Hold on, let me elaborate on what I was saying. You aren't obligated to care about other people but at the same time you should make sure that whatever it is you are doing, it doesn't affect anyone else.

I wouldn't care

save him to suffer or let him die now

variables are a very powerful thing and I love them

Well you see thats my point

let him die

That’s extreme too. Just little things like letting someone who can barely walk sit down in a train while you stand.

You are making it a variable situation

I'm stating it as a general rule.

tomorrow is national do something nice day

Honestly I don't know how to feel about all of this. It's hard to take a universal stance on something that's very context sensitive.

Or talking to your friend when they’re going through rough patch of life.

Because of the enviroment I'm in.

tomorrow is national do something nice day

It’s not really. Just act like a decent person. Don’t cause others suffering or harm just because it benefits you.

@August This.

My opinion might change tomorrow, a few years from now, when I move, when I'm old

No I mean it’s not context sensitive

oh lol

well my point was they legit ignore a dying child when nothing is at stake for helping them. while they all work together to save a cow

No I'm pretty sure it is.

Human children > Cows.

poor cow

The point is just because it furthers your cause, doesn’t mean you should do it. Especially if the road to your happiness is paved with the people you’ve let suffer.

if your car was as stake for helping that child you would already be fore less scummy than they are

They ignore the child because that's the enviroment in that country.

why does the cow's life hold less value than a child's?

if you choose to ignore that child aswell

their lives are short enough as it is

how young is the child

i see what point you are trying to make but im not going to answer that because you already know why that child holds more value

Why is absolutely anything worth any form of value if everything has a time limit?

if you cant see it then im not waisting my time

guess what tomorrow is

See it’s that nihilistic point of view that leads to cruelty.

gues

s

Except it doesn't

“I mean I could pay my workers minimum wage so they can afford food and maybe even give them healthcare so they can be healthy. But instead I’ll pay them a few cents an hour and replace them when they die”

When it comes to philosophy I'm a weird combination between Objectivism, Humanism, and Existentialism.

Yeah
