Do you feel bad if someone ods on heroin and dies? Do you feel bad if someone is sold laced product and ods and dies?
sure, both. It's sad to me that someone's life is that shitty that they turned to heroin.
I do not feel.sympathy at all for someone who ods on heroin that is as intended. I know a ton of sad stories regarding it and I know a ton of shitty people in regards. I view them all the same.
On the other hand, I feel sympathy that they were duped when they od due to laced product. And, I feel the seller is a murderer.
Basically I have some kind of subconscious sympathy formula that weighs the morality of the person vs. whatever happened to them. I don't think heroin users are necessarily bad people, so I think it is tragic that they were unable to get help before they died.
also if the dumb gif teen we were talking about to start all of this were to be actually publically doxxed by CNN and then someone used that info and murdered him, I would feel bad because that's so bad compared to posting some dumb "Jews control the media" memes or whatever.
there are complex sympathy calculations going on here
