Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content.

7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link.

Lol and you made it into a personal attack. Whatever is going on here is really on you and not the person you just went ad hominem on.
Ooh… this one is personal, as I’m a Mac user. My personal favorite Mac app for whatever the hell this article is talking about is not listed.
Should I blame the developers of the app, the purchasers?
I mean the developers shoulda made an app good enough to make this list, but the purchasers… oh lord… the purchasers…
They should’ve known better, right?
But what about the advertises? Maybe the advisers hold the sole responsibility for my misfortune.
Should I blame the advertisers?
Help me judgmental one, you’re my only hope.
You’re openly blaming people who have lost their homes twice. That’s a pure lack of humanity on your part.
This isn’t personal for me. I’m just calling you on having complete disregard for a person who’s lost everything twice.
You blamed them? Who the hell does that?
Grow up.
Your argument: people should be able to do whatever they want and the consequences are not on them. Any thought that their decision making lead them to this a SECOND time is apparently offensive.
You should probably do some introspection and try to figure out why the opinions of two random people can cause you to rage so hard. This entire discourse is of you projecting your own personal issues. So I will deflect: no, you should grow up.
People have homes, people build communities, people build families. Those things are not easy for some people to live without.
If you have an easy time walking away from those things, especially after you’ve lost everything, twice, then good for you. You truly have the ability only care for yourself & you’ll go far on your own
You can’t reduce human life down to a single decision & if you continue judging everyone so harshly for making a decision you wouldn’t, you’re going to run out of people to judge faster then you’d expect.
Take care of yourself friend. Your black & white outlook on the human decision making capacity is pretty wild. You should write up a paper on it.
Edit: and for the record, my argument was never that people get to do what they want. Of course they don’t.
My argument was & still is, this a far more complicated situation than you’re willing to acknowledge. Additionally, your willingness to shit on those involved from a distance & reduce them to “idiots” tells me every thing I need to know about who you are as a person.
I have never used the word "idiot", you did. I don't know if you're fully in contact with reality at this point.
No, you just blamed someone who has lost their life’s work to tragedy. Twice.
I was just trying to be a bit more civil while rehashing your repeated disgust for strangers.
No, you came out to project your own past traumas on other people.
Hey, I guess I’m trauma projecting here again, but don’t you think the people who ordered the packages are to blame here? Check out this story.
I could really use your input on this one. If someone orders a package, should t they expect it to be stolen?
I mean, I’m following your logic here. The person ordered a package & packages get stolen all the time… so the package ordered should a known right?
I mean… you have to blame the person that ordered the package here right? There’s no way it’s not the purchasers fault right?
Am I doing this right?
No my friend. I just stood up for basic human decency.
You came out to shit on strangers. I’ve got no patience for that.
Come on Pal? Where you at? You ready to blame some Filipinos for living on an island in the pacific rim?
They’re just ripe for your type of awfulness and judgement!!
Go ahead bud, call them a slur. I know you want to.
