Re: Rant Thread
(Anonymous) 2015-11-14 06:26 am (UTC)(link)1) Given recent history, you cannot possibly blame people for feeling a tiny bit of panic when they hear the word "tsunami". I mean come on:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2011_T%C5%8Dhoku_earthquake_and_tsunami
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2004_Indian_Ocean_earthquake_and_tsunami
Yes, this tsunami is not the same magnitude and so far no damage has been reported. But people remember, and they worry and this is not at ALL unreasonable. If your house burned down and you lost your family ten years ago, you'd probably get worried if you just saw a little bit of smoke coming out of your newly rebuilt house, yes? And anyone who told you that you were making a big fuss over nothing would be an insensitive dick.
2) People expressing concern over one part of the world does not take anything away from any other part of the world. Empathy does not work that way. Let's say my 87 year old grandma has fallen and broken a hip. That's very serious for her, and naturally her family would be very worried. Is it as serious as all the people who died in Paris today? Well, no. But here's the thing: pain and suffering is not a contest. We're not awarding medals to people or countries who are suffering the most, and we don't shush people or countries we judge to be suffering less than others. I can feel sorrow for Paris and its people and still be concerned about my grandma. People who tell me that I should pipe down about my grandma because of Paris are being insensitive dicks.
