    But I’m not seeing them hurt! Neither are you! You’re seeing news reports and things that are spun to make you feel bad. You aren’t over there right now witnessing it with your very eyes.

    I bet you’ve never even witnessed real combat death or even so much as a violent car collision.

    So again - stop, fucking, putting, words, into, my, mouth.

    I find no enjoyment in hurting other people - which is why it doesn’t bother me; Because I’m not doing it!

    Is not the same as

    I don’t enjoy hurting people but also don’t care when I see them hurt

    It’s simply not. You’re adding the seeing part to the equation. Learn to read. Learn to understand.

    I don’t fucking watch TV. I don’t ingest tiktok, or facebook, or fox, or cnn, or msnbc, or instagram, or much social media at all. I don’t see it. I don’t care about it. It doesn’t show in my feeds. It doesn’t affect my life.

    And you know what? The same goes for you. There’s a million atrocities going on in the world right now; you’re ignorant to 99.9999% of them. And you don’t want to know about them. Because you’d be so overloaded your head would spin.

    The difference between me and you, is that I know that I don’t know about them, and I prefer it that way. I don’t need to fight for every single cause that passes in front of me.
