Title: I just fasted for 30 hours.
Post by: Squirtlejazz on February 23, 2008, 05:30:20 PM
To raise money for starving children.

Did you know that 29,000 children die every day from hunger related causes?
Did you know that 1.6 Billion people live on less than one dollar a day?
Well now you do.

You were born without the ability to support yourself. Why didn't nature take you out?

a continent of people given rice they can't even boil and apparently haven't learned to migrate over these thousands of years like the rest of humanity

should i be led to assume they'll someday create some ideal society or just get deeper in aids and dust

As for starving people outside of Africa, they have far greater chances of someday building up a good base for survival.

And I wonder how many of the 29,000 dying per day are outside of Africa; I'm willing to get a nice amount.   And I'd say a majority of the 1.6 billion mentioned are also outside of Africa.

But when you consider that only about 5 people in Africa can buy or make their own meal, they make up a huge chunk.

Current world resources cannot sustain the entire population living close to first world standards, as such, social and economic evolution (human natural selection) does it's thing. Darwinism to the fullest..

hi elitist

Some have to die when it is time for them to die; America, the current power, is too caught up in its own shit to even help Africa. It's not considered a profitable cause. Humans shouldn't be secluded as a designated population that "has to die off", it's human nature to help everyone as much as possible, unless they are a threat or enemy, and they're not.

That's great.

I ate some delicious chicken and doritos.

There have been times, und undoubtedly wil be win the future, where I've had to deal with 5 packages of ramen for a week. I guess it could be worse, but for me that is starving. Because of times like that, I would never give up food that's handed to me.

Save me tears and sentimental shit. This planet cannot sustain our current and ever expanding population with first world living standards. Unless you want to go live on the moon, some have to die. Simple truth, it is in fact unnatural to artificially help everyone survive, in nature, most die. There needs to be a balance, call me "elitist" all you want, at least I'm a realist.

Survival of those in our immediate area and of our social class is the most important thing of pretty much all social animals, aside from those ones that simply desire their personal survival.

It has nothing to do with them being black or anything; it's all about them living in an area that clearly can't sustain human life, yet we waste resources to support them and extend the suffering. If it wasn't for our "ethics," they'd be left to die and the strongest would survive. Africa can support life, but we're forcing too many too survive on too little. Let the weakest die and then more food can be distributed and produced by those capable of survival.
