  Ok, i feel for the victims so that means i have no empathy right? I really do think tbe rapists and violent assholes can die in a fire. So i should die in a fire. I get it.

    You’re only extending empathy when it’s convenient. I feel for the victims, the unknowing consumer, all of the other rape victims in the world, and you as well.

      While I don't disagree, I haven't engaged with eatthecake for a reason.

      I don't think you have to be a genius, to understand why someone might be so angry about this topic.

      I think we can empathize with them, but that it's better not to engage.

        I disagree. There’s a real benefit for engaging even the most delusional, if you have the energy. Personally, shooting down shitty arguments is fun for me, and let’s me hone my own wit. Societally, you may have someone like the gent above who is expressing serious distress, and having the only voice coming back be that of… to be as charitable as possible, a troll can cause serious harm to an actual person. I think there’s a value to simply expressing that others agree with you.

        I absolutely understand being angry, that’s why I advocate for aiming your anger. Build allies, and you stand a chance of making change, or bash in heads and you’re left alone and overwhelmed.

        In all seriousness, yeah, I do, and I’m not going to defend that to you.
