    A better analogy (without the joke) would be Kill the Poor Vs. Kill Some of the Poor. Not that either is good but I’d rather save the half.

      Is also true, are you still comfortable?

      The point being - why insist on and make excuses for continuing to play within the rules dictated to you by those in charge who will only ever let you choose one of the two options where many poor people die? Why are you people so fucking content with this charade and unwilling to think outside of the box literally designed to oppress you (or your neighbour, which seems acceptable to far too many)???

      You (personally, and in general) really need to consider with yourselves why the option of “refuse to accept this bullshit and fight for a system where no poor are required to die” (E: not even for the benefit of society at large, but literally for the benefit of a couple of hundred individuals who wouldn’t piss on you if you were on fire) doesn’t even cross your mind before you’re willing to condemn half of your class to death (as long as it isn’t you).
