Who’s defending it? That one dude?

Someones main focus being controlling their addiction/disorder has nothing to do with the fact that shaming people for the way they look doesn’t do anything to help them

Y’all can’t be this dumb

You're describing a utopia. We dont live in a utopia.

1st world countries benefit massively from poor countries because they provide much cheaper labour, i.e. sweatshops

sharing with the poor is against the Capitalists interest and would do a massive disservice to them, so why would they do that?

I mean to a certain extent on options, but its sooooo slim

There is not a lot of feasibility in being able to buy better off foods when situationally it becomes less and less of an option

Lots of poorer people don't have the virtue of supporting good eating habits amongst each other unfortunately

Its not as easy as it seems to you

So why not say capitalism sucks if t*** nothing more nothing less instead of going on rants about landlords and the homeless? Why put the story if it’s just about capitalism?

because the story is the supporting evidence

ik her goal has been reached and u dont expect people to donate but its easy to put the link in op man even if nobody donates u should at least TRY, all this arguing isn't going anywhere man. i agree with u for the most part on what ur saying but u shouldn't be making threads just to argue, synopsis. there's more that can be done, maybe im naive idk

Under a genuine left wing social dem or even socialist president I highly doubt it would be “against their interest”

the real issue is getting access to social safety nets like disability and rental assistance is so f***ing hard because the governments systems are archaic.

what needs to happen is huge investments in our cyber infrastructure so people can easily go to a website and apply for disability or other forms of assistance.

it’s so hard to get any type of help because everything is state by state and the back ends of those websites are run like s***

another example of government failure

If it’s not about the evidence you shouldn’t put it in op and use it as an example

Sounds to me like an earlier post ITT along the lines of "complaining about a system but not doing anything about it" was spot on You could've just added the link after it was given to you instead of finding reasons not to, wouldn't hurt at all to potentially help someone experiencing the harsh consequences of the system you're so opposed to

cop out answer #3132211

You didn't even read past the first sentence of his paragraph but you're offering to give him an entire book to read.

Because homeless dont have credit and s*** so the leasers cant judge risk and can end up losing money

Whether or not u agree with that is irrelevant but thats the mentality

i am once again asking you to stop missing the point

so the government should seize the land and let the homeless people live in it. simple

the statement by itself means nothing and wont change anyones mind

when you supplement that statement with real life examples (like how the pandemic has led to poor people being forcefully evicted en masse) it gains credibility and can actually convince people that the system is flawed

Are you going to change poor peoples minds on how they are eating, or do something in a community to actually help?

You sound really bitter about it tbh

i know it was a profile bet but your username and avi make me crack up every time i see you in a thread

Have u not seen the price disparity between s*** like McDonalds and organic food?

Then why’d he go on rants about landlords and homeless? It seems that was his goal and capitalism was just the way to reel people in

I asked him if he wanted to, i didn’t say he had to. He doesn’t even have to respond if he doesn’t want to.

Did you purposefully only read half my post to reply with a question...

It says right there doctor or somehow work with etc.

So are you? Yes or no.

To answer your question (see I'm not rude)
yes, you have to be some kind of professional before making blanket statements about how addicts should or should not conduct their lives, especially when said statement totally disregards their realities for your idealistic view of what those people should do.

So again are you a doctor or professional in that field, or are you just dictating how you feel addicts and people with disorders should live?
