This is a depressing comment.
If there are people who would go out of their way to snail-mail an insult to an unwell and unfortunate target, then there is far less hope for the human race than I realized.
Alternatively, if you're suggesting that someone is so entrenched in their principles that when they need comfort or compassion, they won't appreciate a gesture of goodwill for what it is because they don't agree with the beliefs of the well-wisher, then, well, same thing.
Where's the assumption of good faith? Or at least hope for it?
Thanks for trying to make the world better, OP.
- krapp 13y agooh, people would go out of their way to do a lot worse just because they have an address to focus on...
- thetrb 13y agoWhy do you think most online communities have rules against posting real addresses? Because exactly these kind of things happen.
- chavesn 13y agoOnline communities are sources of passion, emotion, argument, conflict. There's a big difference between that and knowing basically nothing about a person other than that they're in a hospital and having a birthday.
