While I have some sympathy for those who are less lucky than me, in the long run playing the appeasement game will hurt them even more. Furthermore, government can take ad-hoc redistributive actions, such as increased or reworked taxation. Our government is already spending 46% of the GDP in random crap for far less noble reasons.

OTOH I hate from the bottom of my heart the entire wave of pseudo-intellectuals and anti-western useful idiots who push the "two-sides" narrative. (Just to be clear because this is the internet -- I'm not implying anything about you specifically)
