so if someone is molested as a child and it causes them to be a pedo, we just say "how one man reacts to traumatic experiences does not speak to how others might" ?

i feel like since we are dealing with someone like lil nas x we give him the benefit of the doubt but wouldnt others

its your mom, effort is the minimum

he has very clearly stated that he's put in effort

that is what we should say
but then we should follow it with

"how can we help this person"

it makes the whole world safer that way
obviously we wish bad things didn't happen

but they do, and how we react is up to us

i feel that this is especially true when it comes to childhood trauma

also,

it can be much more grey
than this line of thinking

as someone who felt like a caged bird as a kid

paying a little bit of money for her to have an apartment or some place to stay is minimum effort, i dont care if hes "tried to get her to go to rehab" or not

If she don’t go to rehab that I’m payin for im not bout to give her money to kill herself

If that her that’s sad. There’s no excuse for a multimillionaire pop star to have their mom on the street begging for money

Why? So she can be living in a place and have the rest she save for dope money? Hell nah

this is a beautiful way of looking at the world

you sound like how jesus christ would, i think we should all feel this way. i dont disagree with you

but realistically the world, espeically some place like ktt or twitter is so quick to throw someone away because they cheated or because theres allegations of abuse or said the wrong thing or whatever. but then theres a thread with someones own mom on the street thats a millionaire and theres compassion and i just dont understand

this is very pathetic to read

one day you will grow and hopefully not feel this way

You aren't convincing anyone with your lame ass grandstanding breh

What would be a hypothetical amount of times it would be okay for him to help or attempt before you can stop?
What if she keeps turning down rehab? Getting away from it?

Are you allowed to imprison your own family member illegally just so they're off the streets? Do you have to continue this process until they die?

Where is the line? How many times do you have to try?

Damn this dude trash trash

lame ass grandstanding? you even saying that to me is weird as f***

youre defending the s*** out of some vague situation neither of us understand - then saying im doing some s*** for attention?

nobody should feel ok about seeing a millionaires mom out on the street and homeless. why are you even quoting me you obviously going to defend his 'attempts to help' for whatever reason

Ok so are you going to answer any of my questions or are you just going to aimlessly preach about how "you can do more than the bare minimum!"

s*** is weird

i think it's more to do with the way the internet is currently designed

we are incentivized to be so hot or cold for clout that we've lost the ability to see each other as anything other than a come up or a joke

it's sad

but i think there is hope

it just will take a concerted effort
and a belief that we can do it

a buddy of mine said this phrase and it stuck with me

"humans will save the world"
we have to believe that is true

otherwise we are doomed

peace to you

honestly it's nobody's business and it feels wrong to even comment on it without all the facts but with that being said, anyone who is a child of an addict can tell you that it's not that simple. you can't save someone who doesn't want to be saved and even tho he's rich, he's still human and undoubtably has feelings about his mother's addiction. people act like his money somehow has the power to solve this

youve been defending his actions from page 1, i think you have a bias that im unaware of so not sure any good can come of it

you even using some extreme example of "imprisoning your own family illegal" illustrates that

ive already said paying for rent is putting in minimum effort - theres your answer

If you're asserting somebody ought to do something versus somebody should do something you need to be very clear on your guidelines

LNX personally is irrelevant and I would be saying the same thing if somebody else was in this exact circumstance

i appreciate your perspective my friend

and i completely agree. hopefully this is a phase of the culture that we can move past to a more forgiving and understanding one.

we all have work to do, hopeully we all see that

We all really dont know much of anything so seeing ppl say all this s*** about their relationship is strange even if nas x shared some light on it.

We dont even know if that's her lmaoo

understand that you have to react in your own way to get the result that you want.

yes maybe you should buy an apartment and furnish her lifestyle.
but you're just killing your mom

yes maybe you shouldn't do any of theese things but you're not compassionate

it's none of our business/ don't judge something you don't have to live.
