    Hey, if you change your world outlook because of a headline, that’s on you. Seems weak to me. I like to think for myself. But you do you.

      If someone picks up a gun and accidentally shoots you in the foot, what are you going to say? “I’m not an idiot. I know gun safety. If you shoot me in the foot, that’s your problem, not mine.”

        Seeing a fucking headline online and being shot in the foot are two different things. Again, if you are week enough to make your choices based on random headlines without doing your own research, that’s on you.

        Maybe people should toughen up and not be sheeple. :)

          Yeah, they’re two different things. The commonality is one person’s actions negatively affecting other people. As the party that’s being negatively affected, it makes no sense to say that it’s not your problem just because you’re not the cause of the problem. Being negatively affected by it makes it your problem.

            Except you can choose not to be a sheep and blindly let a internet headline make your choices for you. LMAO

              I can choose for myself. You can choose for yourself. We cannot choose for other people.

                Correct. And those people can choose for themselves, just like you and I do. So you can’t blame me or some article writer for what other people think. They can think for themselves without you having to hold their hand and shelter them from bad things.
