Every day you decide not to donate a fraction of your income to medicine in Africa. How many deaths are you responsible for?

[ikrenji]

having the power to destroy a government agency that provides aid and actually going through with it is not morally equal to not donating a few dollars of your income

1 - the moral calculus is different if you were already doing so and then suddenly shut it off

2 - i was happy with the arrangement of the government doing it on my behalf, and in doing so making the united states stronger and have allies around the world

3 - elon musk did this illegally

4 - elon musk also caused additional deaths by virtue of supporting trump, rfk, and these other lunatics which he was definitely affirmatively a part of doing

You are. We are. With our powers, and money is one of them, comes responsibility. We can decide how and if you respond, but it's still ours.
