Ah yes, the classic "you aren't currently hanging from the cross, so there's no reason to talk about ways the world could be better" argument. It's so intellect

Ah yes, the classic "you aren't currently hanging from the cross, so there's no reason to talk about ways the world could be better" argument. It's so intellectually lazy. Why not say what you actually mean: "I like the way things are, I don't care that other people are mistreated, and I wish everybody would shut up about it already".

North Korea being a very clear example of what systemic harm looks like, to the point of people starving to death because the societal systems are designed to keep the population in a state of near starvation and desparation.

- OldManRyan 3y agoA bad critique of the term. Systemic harm isn't binary.
