It's just some old dope that got mad at a trendy probably "woke" establishment asking him if he had apple pay and then using homeless people and "charity" to justify him being mad at businesses doing what they want.
most sensible people would just download Apple Pay and not have to worry about it anymore.
You can’t truly call yourself peaceful unless you are capable of violence. If you’re not capable of violence, you’re not peaceful. You’re harmless.

Not if you buy him or her a burger.
so, your gripe about not having cash to give out doesn't matter. use your debit card to buy him or her a burger. problem solved.

I said she was correct on both points because acts of charity aren’t sick and these are people not programs.
Nobody said they were though Chryses. I said using acts of "charity" like giving your spare change to a homeless person after supporting candidates that vote against things that would actually help them, like universal healthcare is sick.
You're sick, you're a sick evil bitch.

Different people bring different heritages to the conversation.
You bring bullshit, obfuscation and endless new accounts to agree with yourself.
Quote by Chryses
While I disagree with you about your assessment of me, everyone is entitled to their opinion.
Oh so you are pro universal healthcare now? That is something that would actually help the homeless. In fact, universal healthcare would keep many people off the street to begin with.

Why are you so desperately trying to change the subject? You have posted your opinion. You should let others post theirs.
lol now I'm stopping free speech
Quote by Chryses
Some people don't see 'others' as you do.
Still, as we have seen in the posts to this thread, most people agree that a cashless economy discriminates against the poor.
some people make up their minds and fit their narratives to that. some of us live in the real world. a quick history. i grew up in the hood. i know poverty. i spent a summer homeless. i know these people. i have worked with these people. i have done handouts, knowing that they probably won't be going torwards food and shelter. it made me feel good. i doubt it helped. when i was homeless i panhandled. some of it went towards food. more of it went to getting high. you need the escape.
most people in this thread agree, sure. most people in this thread don't really know what they are talking about. it's an academic argument to them. Felix and i live in the real world. it's not a exercise in thinking. might do you some good to listen to us, instead of discounting our thoughts on the subject simply because you don't like us.
curious, you're so concerned about the homeless, when was the last time you did something about the issue other than post in here? i mean, seriously, go down to the food bank and volunteer once a month or something. a friend of mine is disabled. she can still knit and crochet, tho. she makes beanies for the cold months. there's a lot of those in seattle, and gets them handed out. little things like that. i buy coats and hoodies at the local good will so i always have a few in my car. if i see someone who could benefit, i just it too them. socks are hugs. small investment, but damn, warm clean socks are like gold. buy a bag of decent socks and put them in people's hands - or on their feet.
in response to your theory that cashless society discriminates against the poor, i call bull shit. and really, the shops that have gone cashless are ones the poor wouldn't bother with. if you're poor, you're probably shopping at walmart et all. pretty sure they still accept cash.

Or, more to the point, you should let other people post their opinions without being antagonistic.

no one is being stopped posting their opinions simply because Felix is posting his. stop playing the victim card.

That’s just something else the poor have to live with.

so go do something about it. get involved. posting your opinion on a sex site won't change the world. you care so much, do something constructive.

The argument here reminded me of this.
The spare change being prayer in school... and the free lunches being the refusal to even comment on universal healthcare or anything that would actually help the homeless.
So disingenuous.

That most people in this thread disagree with you and Felix is not the same as not knowing what they are talking about. Everyone lives in their real world. Just because your real world in different from mine makes neither more real than the other. Why do you think I dislike you? I have not described you as "morally bankrupt" although you have of me. I suspect it is you who does not like me.
A bunch of accounts ran by the same idiot doesn't count as most people. Take those away and it's 50/50

Lush allows people to make dummy accounts, so, might as well ask them to stop.

Mighty impressive. For your next trick, hand someone $500 and mention - "Here's a little help towards your monthly expenses."
Quote by Chryses
I think many avoid posting to these threads because they read people posting comments like "You're sick, you're a sick evil bitch.", etc.
Generally those forms of response are a direct reply to the total lack of empathy being put on display by people who can barely spell the word, can't use it in a coherent sentence and find it difficuult to practice it with actual emotions when speaking of 'other people'. In this case, those others are the homeless poor.

I know my way around a sentence, and am generally empathetic, and I got called all that stuff by you (and others). One of the reasons I quit coming here, it was like arguing with toddlers.

Okay. Once again an inability to stay on topic results in a locked thread. Take your personal squabbles elsewhere, people.
Don't believe everything that you read.
