> people should pay for playing
I’m sorry, what? There are two ways I can interpret what you wrote. “Should pay” as in the people who play sports should buy their own concussion medicine. Which is okay I guess? But nobody talked about financing.
Which makes me think you mean “should pay” as in people who choose to partake in sports should suffer harm (as in pay the metaphorical “price”). Is that how you mean it? Because that sounds extremely cruel and twisted morality. There is nothing “should” about that. That makes it sound as if these people deserve the harm even if we could prevent it.
- anonzzzies 3y agoNo that's not how I mean it, sorry. I mean if you put yourself in danger, society shouldn't necessarily pay. Sports is healthy if it's not a sport that endangers your body and that should be rewarded; sports that are proven to give you multiple injuries (concussions etc) are not very different from bad addictions. It's your choice/responsibility, not 'ours'. But no I definitely didn't mean the tail end. Sorry if you read that into it; I would never say that.
- krisoft 3y agoThank you for the clarification, and I'm sorry for misunderstanding it. In that case I agree with you.
