I was in bed and i was bored

Yh there's a lot of things which would have to be like a deep dive, I skimmed it and that's the general global idea
So much for bored am i right
But thing is um some stuff like UN isn't exactly the best as a reason
Un???
But the un is pretty much a good reason
U wrote UN lol, United Nations
OH I thought smth else
Yeah ik i was surprised like un?????
No one likes the UN or it's decisions, even their decision making is severely flawed
It's a whole other topic but I won't go in a deep dive abt it
Agreed i brought it up bc it's with the topic but the un is a a whole different topic that we need a new argument for
Yh it still works for ur argument even tho I disagree with it, it's still an official thing
If i had time i would argue saudi worked the hardest in the region to keep stability between the country of the region but i have school and you won't see me for a while anyway 😢
Fuck school man

Well they are the biggest nation so ofc they would
It doesn’t take more than 2 brain cells to know that being rich isn’t inherently evil
There are rich people that are good people
There are also shitty rich people and the same goes to good poor ppl and shitty poor ppl
You keep whining and bitching about the same shit so yea I’m gonna comment the same shit💀💀💀
You’re definitely bitter and you’re definitely broke
Instead of crying on discord you should get your money up
I believe I've issued an argument for this specific line of reasoning... at least 3 different fucking times at this point.
So let me break it down and use the easiest analogy I can.
I walk up to man dying of dehydration in desert.
I have gallons, upon gallons of water.
a literal supply train of water.
I do not offer the man a cup.
I am an immoral piece of shit.
hol on now.
lemme use a diff angle.
I operate a water farm.
I have 1000 employees.
let's say my water farm is worth 1 billion waters.
which means 1 employee, roughly contributes 1 million waters to my water farm.
But I pay my employees only a 1/10th, or even 1/100th of what they bring in water profit.
does this not seem like an exploitative system.
or do I need to break it down further, because if I do, don't bother, this is quite literally the lowest level I can go in comprehension without deadass going, 'unga bunga,' 💀
holy FAH.
💀
Fucking retard over here, saying 'not all rich people are evil' is like saying 'Not all slave owners whipped their slaves' to someone saying 'slavery is immoral'.
Again, you've yet to address the actual moral framing I am targeting, and given me an example that disapproves NOTHING of substance in my stance.
SONION.
😭
She ain't gon let u hit vro.
Being rich doesn’t mean they aren’t people.
Would you genuinely mourn Brian Thompson, Richard Sackler, or quite literally every other ceo who overlooked health risks for benefits? which is.. if you didn't know, a grand, overwhelming majority?
Not every rich person is bad.
Hell, people have cancer from asbestos, PREVENTABLE Cancer, do you know why these people got cancer that was easily preventable? because they deemed it, 'too expensive and would cut into profit margins'
Not every slave owner whips their slave.
Some members of X are morally decent ≠ X itself is morally justified.
💀 
SON.
