In my eyes that's just being a hypocrite.

You're either following the rules completely or you're cherry picking and a hypocrite.

That can absolutely be true, but the context here is just the comic where some guys got a "win" and totally crushed a person we don't know anything about.

My initial comment was replying to someone saying it's not worth it because of how difficult it can be with no payout. I just wanted to remind them that the outcome can be really bad for some people.

On a related topic: my mother isn't religious, but she believes in "karma" and "reiki healing," all that new age b.s. It helps her cope with life and i'd never want to take that from her just because it isnt real unless she starts using that as a way to cure cancer or something that will actually hurt her.
