Very much appreciate this reply 🙏

Hmmm, and the third party developers are the reason they’re not profitable?

I wish you’d own your point of view instead of using weasel words. Do you support the respect and dignity of all people or not?

Have you even heard that they were missing before this comment?

How could anyone who’s been on beehaw in the last few days not have heard about the Pakistani migrants?

How could anyone in this thread not have heard?

We absolutely pick and choose whose lives have value.

I don’t know who you mean when you say “we”. If you mean governments and power structures then yes, I agree and it’s one of the biggest flaws in our society. If you mean individuals, then yes, some people do, but it’s wrong to do so whether it’s billionaires, migrants, or anyone else. And I know a lot of people have a hard time with this.

Disagree re: strawman, plenty of people are saying fuck the five billionaires in the sub.

This viewpoint is misguided and inhumane, I’m sorry to say. We don’t get to pick and choose who’s lives have value, even if they do something risky or stupid.

I don’t see why I should then have a huge amount of sympathy when these people inevitably die.

Ugh

beehaw: the enlightened platform where you can dehumanize people as long as youre polite and well-spoken about it

I think it’s unreasonable and a huge generalization. Tell me what the 19 year old billionaires son did to contribute to human suffering.

exactly, why isn’t this a gpl violation
