I’m surprised that it’s only 90:1 ratio. I’d have expected it to be quite a bit greater ratio than that, to be honest.
Let's take a deep dive through that person's comment history and try to see where they might be going wrong. This is what I found within the last 5 days of their comment history.
- "Evil looks like fun at a family picnic. Going to work. Getting by." <- Believes that going to work is evil
- "Humans cooperating via corporations is evil. And until people grasp this, we're are fucked. " <- Believes that working for or even interacting with corporations is evil
- "We just need money. Give us money." <- Just wants people to give them money
- "Corporate culture needs to die and we all need to actively be killing it" <- Surely this person is interested in working a job and earning a living
- "The clouds are real. They're some kind of giant UFO camouflaged drone tech they're trying to perfect and it's scary AF" <- Sure seems solidly connected to reality
- "We need people to RECOGNIZE that this society isn't worth saving"
- "I'm approaching stand on the corner and beg after 20 years of successfulish Internet begging between jobs" <- Has spent the last 20 years just begging people for money on the internet rather than working
Looking through their post history, at all the vile extremist ideological stuff in there, if anything the system kind of has failed, failed the rest of us, because this person should have been forced into mental health treatment. They're unhinged and not able to function in society.
