Why y'all so bloodthirsty? These people might not be destitute but they're not billionaires. They planned for a retirement and got it, and now they're getting evicted. They're victims of a cruel system that hurts everyone. Capitalism won't even reward people who "play by the rules", whatever those are supposed to be. Nothing wrong with having empathy. The same boot is stepping on poor people too.
Maybe if people's grandparents with nice retirements are getting evicted somebody will give a shit.
Humans suck. They always have. You can't expect them to do the right thing on their own. There must be laws, and there must be enforcement.
Why isn't the government stepping up to end this kind of greedy practice? Because it's made out of humans and, well....
... humans suck.
Sorry, but as a human I have seen the good things we also do. You look like you are surrounded by either humans with toxic personalities, people who are oppressed by capitalism (the rat race), or have some underlying mental issues yourself. Regardless of what the reason may be, please get mental help, and no this isn't in any way a funny pun or an insult to you, I just want you to know that you are loved and with mental help you can see how beautiful people can be (I did).
Please take care random internet stranger.
Thanks for being a good human, Internet Stranger.
See how I know that humans suck? You just assumed a whole lot of negative stuff about me, without knowing nothing about me. And I really, really want to think that you're being genuine, but you sound like the "I'll pray for your salvation, you poor lost soul" condescending crowd.
Regardless, that's fine. I made sure that my mental health is well taken care of, I surround myself with beautiful, supportive, well-rounded peeps, and I don't take unimportant things too seriously unless I'm bored.
You too take care, internet stranger.
Friend, “humans suck” is an easy opinion to hold if you’re already feeling defeated. Things can be better but enough people have to want it. I refuse to give up. I’ll do what I can, even if it’s only voting. Even if it’s just speaking up when people in my IRL life hold half-baked opinions and spread misinformation.
I will have hope, I think you should too.
Don't get me wrong. I'm an eternal hoper and I always do my part.
Yet I can still hold my opinion.
And that was a major red herring anyway. OP asked "why so bloodthirsty?" and the answer is that humans suck.
Well said.
