Incredible troll lol. "Have you considered volunteering?" In response to frustration at a massive federal initiative being shut down is hilarious.

Now, I'm not gonna endorse the original position, but on some level it's also a non-troll. Enough time spent at a soup kitchen will turn just about anybody into Ron Paul. If you want someone to have realistic opinions on social welfare programs based on their actual impact in reality and not emotion and indoctrination then putting them into an organization that's actually trying to maximize good done for their budget and/or in contact with the recipients is a good way to do it.

In my experience the more time I spent volunteering the less of a libertarian I became. Structural problems require structural solutions, and the market can only solve some of them.

In any case, his reply didn't even address the main point and was very condescending. I respect the troll o7


Looking through your post history it seems you have a history of criticism and from my glance not much living experience of the things you proclaim to speak of.

I barely ever post here, I think it would be hard to know much about me from my comments. Sorry my teasing upset you

The person I responded to was condescending himself and clearly was emotionally dumping on someone else. I don't condone non-consensual aggression, abuse, and emotional labor that inexperienced left-brained engineers seem to think is a healthy norm. no troll intent here, seriously just hoping to share some empathy and suggest "Go do some emotional processing and stop dumping that on internet strangers and expecting them to do your emotional work for you"

I don't have intent to troll and engage in any aggression, it's not my interest. You can check my post history to see I have a long history in this community of non-troll engagement.

You can say what you want though, and I will still say I don't consent to doing your emotional labor for you.


Lol called it

I was just suggesting an outlet for the clearly emotionally distressed person to vent their emotions.

Don't insult and look down upon me with your projections of superiority and over valuing the material logical left brain over the right necessary emotional & intuitive brain/embodied arts.

Sorry you suck. I'm not down for that though.


I'm not looking down, I'm complimenting you on a troll well done.
