Are you more angry at the people trying to escape the crazy system than you are at the system that drove them out?
Is it a contest? Can’t you be angry at both the system and people endangering their children and that is enough?
Do you get mad at rabbits that run away from dogs and into the line of fire of the hunter?
Humans are not rabbits. What a terrible analogy. I get mad at any human that intentionally endangers their child. I don’t know why you don’t object to child abuse.
The adult who dragged a kid along was trying to create her own system, which undeniably isolated him, subjected him to suffering, and killed him, so yeah I’m angry at that on his behalf.
She was afraid, ignorant, and uneducated. How do you think she got that way?
Well she’s from Colorado springs so I’m going to guess a steady diet of conservative propaganda…
Yes, because they died in an incredibly predictable way by going out unprepared and they brought a kid to die with them.
Because they were idiots who didn’t realize how they would definitely die in nature without society to protect them.
The same system that provides antibiotics? Have you ever grown food? It’s a lot harder than buying it at the store, even when you include the time spent working at a minimum wage job.
Nature is brutal and unforgiving, these idiots did not begin to respect it.
They could never have survived without society to care for them, the proof is that they didn’t.
The system that provides soap, food, internet, cops, homelessness, poverty, fentanyl, prisons, slavery, inequality, racism, sex discrimination, poor education, and horrendous working conditions.
They were ignorant about nature the same way you seem to be ignorant about society. Both of you risk your lives on a daily basis dealing with SYSTEMS you don’t understand.
It’s just the luck of the draw that you can sit there in high judgement and talk mad shit.
Nature provides less, most of us probably wouldn’t make it through childhood.
Nobody drove them out. This was a decision she made on her own accord and by her own free will.
Her free will to run away from a system she perceived as a threat. Are you saying that you’ve been totally comfortable the last 4 years and never once considered the collapse of the system being a threat to your loved ones?
I think there are a lot of threats in the world, I think climate change might also be a threat.
I don’t stake myself out in the antarctic in response.
Are you saying that you’ve been totally comfortable the last 4 years and never once considered the collapse of the system being a threat to your loved ones?
Of course I’m not saying that. But I never once thought to myself “Know what would make this situation better? Starving myself and my family in the cold wilderness that none of us are prepared to endure.”
That thought was something she considered and acted upon. It’s not your fault for having such thoughts, but acting on them is always your fault. Nobody told her “You need to take your family into the mountains, or else”. She did that to herself.
How would they prepare for economic collapse and the rise of fascism? They took a risk, but they might have just accelerated the inevitable.
They didn’t take a risk. Taking a risk means preparing for situations and dealing with them as they come up, and what happens happens. This lady prepared nothing. This is more like resting in the shade of the anvil suspended by twine in a Bugs Bunny cartoon. She walked out into the woods to die and just didn’t know it. It’s an awful story, she obviously didn’t feel she had options, but a little bit of reading or video would show a person very quickly that they needed more preparation than the deceased put in to have any hope it surviving an alpine winter.
Edit: grammar
There is no “system” that drove them out. This was a choice they made. A bad one.
