Does that make it funny?

When it comes to sex doing what you like and not doing what you don’t like is all that matters.

That’s an extremely subjective statement.

You are asking as a mind alienated from its body. Your body has interests that are not your interests, and it uses suffering to bend you to advance its interests for it. We all exist in a state of conflict with our own biological inheritance.

Our bodies generate a mind to suffer on its behalf, because without awareness it isn’t really capable of suffering. That is the point of your existence as a mind. You exist to suffer on behalf of something that is not capable of suffering on its own, so that by your aversion to suffering, you will make choices that are in the interests of your body.

You have to decide whether to simply adopt the interests of your body, or whether to try to hold on to your own interests and make that the point of your life.

Also, “The experiences of non-human animals are real and matter. Their suffering is identical in nature to your own. It harms us when we take pleasure in cruelty and violence.”

I will help anyone who asks for help if it is in my capacity. I know many people who have had to sleep on the street at some time in their lives. It would seem that you have lived sheltered from such things, going from your extremely loaded language and apparent ignorance. Maybe try engaging.

This casts it as something that is wrong with the person, but homelessness, hunger, and want are not inevitable consequences of who we are, they are forced on us by the ruling class. Homelessness is not an accident. We suffer by design. The “best” choice is to reverse the wealth disparity that has grown so oppressively since the last time everything fell down.

The term “beggar” carries significant social, historical, and ethical baggage, and using it can raise several concerns, especially in contemporary discussions around poverty, homelessness, and social justice.

1. Dehumanization and Reductionism

   Concern: The term defines a person solely by their economic condition or behavior, rather than as a complex individual.

   Example: Saying “a beggar” instead of “a person who is unhoused and asking for help” reduces their identity to a single desperate act, often erasing context like trauma, systemic failure, or disability.

2. Stigmatization and Shame

   Concern: “Beggar” has strong negative connotations, often associated with laziness, fraud, or failure, regardless of the reality.

   Social impact: This contributes to public hostility or apathy toward people experiencing poverty, reinforcing stereotypes that they are undeserving of compassion or aid.

3. Historical and Cultural Bias

   Concern: In many cultures, “begging” has been treated as morally suspect or even criminal. In some legal systems, “vagrancy” laws were used to target marginalized communities.

   Implication: Using the term today without awareness of this history can echo punitive or classist attitudes.

4. Lack of Structural Awareness

   Concern: The term “beggar” often implies personal failure, obscuring systemic issues like:

•    Lack of affordable housing
  

•    Mental health service gaps
  

•    Underemployment or exploitative labor
  

•    Racialized poverty and intergenerational trauma
  

  Result: It discourages deeper reflection or policy solutions by framing poverty as an individual problem.

5. Alternative Language and Framing

   Many prefer phrases like:

•    “Unhoused person”
  

•    “Person experiencing homelessness”
  

•    “Person asking for assistance”
  

  These terms are person-first and focus on circumstances rather than character judgment.

Summary

Using “beggar” can be perceived as outdated, pejorative, and lacking empathy. In thoughtful or inclusive contexts—especially academic, activist, or journalistic—it is generally advised to choose language that centers the humanity and complexity of individuals rather than casting them as social burdens.

It’s not a tu quoque when NK isn’t hurting anyone but themselves and the Americans are burning down the fucking planet. One is an urgent situation, the other is political theatre that most of us are unqualified to even analyze due to the embargoes, censorship and pervasive propaganda.

Being worried about rumors that:

they also execute/punish people(and their family members) for trying to leave the country for good or talk shit about their supreme leader

from a tiny, insignificant backwater nation when the so called leader of the free world is disappearing people from potentially every country on Earth, when the most powerful trading nation is intentionally destabilizing the global economy, well it reeks of looking for a distraction. The US government has as much to do with what is happening to NK people right now as the NK government does.

It’s situational surely, and I think an experienced cyclist knows when to take the sidewalk. But an experience cyclist also needs to know that sidewalks ARE NOT SAFE, they are just a less unsafe alternative when road conditions become intolerably unsafe, and they need to use even more caution than they normally do on the road when they take that option.

Right of way crossings are extremely dangerous, and riding on the sidewalk creates more such crossings that are even more dangerous than the ones encountered on the road, because drivers don’t have the visibility to anticipate the cyclist. Riding through right of way crossings where drivers expect pedestrians gets you killed.

If you are an American, eat what’s on your plate before you worry about NK.
