I've never seen tankies and libs ever so united in celebration.

We talk about being able to stop paying things as a service in it's own right lol.

There's this whole anthropological theory that people's from regions that have less resources resort to pillaging as means to survive; after many generations they become so good at it that they just simply continued to do it.

On the flip side, you have countries that have it all, in particular Asian and American countries, that never developed such a need because resources were abundant.

Why argue in bad faith? Whether or not I spend every waking moment of my life preventing child abuse, I would still do more than god has when it comes to a ratio of how much impact I have v.s. how much impact I could have. My life is finite. The lives of deities are not.

I can only prevent one lifetimes worth of child abuse at most. God can stop child abuse from happening. And from that alone, I am fundamentally doing more to prevent child abuse per second than any god is.

And if you really want to go down that argument, there's only so much I can do. But when it happens right in front of me, I step in. I donate to charitable causes to can make much more of a difference that I could alone, converting wealth from my labor into action. But fundamentally, I also need rest and relaxation. I am only human.

But gods don't have such limitation. And yet, here we are.

Literally it just boils down to: If given the option to prevent child abuse from ever happening by simply pushing a button, I would smack the button in an instant. Gods can't even do that.

As someone who's stopped actual child SA, I have done everything in my power to stop such things from occuring.

Gods are omnipotent, and yet they refuse to do what I have done within my abilities 100% of the time.

So what now?

How would this even be implemented? What's to prevent one user from generating massive amounts of karma on their own instance?
