  • You can make broad generalizations like that, and, generally, there is some truth to it. But that doesn’t defend YOUR actions. YOU are doing nothing to fix this. That is the point.

    I get that other people are also not doing enough, that’s a legitimate criticism, but it is not a defense, and it is a deflection when people point out your actions and you point that out.

    If you think no evil is better than less evil, I agree with that. But where is your no evil? You cannot make effective change by watching people die because your principles wouldn’t let you choose anything other than no evil, because… That isn’t a no evil choice?




  • That is so fucking stupid.

    A lesser evil can also lead to less evil incrementally as progress is made. What you’re arguing for is to say that people should take a lesser evil and then take EVEN LESS evil than that. Your insistence on perfection will kill people.

    I get that you want to be sanctimonious, but saving one person now is better than saving two people tomorrow, because it has the potential to also save two people tomorrow.

    Watch as I use your same logic against you: Your no evil strategy resulted in Trump, and those Palestinians are grateful that you exterminated them faster. Nice going!

    See how stupid that is?
