Comment on Anon gets calls from scammers

  I’m a bit lost. I didn’t justify using racist terms. I’m saying that scammers lack the core traits of humanity, compassion and care in others.

  And they don’t deserve anything, let alone feeling comfortable in a conversation, or the air they breathe.

  That is regardless of race, sex, gender. If you scam someone else, you don’t deserve life.

    I get scammed every day on a near daily basis. I get scammed when my landlord raises my rent without fair cause. I get scammed when I look at inflated sale prices at my local grocery store for already shrinkflated goods. I get scammed when I get fees and tips tacked on to my bill when I go to the movie theater or a restaurant. It’s fucking infuriating but I don’t wish death upon my waitress, the store owner, or even my landlord. It’s all just unregulated capitalism in action. Scams, big or small, make money, and money moves us forward.

    Just because some degenerate across the world with a funny accent who I will likely never interact with plays by the same rules doesn’t mean he should be thrown into a wood chipper. IMO.

  Plain old insults have now graduated to dehumanizing? Move the goalposts much?

      They are? Being human relies on community and compassion for others. If you scam someone else, you deserve nothing but the dirt you walk on, let alone the clothes on your back. Regardless of gender, race, sex, etc.

        Mate, i dont like scammers either but a. Dehumanization just isnt cool. Not for anyone. b. I do think that Scammers should face justice, but denying their humanity just means that “i can treat them however i like and no amount of pain is too much lol. cuz they not humaaaaaan.”
