Good God woman, take a midol or stfu! What is with you wishing death or illness on these folks?
They wouldn’t understand the implications of what they were saying unless it involved them. I’m trying to put them in stricken people’s shoes, they lack basic empathy for understanding what it must be like to be down and helpless, whether one is a victim or one is a good samaritan. I have to use such examples to make them think it out, they wouldn’t be able to understand otherwise. They don’t understand human nature and the inherent incentives it contains. There shouldn’t be a bigger incentive to walk over a dying person than there should be to try to help them, no matter how educated or uneducated they are. The negative incentives in the system now, which provide positive incentives to just walk away, are a bad thing, and placing them in the shoes of the victim is the only possible way to help them understand. They can’t do it on their own, they don’t have that kind of human empathy.
