Trying to argue with conservatives.

All that they’re great at is detouring, distancing, playing down, doubling-tripling down, disassociating, strawmen and more illogical fallacies. They can’t take up an honest debate unless there are rules in place that gives them any outs from being pressed when confronted with questions they can’t give truthful answers to.

    who determines what helps people and harms them?

    them, or you?

    because a lot of ‘help’ actually does harm. and vice versa

    what if helping another person comes at harm to you? there is a reason bystanders are not suppose to run into burning buildings or saving drowning people… because the most likely outcome is they themselves will also burn/drown. professionals who are trained to rescue people are a different story.

      Fine, but it’s pretty obvious that if you take money away from people that have been reliant on it not to starve, you’re going to have people starving.
