It really is that simple.
@punissuer @amerpie ^^^ Came here to post this.
@sleepyfox @punissuer @amerpie There is a slightly better version, though, that provides a bit more context:
@amerpie
That’s me too 😭😢… I care above others and also for this planet we live on. But even that is a problem with some people irl for me

@amerpie Recently I was typing something like that but more extended. It ended with "is that too much to ask"

I didn't post it because i know the answer

@stux [steamed hams skinner] Yes!

@amerpie yup

I've taken to saying "I want you fed not dead" as a distillation of my driving ethos

@amerpie

Weird, ain't it?

You want health care for EVERYONE!? Are you insane? Some people just don't deserve health care

@amerpie yep, psychopaths hate that shit.

@amerpie

I could not love this enough. So many people delight in the official murdering of children, at a suitable distance. I think I'm now down to one friend.

@amerpie Decades ago I heard some guy say something along the lines of, "These kids believe the environment is some kind of moral issue or something." and me yelling, "Yes! Exactly!"
@amerpie I just want to go to my gay friend's wedding where we smoke pot and shoot guns.
@amerpie I second this motion!
@amerpie I'll bet you've also been called a radical.

@amerpie That made my day! In one of the discussions about "Trump is here to save democracy" I had to read stuff about free speech in Europe, and that it's because they care about that in the Netherlands.

I was so tempted to write back: "I care about our world we live in, this is why I insist on protecting the environment."

But this breaks it down even better!

@amerpie "what? How dare you care about other people...and the planet as well?
How dare you not to care about me making millions while ruining the earth?"

[People who get mad at you for caring about the planet and other people]

Qp @amerpie i almost wish this would make people mad. They just don't care
@amerpie
I want a sustainable planet for my children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren to live on in peace.
@amerpie Empathy is political now.
Should make it easier to form alliances, as it is a simple concept, in itself.

@amerpie @f4grx we lefties shouldn't be celebrating "how mad" our policy makes our opposition, imho.

We should continue, arguing, reasonably - fact-based, for the "greater good"!

(I'm glad, we're not celebrating this 2-party nonsense, here in Europe! …mostly)

@amerpie it really is this simple.

But saying it, wow does it seem to get on some peoples goats.....

@amerpie all the people, all the planet.
@amerpie @[email protected] What's so tragic about the whole thing is that so many people will not wake up due to compassion or empathy, only when they themselves are affected. You could call that way of living your life deplorable.
@amerpie Fucking radical leftist. How could you. No one cares about the real minority. The richest 1% 🤬😡
@amerpie I would like to add one thing: it is all about the cause, not ego.
@amerpie Sounds pretty woke to me!
@amerpie
In a suicidal society, It's literally radical.
