cameron_valeWhy can't I argue against claims of suffering?
MrJameGumbI don’t know that I understand the question. Whose claims of suffering are we talking about?
Ok here’s an example.
Bob : “When I put on a dress people look at me funny, which is hurtful.”
Rob : “Meh, you don’t look very hurt to me.”
BAM. Rob has argued against Bob’s suffering, which is a sin. And now everybody will justifiably hate on you. Granted.
But why, exactly? What’s the logic here? Why does suffering get excepted from analysis?
What’s the point of the analysis? It doesn’t seem needed in any way in the example you gave.
This isn’t even really an “argument”, it seems like Rob is being judgemental for no real reason
No one asked for his opinion. No one put anything up for debate. It seems like he’s just being a dick to his friend.
Perhaps Rob should try having a bit more empathy?
You don’t know. Maybe Rob looks at Bob and it appears that Bob is having the time of his life. You don’t know. You have zero evidence.
And there you go. On zero evidence you brand Rob a dick.
Isn’t that interesting?
I based it on the information that you provided their buddy.
This seems more like you’re just airing your personal grievances because someone didn’t want to put up with your neckbeardy douchiness
Someone refusing to put up with your abuse does not mean you’re being “oppressed” dude
Stop being such a whiney baby about it and move on
Well we do have Rob’s testimony. Which is certainly vastly superior to your judgment based on minimal information. The obvious thing to do would be to trust Rob. But you prefer the minimal information. Interesting.
Again, my responses are based ENTIRELY on the information that you provided, so if I’m missing an important plot point that is your fault not mine.
I’m now realizing that the real issue that has started all this turmoil is that you are not anywhere near as smart as you seem to think you are.
It’s pretty clear that you didn’t actually come here to resolve anything or get any answers, but just to create some troll foolishness…
And I offerred you an actual witness. But you discard this perfectly good witness out of principal.
Back under your bridge troll! I’ll waste no more time on your troll hijinks today!
Rob has no “testimony”. Rob has questioned Bob’s statement without making any attempt to see things from Bob’s perspective or to ask Bob about his suffering. Rob, and by Rob I mean you, lack any empathy or curiosity that would open him to any possibility of understanding another person’s struggles.
He observed Bob and made a relevant statement. That is literally testimony.
