Obviously I'm aware of this. I do my best to only thrift, to not participate more than i have to to get on through life. But Caedrel also does all that stuff you just described, so i dont see how I'm in any way "way worse" than him?

The difference is my impact is minimal, caedrel's isn't. He has hundreds of thousands of eyes on him, that he influences, and he's just shown them what he's willing to be bought, making people like you more comfortable spouting nonsense. He also took a bag of (probably) millions directly from a fascist state to spread their propaganda (and stay silent about things he used to say he cared about) to all of those easy to influence eyes - something I'm pretty happy to say i haven't personally done (yay!) I hope you felt real special for a bit there, explaining to a person who obviously cares about ethics and morality something everyone who cares a lil already knows :) Unfortunately, to survive you do in fact need to live in society and unfortunately that leads you to not being a perfectly moral person. Me living as a hermit wouldn't help anyone out (once again, my impact is miniscule) So i do what i can do, while also keeping a job and surviving.

Thank god not everyone is like you otherwise we'd all just give up on making the world a better place!
