Look, I’m not a fucking broker or a hustler, okay? I don’t care that you keep running around telling me or others to go waste our time and money to put into markets that can be incredibly unpredictable. It is all about luck, chance and risk. Things most wouldn’t want to put themselves on the line over even if they were down next to nothing. They’d rather buy lottery tickets.

    So what you’re saying is you just don’t give a fuck about other people? That’s what political correctness is trying to do is show some empathy from those that historically haven’t gotten much.

    To your point, it does go overboard many times when it probably doesn’t need to. For example, LatinX vs Latino and/or Latina.

      I think you didn’t understand my answer. Let me give you an example. If I say “I like oranges more than apples”, normal people will think “ok, this guy likes oranges more than apples”. But modern, progressive people who care about political correctness will call me applefobic.

      People got too sensitive growing in the secure bubbles and when exposed to a real world with a real science, statistics and opinions get offended over nothing.

        I understood your point. It is covered in my “go overboard” part. I agree that people not supporting something doesn’t mean that you’re always something-phobic.

        A phobia is an extreme or irrational fear and just because you don’t like something doesn’t mean it’s always irrational. Perhaps misguided or misjudged, sure but not always irrational.
