Well at first I was blindly excited to see the return of the GOAT, my FOAT, HBK. But I can't think of a worse way to do it now upon the drama of this Crown Jewel show. Especially if they end up moving the show to ALBANY. What a dumb ass move this is. At first I didn't care that nobody in the arena would be FREAKING out the way that I will when HBK starts running the ropes and taking bumps, but now with all the drama, I realize what a waste this is of a moment of a lifetime.

I dont know where you guys are coming from with all that. I'm American and care about America. Saudi Arabia can do what ever the hell they please. Do you guys honestly care about what goes on over there, if so why?

The same reason you care about what happens in America and not JUST what happens in your state. You just stop at America for some reason. Others don’t because that’s an arbitrary place to stop. It doesn’t make sense.

You’re not getting it.
Others are earthlings. They care about earth. Why do you drop down to America and then stop? If you’re going to narrow it down in the first place, why not go down to your region? Or your state? Or your city? |

Pretend you are talking to someone who only cares what happens in their state and fuck the rest of the country. They don’t get why you care what’s going on elsewhere in America. “ I’m an Ohioan. I care about Ohio. Makes perfect sense.”

It’s too big? So you made the decision that your country is just the right size to be able to care about? If someone came to you and said “I only care about the northwest United States.” Would you be like “That’s silly. You can care about more.” Then when they’re like “Yeah. Maybe I’ll care about all of North America” would you be like “Nah. Too much to be able to care about. Just this one country is the sweet spot.”?

So just to be clear, if your mother’s house was broken into in America and she was brutally raped for hours, that’d be bad. If someone else’s mother’s house was broken into in Mexico and she was brutally raped for hours, you don’t care because it’s not in America.
Is that correct? |

Follow up question: if your mother was on vacation in Mexico and her hotel room was broken into and she was brutally raped for hours, is that bad or would you not care?

Yeah that's bad and I'd tell my Mom not to go to Mexico. She'd never want to go to Mexico though. That's a complete different scenario though, had this journalist been of any relation to me I'd care about it yeah but that's not the case.

So when Natalee Holloway, an innocent American citizen who you don’t know, went to Aruba and was abducted and either sold into sex slavery or murdered back in 2005, was that bad or did you not care?

Never heard about it, was it bad yeah. She should have stayed in America it sounds like. I'm not saying Saudi Arabia is good but its not of my concern nor my position to judge their rulers.

REALLY trying to help you understand this. I know they’re all part of America. Just like all other countries are part of earth for us. It doesn’t make sense to you to narrow it down to your state, city, etc. because it’s all part of America. It doesn’t make sense to us to narrow it down to those things either... OR to our country. Because those are all part of our planet.

Okay. But why do you stop narrowing it down when you reach America? Why not narrow it down further? You have to understand by now that “My city, state, region, etc. are all part of America.” doesn’t answer that question.

Why doesn't it? I care about my city, state, region same as I do my country. I'm not narrowing anything down, I think that's you doing that. I just choose not to concern myself with stuff half way around the world.

I'm hung up on it because you said this early on the page...
Quote:
But now that you've said it's fair and even obvious that you're narrowing down what you care about... When I say you could narrow it down further and only care about your region or your state or your county or your city or your street, I'm pointing out that it's trivial that you narrow it down from the world to your country (which you just admitted you're doing) and then you just stop narrowing it down right there. When I ask you why you choose to narrow it down to that and then stop narrowing it down further and you say "Well those things are part of America", it makes no... sense. It doesn't answer the question. I'm well aware that those things are part of America. If you're going to narrow down what you care about, why not keep going past all of America and saying "I'm from (whatever state you live in) so I only care about what's going on in that state"? |

Well, your ancestors at some point making the decision to move to this specific part of the world and your parents not moving to another country before you were born is the reason you were born in America. But let's not go off on THAT path.

You choose to only care about stuff in your country. You're literally narrowing down what you care about to things happening in your country. You can't be serious when you say "I'm not narrowing anything down". That's the entire discussion.

And the reason "They're all part of America" doesn't answer the question is the same reason the following conversation doesn't make sense:
"I'll only date women who own 17 or fewer pairs of shoes." "That seems like and oddly arbitrary number. Why 17 specifically? Why not 13 pairs of shoes? Or 9? Or 4?" "Well 13, 9 and 4 are all fewer 17." "I know but I'm saying 17 pairs of shoes seems like an arbitrary number of shoes to care about a woman having. Why 17 and why not narrow it down to, say 12? Or 6?" "12 and 6 are fewer than 17." "... I know that. That doesn't answer my question." "Why doesn't it?" |

Do you honestly follow everything that goes on in the world? Hell I don't even follow everything that goes on in America but those things are closer to home. I just don't see any reason to concern myself with foreign affairs. You're the one that started with the narrowing down of stuff down to states and regions and such not me, I'm just a normal American that cares about America like most others.

Secondly, yes. I brought up the phrasing of "narrowing down" things. I don't know why that's so relevant. You are narrowing down what you care about to your country. You've admitted that. You can't possibly say you aren't at this point. Seriously. There's no level of misunderstanding that I can possibly imagine where you can say you only care about stuff that happens in your country but you're not narrowing down what you care about to a specific part of the world. Can we at least get past this roadblock? I'm trying to have a nice conversation here but if you can't agree that you're narrowing down what you care about from the world to your own country then... My God... I don't even know where to go from here. |

Let’s just take this to it’s logical extreme. Simple Fan, was the Holocaust bad or is that something you don’t care about it because it happened halfway around the world to non-Americans?
