@cocomnky Do you not consider southern or southwestern US culture to be real culture? Do you think all the Syrians are obligated to share their culture with you? Do you think they’ll like you? It seems like you have a pretty noble savage view of them

[Rory @medianglobalist]

@cocomnky What about the child of Syrian immigrants who was born in Oklahoma? What about an immigrant from Ontario? Greece? Russia? Someone who came from China and moved to Cali before moving to NYC (who is counted as a domestic migrant under NYC stats)? Where do you draw the line?

[Rory @medianglobalist]

@certifiedypper @Koraks_eros In the hypothetical you can’t choose both. The purpose of it is demonstrating whose life you value more and you value your pet’s life more than a baby’s, and that you value your feelings over the baby’s parents. And I am frightened that so many people think like this

@hiimbobbi I heard old school nyc lawyers talking about this show when it came out lol

[Rory @medianglobalist]

@certifiedypper @Koraks_eros Babies don’t have a voice either, the fuck? “Anyone would help the baby” APPARENTLY NOT!

[Rory @medianglobalist]

@certifiedypper @Koraks_eros If you’re being truthful about what you would actually do in the situation then yes I can make that judgment about you just as you can make your judgement about me

[Rory @medianglobalist]

@certifiedypper @Koraks_eros It doesn’t matter if it’s your “responsibility.” Other people’s lives matter outside of our own attachments.

Does your emotional suffering matter more than the baby’s family’s emotional suffering? Bc that’s the choice you’re making

[Rory @medianglobalist]

@certifiedypper @Koraks_eros Even if you don’t think that, your pets are not going to live as long as a human baby. You’re choosing 5-10 years of life compared to 60-90. The deciding factor is your personal feelings, and therefore you’re making a very selfish choice

[Rory @medianglobalist]

@certifiedypper @Koraks_eros It is BAFFLING to me that yall cannot comprehend doing something that is against your own interests for the sake of others. Just the definition of selfish and I hate that I share a society with such antisocial people it’s frightening to me

[Rory @medianglobalist]

@certifiedypper @Koraks_eros I love my pets more than a random baby too! But I’m not a fucking insane person like yall are apparently. MY FEELINGS DON’T MATTER in the situation. It doesn’t matter how much I love my pets it’s the wrong thing to do to save them instead.

[Rory @medianglobalist]

@certifiedypper @Koraks_eros and what do you mean “what do either of those have to do with this”??? Seriously ?

[Rory @medianglobalist]

@certifiedypper @Koraks_eros I don’t care what means more to you! My pets mean more to me than some random baby. But I’m still saving the baby bc I’m not a selfish sociopath 💀

[Rory @medianglobalist]

@certifiedypper @Koraks_eros Sorry I just don’t think my feelings are more important than a human life. I love my pets to death but they live for 15 years max and it’s extremely selfish to choose them over a child. And yes, low empathy, aka kinda psychotic!

[Rory @medianglobalist]

@pyfragoras They are second to how annoying Bay Area bros are

[Rory @medianglobalist]

@slaterson101 @ReggiSaxx @VagrantVillain Just loud and wrong

[Rory @medianglobalist]

@certifiedypper @Koraks_eros My feelings and “emotional ties” don’t matter as much as a human life that’s so fucked up. And I’m saying this as someone who rlly doesn’t like other ppl very much and would rather be around animals lol

[Rory @medianglobalist]

@certifiedypper @Koraks_eros I’m neurodivergent too and for most of my life my only comfort was my pets and tbh my only super close attachments are to my pets. It’s still psychotic and incredibly selfish to save a pet (which lacks sapience and has a shorter lifespan) over a human baby.

[Rory @medianglobalist]

@seemlikewhat @Kolba_Yada @JohnSmi44991977 @Princesspoppyl1 Yes tf? An elderly parent has lived a full life and the baby hasn’t even started theirs, in most cases with parents who’d be in the worst pain of their lives if that baby died. I don’t care that the baby isn’t related to me
