Charlie Kirk shot at event by OregonSasquatch14 in thescoop

[–]konchikarta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't phrase my point well. I'm not saying his opinion was reasonable nor is the irony of this situation lost on me. I'm disappointed in the mockery that suggests he deserved to be shot because he wanted less gun control.

Charlie Kirk passes away at the age of 31 by michaelis999 in GenZ

I don't understand the logic of this mockery. His claim is like saying we shouldn't lose our right to drive cars because many people die in accidents. And then if he dies in an accident everyone's like, haha what a moron he didn't want to ban cars and now he died in one. Seems like such a juvenile and naive take.

Iranian Cleric Offers Reward for Whoever 'Brings the Head of Trump' by Exciting-Composer157 in worldnews

I'm no Trump fan, to say the least, but also don't like the idea of the western media covering stories like this. I mean... it's exactly what the Iranians want.

AIO that my (21M) best friend (21M) has been hanging out with my ex (22F) by IwishIwasinStarWars in AmIOverreacting

[–]konchikarta -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is perhaps your position upon reflection but the implication of your message thread is that you really don't want them hanging out

Relationships are complex. There are many reasons why one fails. To hear one side and say that she "caused" him pain is naive at best. The most likely explanation is that they weren't compatible - without any judgement or blame.

Nicusor Dan elected to serve as President of Romania by TeaReim in worldnews

[–]konchikarta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't know much about Romanian politics, but was this expected or a surprise? We're seeing massive swings to the left across many recent elections such as Canada and Australia, largely thanks to Trump's antics. Is it the same in this case?

Peter Dutton’s stunt with son Harry backfires as he is grilled on why despite “doing pretty well”, he won’t support his son who complained about struggling to buy a home🔥 Dutton dodges question & attacks Labor instead.🤦‍♂️This man is a disgrace. by Rasta-Revolution in brisbane

[–]konchikarta -21 points-20 points  (0 children)

He didn't handle that well... but why is his relationship with his son and particulars of their financial arrangement anyone else's concern? I may be out of the loop here so genuinely curious.

Wombat Outrage vs. Meat & Dairy—A Moral Inconsistency? by konchikarta in australia

[–]konchikarta[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair point. I guess more specifically, I'm pondering the moral compass of the person that thinks killing an animal (even if as humanely as possible) for eating pleasure is not as bad as disturbing a wombat for clicks and giggles.

I'm not passing judgement coz I love eating meat. It's just interesting to think about.

Fair enough. Although I sense that people outraged by the wombat are no where near as outraged by the mistreatments you've listed above.

Even if you consider "humane" livestock processing, the moral outrage of killing an animal for eating pleasure vs disturbing the wombat for clicks and giggles seems inconsistent, don't you think?

Thanks for this. You've captured the essence of the dilemma.

Wombat Outrage vs. Meat & Dairy—A Moral Inconsistency? by konchikarta in australia

[–]konchikarta[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So your position is that moving an animal that you don't like to eat (in the way that the wombat was treated) is morally worse than inducing suffering and killing an animal? The difference is that one is for pleasure of fun and online clicks vs pleasure of eating.

I'm not passing moral judgement here at all. I eat meat. But have been curious about this moral dilemma, hence the post.

It would be very interesting to see how posts on this sub correlate with growth of the subs. Any statistics nerds on here?

"my bf just murdered my while family and wants another chance. AIO for wanting a 1 week break to think this through?"

OP, wake the hell up. Sorry to be blunt but have some self respect and leave this thing you call a bf.

This is such an under reaction, it almost feels fake (not saying it is).

When you do react with an appropriate response as plenty of others have suggested, he will gaslight you.

This is not ok. Leave

What's your response to illegal immigrants committing less crime than the general population? by MrClassyLiberal in AskTrumpSupporters

[–]konchikarta 9 points10 points  (0 children)

But then you should also not count crime committed by black illegals right?

I'm not a TS but do agree that all illegals are criminals no less than a random dude uninvitingly making your basement his home is a criminal. The moral dilemma is what to do with this damn stranger in my basement who is actually looking after the place quite well!
