This line "you care because you responded" is so tired and obtuse. Shitty arguers on the Internet need a new one. My original comment got over 50 upvotes. Because people understand how fucked up it is that the common person is suffering. Because yes, working is suffering. Then along your dumb ass comes acting like suffering isn't real unless it is worse than [whatever you define]. Can't say the same for you about being a decent person because either you want to treat others shitty or you've got something mentally going on that prevents you from seeing things clearly.

the common person is suffering and of course that's fucked up. i didn't say your suffering wasn't real, i totally agree that working longer is suffering.

you're totally right that i wasn't seeing things clearly, i was emotional because of all the horrible shit going on, and seeing someone complain about not getting to retire early was just... very painful to read.

as i mentioned before, i regret my original message, and i've apologised for it. i should have been more compassionate and sympathetic.

i hope you do get to retire early.
