mooching

Interesting choice of words, when discussing people with mental health issues.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Bro, I have a limited amount of money, and plenty of my own problems. You can figure out your own shit.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 2 days ago

Trust me. The two cents of your taxes that go to help you neighbors isn't making your debt worse.

Now the billions going to the already rich...

Not if you stand between me and a functioning society, stonewalling every attempt af infrastructure or efficient services. Not if I need to pay for your imperial bullshit wars and your fucking death squads to disapoear my neighbors loudly at the hour of fuck-you AM and your fucking cops to gas and beat my friends. Not if I have to pay for uour fuvking prisons.

If im paying for all that, you're paying for my fucking food stamps.

Fuck your debt, you moocher piece of shit. You owe me.

Edit: you could also just get the fuck out. Just fuck off. Get the fuck out, we clearly don't want to run things the same, we don't need to be in the same country, we're both in border states. You could just fuck off. We'd let you. We don't fucking want you here. Just get the fuck out. That woukd also be pretty cool.

Read up a couple or three comments, and you'll see the word "mooching."

That's what I was replying to, and as I have very little too mooch, fuck off.

I haven't known any shut ins that would qualify as having mental heath issues. Most of the people I know who never leave their house just don't want to have a job. They don't have any problems leaving the house or dealing with people they just don't want to work or support themselves. Of course instances where they physically can't leave their house because of mental health issues and trauma are different, but again that's never been my experience when dealing with people like that and I've known a lot of people who would be called "shut ins".

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

So 100% of the ones you know have no problems leaving the house and functioning?

That doesnt sound like a very fair sample

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

I did say that's just been my experience and I did say that people with legitimate problems are different. The cases I've seen are spouses or partners who don't work but their partner has to do the work of two people or kids living with their parents well into their 40s and don't ever try to support themselves. I've known some people who bounce from couch to couch until the person they're staying with get's sick of them never contributing and kicks them out. Sometimes they do eventually become self sufficient and sometimes they find someone who's willing to support them and marry them never having to lift a finger. I doubt I'd ever be in the position to meet a real shut in who can't leave their house because they legitimate problems or have been traumatized so this has just been my experience.

Or just the people with basic deductive abilities.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Are they seeking help for it? If not, sounds like mooching to me.

[–] [email protected] 38 points 2 days ago (3 children)

“You’ve got a problem that makes it difficult for you to seek help for it. Fucking mooch.”

Another .world lib strikes again

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 days ago (1 children)

So how do you propose the problem gets solved? It's unlikely someone who does not want to change will.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Social welfare checks. These are solved problems.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago

lib

u wot m8

I agree with you point but wtf does that even mean

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago

So what do you propose? We just let them be and allow them to suffer?
