why would that be insulting?
And now over here:
For one, my parents at least are the outliers that we have discussed and both acknowledged previously. Remember when I told you that those exist, but just aren’t significant to global trends?
You see me advocating for the genocide of our species anywhere? Right from the get go, I’ve said that what we need are harsher punishments. This species is horrible, but manageable if you were actually willing to crack down. It’s not “lost” unless we allow ourselves to become the farmer from The Farmer & the Snake.
Finally, what I said, verbatim, is I have my own issues as well, just on the basis that I am also human, and therefore it disgusts me to exist every day. Nothing about whether or not other people see anything.
And dude, where did I ever mention “the rest of you,” lol? I’m sure most people know how horrible they are deep down. Right now, I’m just trying to help 2 naive goofballs on the internet, among the massive sea of 8 billion humans in the world.
