You may not like it. You are probably even afraid of it. I understand that, But it is not corrupt. I chose "swept back into the corners" to see if you can handle it. I could use softer words, but the end would be the same. My claim may be cold, as in cold hard facts, but to claim it is in anyway "moral bankruptcy" or that it is "indefensible" is lame.


No, my morals include everybody. I don't do "make me feel good morals" to plead special cases. I listen to the case itself. Like that poor Gorilla. You have to understand that every choice we make causes harm to innocent people. So I ask you again, who, in your opinion, is the largest group of innocent people hurt by the choices we are making?

You apparently misunderstood what I wrote. I didn't say anything about what I liked or didn't like. I said that what you wrote was immoral. Please read it again:

So please stop making excuses for what you wrote or trying to blame other people for it. You wrote it. Take accountability for it. Live with the rightful condemnation of it.
