    You entirely derailed the topic by being dismissive of about 350 million people and just saying you don’t give a fuck about them.

    Thats not relevant or productive to attempting to seriously discuss broad social dynamics, at all, whatsoever.

    And now you’re just openly insulting me directly and personally, and you’re now acting as if you are an authority figure who can direct the flow of this conversation.

    You seem to have a bit of an anti-American/anti-homeless chip on your shoulder, and I don’t much care for the sociopath vibes you’re giving me, so I’ll be blocking you now.
