30. Ah, the good ol' DU "They have money so fuck 'em" bullshit.
Edited on Mon Apr-16-07 09:56 AM by Rabrrrrrr
Yeah, my sympathy ends once someone's bank account hits a certain level.

:eyes:

So tell me, then, what is the money level at which liberals cease to have sympathy, empathy, or care for someone's suffering? And there is some kind of rubric that also includes the type of suffering? That is, do we tell anyone who earns $100K a year to go fuck themselves unless they have lung cancer, but someone who earns $50K gets a pass on the liberal "fuck you" if they have lung cancer OR lose a limb due to diabetes OR are accused of rape wrongly? Or is the line for sympathy for false rape accusations down at the $15K a year level?

I also need to know race fits into this - is the above only for white people? Do African-Americans get to earn twice as much because we liberals have to tell 'em to go fuck themselves? Three times as much? What is the Liberal-Based Income Modifier for Hispanics? Illegal immigrants?

How does gender fit in? I mean, if you have a disabled African American Southern woman falsely accused of rape, is our sympathy level at the $750K a year level?

Please inform us how your system works, because I find it constantly confusing how our hatred is supposed to be doled out based on a person' income/worth. And please, make it clear.

Thanks!
