I don’t think that means are worth the end
But the scenario you outline above is literally the opposite of that.
You said you'd choose to force feed everyone horse shit instead of food if it brought about the end you desired.
You're saying the completely opposite thing now.
I think maybe we do want the same thing, but we're disconnecting at some level of this conversation and we're not going to get anywhere unless we get on the same page.
I didn't lose the metaphor. You just took it for a turn I didn't expect.
I was actually giving you the benefit of the doubt that you're not a horrible person, but here you are straight up saying, in your own words, that you'd rather eat horse shit than lima beans, and you'd rather force your children, your loved ones, and your neighbors to eat horse shit than lima beans too.
I was expecting that you'd have some amount of empathy and the sense to eat actually food over something that could make you extremely sick or kill you. But you don't. So as I said above, I don't think we can communicate on any meaningful level. You are completely irrational and lacking in empathy, and we don't value the same things.
Yeah, talk about a loaded, dishonest question. When you're willing to poison the well that much, you can come to any conclusion you like.
Yikes. That's some bizarre logic. You'd actually choose to eat horse shit because maybe next time you won't have to eat horse shit, when you could just not eat horse shit now.
I don't think we can communicate on any meaningful level when you're this fundamentally irrational.
I just pointed out how you're unable to understand an analogy. You don't need to provide more proof of that.
I resent being placed in a position where my options are “genocide” and “more genocide”
So do we all. But that doesn't change the facts of the scenario.
being scolded by people who are happy with it.
And now you're being dishonest.
I don’t know if I have the privilege to keep serving them stale lima beans, when the stale lima beans are slowly killing them. I desperately need a new meal.
You have an obligation to do that, until there's a better choice.
In the meantime, we work on changing the restaurant. But until we do that, don't feel guilty at all about choosing the better of two options!
Imagine using an analogy to illustrate the difference between two choices.
It seems you can't.
