That's the crux of it to me as well. Normalizing that you will kill your way through a system if it ends up failing you just greenlights chaos and detorioration of your institutions. I don't think the people cheering right now have any leg to stand on against the pro-lifer, vegan, or open-borders supporter who wants to take matters into their own hands to what they see as a deeply immoral system. Because you set the rules that if you perceive a system to be failing you and that the attempts to reform it aren't good enough, you start blasting.


I could at least understand it, if there were some kind of consistent ethical foundation. But often times, they contradict what they supposedly hold dear. If their ethic is class struggle, in this instance, then how does it follow, when the murderer was a rich kid, who murdered a CEO over a claim he never filed? Is this "class struggle" now between the rich kid is less rich than the CEO? Why should the CEO pay for something that was never even agreed too? And what of the working class individual who may be affected if their insurance plan pulls out because of that?

Oh and lastly, and I didn't mention this on the thread, I'm not entirely convinced the 1st order consequences even pan out. Their argument goes this will make them scared to have as high a claim denial rate. But another way I can see this going is, fewer people are willing to be a health insurance CEO now that everyone cheered when one got assasinated, the pool of capable picks shrink, a more incompetent person gets in charge, they are unable to negotiate prices with healthcare providers as effectively, their costs go up, and they pass that cost along to consumers in the form of higher premiums or more denial rates


I don't think they pan out, either. I don't think people grasp the role economic incentives play in the production of any service. There's certainly low incentive to produce when everyone hates you and wants you dead for providing said service. Then there's the inevitable fact that someone will get denied at some point, since, no insurance plan can or should pay for everything. People like to pretend that these principles do not apply to healthcare, and that there's a fixed number that can be delivered to everyone equally which is obviously not the case.

Hey, I was reading through your posts in the CEO thread, and I found them quite interesting. It seems almost impossible to have a rational discussion on subjects like this, as people's emotions tend to cloud their judgement. And maybe that's not even their fault, but just human nature, when you see a loved one struggling. However, I think you were correct on a some things. Even though it seems anyone who even suggests the possibility of more market competition being the answer is cast aside, even though I think it's the correct answer. I think if a lot of the people who are crying folly right now actually got their way, it would be much worse than it is now.

I can imagine, haha. I bet it was a true gladiator's arena - complete with sand, blood and roaring lions.

You are very welcome, Auron :-). Thank you very much! Please do not apologise, I know that you have a lot on your plate right now. Good luck getting back on the right tracks.

Happy New Year :3 hopefully, the best out of all the previous ones! With lots of things that make you happy rather than sad :) and inner peace that will always inspire you.
Meusnier Dec 31, 2023 10:12 PM
Happy New Year! I wish you lots of academic accomplishments and to see some of your dreams come true.

You will celebrate New Year's Eve abroad for the first time huh :D

I've heard of Valentyne Stories Necromancy as well actually, through another Western BL VN called Night/Shade. They promoted each other on twitter at one point iirc, so you might've heard the other. It's a cyberpunk-styled romance-thriller hybrid to my understanding. I haven't seen the demo yet, but I just might today along with yours. It has a cool trailer as well.

I finally played this one and enjoyed it quite a bit, more than I expected to :) it also had a pretty cool "chain reaction" and made me burst into tears of joy because I just randomly remembered how many great treasured experiences I had with visual novels before, BL or otherwise, and I guess it somehow made all those deeply intimate moments resurface :) for whatever reason. So, I just wanted to thank you for mentioning it back in the day :3 it's always nice to encounter something that manages to touch you on a deeper level, and if you never mentioned it, then who knows if I'd have ever had the pleasure of experiencing what I did!
-YaoiBoy- May 27, 2023 1:51 PM
Oh, congratulations :p never been abroad myself, so it does sound pretty exciting :) well, I wish you a great first experience then, wherever it'll be! And for life to become gradually easier afterwards :)
Everything has been going as well as it can be, considering the unfortunate circumstances, and yes, the last chapter of Given was released a few months ago :) quite unexpectedly for many people, it seems. I guess I was lucky that I'd only started reading it this year :p just in time for the finale. I hope you'll like it all the way through as well.

Happy birthday! May your gift be given in 6 days!

Happy Birthday :3 I hope you're having a good time with whatever keeps you occupied these days, especially today, and I wish you a lot of fulfilling and inspiring experiences in the future :)

Guchiry i got into last year, and i love the artstyle of the vid almost reminds me of danganronpa.
It’s time to ditch the text file.
