The earth map is too small, resources are ending, even sand for concrete making is lacking

Nuclear extinction is more likely now than in cold war

Shitposting this hard. :lol:

But for real.

Stop caring about other people's lives, let people rot away if they want to, and those who want to change will go out of there way to do it.

If you can pay for it who cares? it's not like you're harming anyone but yourself by sitting on your ass all day.

If you pay for this by gift from Papa Gubs or get fat from this sitting, you are leech on public service which does harm some men.

Ah another one of those fear mongering videos with old people as the target audience.

Let people do what they want to do. I personally find no enjoyment in kicking a ball around, my fun comes from, say, DotA. Who are you to say my way of having fun is wrong?

I do NOT agree with leeching off of public services and welfare, it's disgusting, and anyone who does this deserves to be put in the gulags

As long as you're working and you have the money to spend on recreational things, WITHOUT putting yourself in a situation where you need to use welfare, I say go for it.

No one really thinks about the logic behind these statements but I'd like to point out that any normal 9-5 worker accounts for "entertainment" in their budget, so why should being poor or receiving government funding deny you the right to have fun once in awhile?

I always hear people saying things like "if you're on welfare you shouldn't be buying beer" but who are we to say someone shouldn't be allowed to enjoy themselves sometimes because they receive government funding? Because they are poor? Yes there are people who blatantly abuse these programs but I don't think it's individuals and families that are occasionally going out for dinner together with some of their welfare cheque.

Because some other men labor for you to be alive, you are not allowed this fun.

These people can buy beer after they have job and do not suckle teat of Papa Gubs for sustenance.

Many people that receive welfare still work full time jobs but aren't paid enough to feed themselves and their family or pay for medication or pay for child care or pay for schooling, etc.
