not hyperbole, progressives actually believe it is compassionate to allow rampant theft and drug use on the streets (as reparations for past oppression of the lower class). see Seth Rogan’s tweets about how having his car broken into 15 times in LA is just part of daily life in a wonderful city
- cymian 5y agoIt has nothing to do with compassion and everything to do with raising their social status in front of their peers (e.g. look at me I'm so wealthy/powerful I can live in place with theft etc. and it doesn't even effect me, i.e. a form of "peackocking"). Also a lot of virtue signaling - more important when you are materially well of but realistically can never enter the ranks of the super-rich. Can't compete by buying a mega-yacht but can compete (for social status) by being ever more "virtuous".
