    I am not saying the moth memes do not have their place. I am saying that having innocents dying for 10 thousand years does not mean it’s acceptable to allow it just because of the length of time that it has been happening.

      I don’t know what part of the world you live in. But in my corner, we investigate murder, find the responsible and prosecute them.

      That’s pretty much the opposite of allowing murder.

        While at the same time allowing people to be systemically murdered through lack of access to necessities because someone wasn’t able to make a profit off of them.

        Or are you trying to say those deaths are justified just because the state doesn’t label it as “murder”?

          Again. I don’t know where you are from. But here. We don’t let people starve or freeze to death because they cannot afford basic necessities.

          It just doesn’t happen. I don’t have to say they’re unjustified or justified. I can say. They don’t happen in the first place.

      Wether it’s acceptable or not is irrelevant to scrolling through social media or the existence of memes, moth or otherwise. Seeing some memes after years of people endlessly posting about the various conflicts, (because you are tripping hard of you think no one has been talking about the genocide on this website…) doesn’t imply anyone thinks its “acceptable” to allow it (or is allowing it?).

      My point was you reading news articles won’t change anything. So why read them?

      Are you going to do anything but wallow in depression? Just doomscrolling all day?
