    You said that I participated in “Bringing that to fruition” not in “letting that happen.”

    “Participating in letting something happen” is a very odd turn of phrase. The definition of participate (per google) is, “take part in an action or endeavour.” If what you’re doing is not taking part in an action, then you aren’t participating, by definition.

    If someone on the other side of the world starves to death, are you a participant in that?

      We’re comparing voting, which I can do, to helping someone I don’t know exists on the other side of the world?

      Thanks for the thread bud. Plenty here for people to see your thought process. It sucks by the way.

        There’s information about world hunger available on the web, I don’t see how choosing not to be informed about it absolves you of responsibility.
