If there's actual events to be outraged about, then we should talk about them instead of fictions. If there's only manufactured events, then it isn't an issue in the first place. This is different from hypotheticals too. A realistic hypothetical holds as much water as an actual event. If there's a 1% chance of a catastrophic hypothetical, and it happens hundreds of times daily, that's a big fucking deal. To put it another way, if there's something to be legitimately outraged about, why bother with creating fictitious scenarios? permalink fedilink source parent [–] Prandom_returns@lemm.ee 15 points 2 years ago If you think this context makes it OK, you're fucking delusional lmao. permalink fedilink source parent
