Oh poor babies! Let’s be real most of addicted people are adults that should be responsible for their own lives, I was addicted to alcohol and stopped, it was hard ofc. If they can’t maaaybe they shouldn’t try to game the system and own their mistakes?
Are you really not aware that chemical dependency is a medical condition?
And let’s say it is just a bunch of stupid weaklings who can’t get off the drugs because they’re so weak and stupid… why should they get fired or put in prison for it?
Yeah, and the poors need to pull themselves up by their bootstraps, transgender folks need to just make peace with what their mothers’ doctors said, underpaid employees should just go get a better paid job, and fat people should just stop putting food in their gobs until they’re thin. People sleeping on the street: they’re the silliest – they should just go inside!
Yes I am. And I find your inability to empathise with their situation particularly invalidating and demeaning. I hope you never make a mistake: I doubt you’ll be able to live with yourself.
You had zero opportunities to be robbed by a family member at knife point due to them needing a fix. Sorry not sorry, no compassion here, people like that should be forced either get off the drugs or go to jail.

And people with clinical depression just need to smile more, am I right?

I understand now, depression is exactly like drug addiction, no difference there, valid comparison, friend.

In that they are both medical condition? Yes.

You are defending drug addicts that are probably criminals if they are required to give urine tests, sorry your comparison is invalid and demeaning.

Good job!
