TotAll 05/13/22 8:59:20 AM #1:	I feel what defines more progressive, left leaning views is essentially empathy. The problem I see is that there's a lot of self proclaimed "liberals" that don't seem to have any, and just adhere to certain views in order to be able to judge others. It's more about "winning" than it is about actively or passively helping others. A lot of them excuse themselves in "I can't, I don't have enough money/time to give", not realizing the privilege that simply being able to post here implies, compared to most of the world. Worse, some even say "posting about this is a form of activism". Why not just straight up use some of your time to actively help others? ~~Because that's not the endgame. The endgame is feigning moral superiority.~~ <cite>TotAll posted [p:965002626] in I feel a l...

Squall28 05/13/22 9:35:27 AM #12:	A large chunk of them want to help the "poor" because they are the poor. It's more about money in their own pocket. Got a nice chuckle out of it when people started freaking out about Biden proposing a salary limit for loan forgiveness, and they would get left out. It's certainly better than the poor rural Republicans voting to help the rich against their own self-interest, but it's still laughable considering how sanctimonious they are about it. --- You can't go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending. -Misattributed to CS Lewis <cite>Squall28 posted [p:965003190] in I feel a l...

The problem I see is that there's a lot of self proclaimed "liberals" that don't seem to have any, and just adhere to certain views in order to be able to judge others. It's more about "winning" than it is about actively or passively helping others. Isn't this every group though? Kinda like how many of the "conservatives" that rail against gay rights and abortion, end up being closeted homosexuals or get caught paying off their mistresses to get abortions?
