Starving children in Africa...
    #8075622 -

Who gives a fuck? What are we benefiting from?

Your thoughts?

My thoughts are you're an idiot. You're clearly trying to be a racist on purpose, and it's rather fucking annoying. You can be a racist that's cool, frankly I think it's a natural thing, but come on, your threads are getting annoying.

My thoughts: We flood Africa with a myriad of dollar bills to alleviate a problem that will, inevitably, forever exist. Africa does not need any help from us. The United States is not some global hero and it definitely does not need to save the world from "terrorists" or "weapons of mass destruction".


And, personally, I don't really care about starving children in Africa. There are starving children 3 blocks down the street from me. Let's worry about them instead.

The benefit is obviously personal. You help people out, you feel good about yourself, what's so fucking hard to understand. No one is forcing you to feed starving black children.

There's not a lot that you can do as an individual other than recognize there are many humans on earth that are starving and unhappy because of how "developed" countries portray ideal living.

Though I have to agree, why the fuck should you care?

i have pretty much zero attachment to other countries. as long as they don't threaten my well-being, who gives a fuck. i am so far displaced from the starving children that i also could care less. if they were next door to me in an empty dirt lot, my feelings would be drastically different. but because i have no personal connection to them, i don't care.

i mean, what if we knew there were starving alien-humanoid species on mars. would you have any sort of empathetic feelings towards them?

they need to quit having so many damn kids, and then there wont be so many starving..

you wonder why there are starving children? is because there are too damn many kids.

you'd be starving too if everyone around you had at least 5 brothers and sisters and not enough natural resources to support all of you..

not to mention that you are kids and cant really work for what you eat and the parents dont give a shit.. they just make more kids..

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_birth_rate

that's a quick source i found..

seriously..

look at their population pyramid and you'll see what i'm talking about.

it's not the kids fault, it's the dumbass parents..

feel free to criticize me.. i'm just being real about these problems and it's late so i'm crass about it. (crass, i never say crass)

i gives a fuck good night.

we have become their natural resource.

i love how american success always reverts to guilt. fuck that. i feel fortunate to be where i am, and i am not going to take it for granted and selflessly piss away my money on other people that i feel no connection to. sorry if that is inhumane, i view it as logical appropriate. if i had money that i deemed i could give away, i would gladly do so.

it's all about perspective man - put yourself in their shoes. we've been dealt some pretty good cards and they've got a fixed deck, i don't feel guilty about having a better situation than them, i think it's just pretty cold not to even empathize with how INCREDIBLY fucked up this world is

I think that in "developing" countries where your assets are limited, having many children happens for a couple of reasons. a) because of a lack of contraceptives and b) because kids ARE your assets, you want as many of them as possible so that the odds of one of them being successful/productive/whatever increases with numbers

i understand how fucked up the world is. i still find it difficult to empathize with anyone i don't know or haven't had a connection with. sorry, it's just the way it is for me.

If we continue to feed them, they'll continue to fuck. There's definitely a feel-good aspect to it, no doubt, but throwing food at the problem is the problem.
