Your argument is that
>[the people in the article] would quite literally rather die a slow painful death than work and support themselves
And that argument is stupid. I don't care if you call yourself a conservative, people will call you out if you say something stupid. My point wasn't that you should be a liberal, my point is that you're smart enough to know better.
You keep saying these people would rather have AIDS than work. You're naive for thinking that they have the option to work; they would rather have AIDS than starve in a gutter.

Calling my argument stupid in such a situation would be a lack of your ability to check your own 'sociology' privilege.
- lmartel 13y agoAll I'm saying is that you should think about what's more likely--that people would rather get AIDS than work, or that work isn't always easy/possible to find.
