You don't know why people are shocked that the system they pay into for healthcare chooses not to save them? You're not shocked that we choose to kill babies?
I do but it's just how capitalism work, maybe people should think about adopting other economic system instead of complaining about unfairness, the problem it's if they have the chance they will do the same.
Complaining about how the system isn't fair and at the same time push the "greatness of capitalism" it's just a basic contradiction.
I think you'll find if you change your framing, we are mostly agreeing with you.
Or in other words, people aren't down voting your message, they're down voting your delivery.
Just my opinion. Many here dislike capitalism, but they dislike callous disregard for tone more. Humans are funny like that.
I am not talking about points. I think that you have misinterpreted my message.
I am talking about evangelizing something you are passionate about effectively. Points are one representation of your effectiveness. If you want people to see things your way, at some point this will become important to you.
For now, I'm not sure now is the time for you to think about this. Good luck.
Good luck!! 👍✌️
