I feel good inside when I help people in need the people I’ve helped it never entered my mind that I shouldn’t because they wouldn’t give two shits about me if they knew about me.
I understand you may feel this way but this is not the way to achieve our goals.
When did helping others determine who you should or shouldn’t just because of normies general view on certain topics.
Don’t get me wrong though there’s lots of things I have grown to hate about the western world and it’s society.
If person needed help but I knew they belonged to a group of people that I don’t like then it would have entered my mind but I still think I would try to help may not be as helpful as I could have been if you know what I mean.

I share the same views with you on this showing humanity and kindness goes along way and I like when you connect with people when you do charity.

As a MAP?? :o :lol:

Ok, I know. You're keeping it real, speaking your mind without putting a pretty bow on it :P

So I'll try to give an honest response, too. I would want to do the good deed... Although, I've seen more and more examples of people getting in trouble for trying to do that good deed. Maybe they step in to break up an altercation, and someone gets hurt, so the do-gooder ends up in a hospital or in jail. In reality, I'm not sure what I would do, but it would honestly probably be closest to what Condemned said:

I like this, Rooster!

BLue, you are killing me! :lol: :lol:
But nah, think of it this way: There's a good chance that random adult you help is the mother or the brother or uncle of a MAP. I mean, there could be a MAP that really relies on that person, otherwise they would be alone. So by helping that relative, you could be really helping a MAP in need, who depends on that adult.

Oh, and what about this: You save an normie's life. They later learn you are a MAP. So they either change their opinions on MAPs, or... they live out the rest of their life tortured by severe cognitive dissonance of having been rescued by the very thing they despise the most. How you gonna pass up an opportunity like that?! :P

I would help an adult, I'm not sure I'd help a child.

The reason is that I instinctively want to help others in need, that's why I volunteer and contribute to charities, it's because I want to help others however I can. But when it comes to children, anything I do to help would be twisted into something else. If I saw a child drowning and went to help them then I'd be accused of trying to drown a kid. If I saw a child lost and went to help then I'd be accused of somehow being responsible for their situation. So while my instinct would be to help, I think my logic circuit would force me to walk away.
