Go ahead and be a pessimist all you like. No need to embroil others in your misery. Honestly if you really don't care then why toss shit at someone about their character, as if you're some paragon of virtue? Pick a fucking lane and stick to it.

I'm not miserable, quite the opposite. And I have the right to share my opinion as everybody else.

And why paragon of virtue? I just repeated their accusation back at them to show how ridiculous it is to couple the evaluation of character to one thing.

But as it seems most people on here are fine with ignoring the complexity of a person.

I don't owe you consistency :D

The right for people to survive is not an opinion. It is non negotiable

Hostage negotiators and murderer would beg to differ I assume.

Maybe the world is a bit more complex then the writings on your coffeemug suggest.

The murderer usually can't convince a negotiator to shoot the hostage, and that's a false equivalence

as the negotiator and the murderer are not debating on if the hostage is worth saving

A hostage negotiator negotiates for other people to live.

A murderer just takes a life without negotiations.

You say those things don't exist, I'm telling you that reality shows that the right to life is negotiated everyday thousands of times.

You talking about how the world should work, I'm talking about how the world works right now.
