Congrats on contradicting the absolute literal interpretation of what was obviously hyperbole, I guess.
Cool, so glad you're happy to erase the existence of the poor and desperate for the sake of what, exactly?
See, in this context, we were literally talking about people doing that, and they literally do that, so to say "nobody" does it is just a false claim.
If you weren't trying to minimise the struggle of poor people, you fucked up, because that's what your comment did.
Nice work trying to find an angle where you were only literally wrong and not in the privacy of your own head.
What about the rest of your claims, were they hyperbole as well, or something else? You've just dropped them.
