Singling out one country proves you aren’t better than them btw. Proves you’re worse

Well I would single out the country I live in, it would only make sense. Also I stated world population and then specified within my country population so please, spare me the fake outrage.

60% aren’t bad. Maybe 15%

Man, absolutely not at any given point the incarcerated prison population is ~2 million people; that’s including state prison, federal pen and state jails but not accounting for county jails. Also not accounting for people on probation or on parole; state or federal. I’m talking about adults; adults make 78% of the U.S. population, I know I’m better than 60% out of 78% of adults.

Did I not say I have faults in my original comment, I did but my faults aren’t worse than the vast majority. So once again I know I’m better than most people. And how am I acting?

What did the vast majority do to you?

Not to me but to society, let’s start with not minding their own business. The gay couple 10 states away did nothing to the old woman in a mega church why is she worried about their marriage instead of the pastor who is stealing. The IBLP cult hide that many of their male members assault minors, that’s a problem to me. Many people drink and drive and say it’s not a problem, I always will be better than them. So yeah I can be the above average person and better than 60% of adults in the U.S.

proving yourself wrong right out the gates by admitting that you think every person in prison is necessarily a worse person than you are cause of course there are no wrongful convictions, victimless crimes, small-time weed dealers, kids who did one or two inconsequential acts of vandalism or trespassing on abandoned buildings, people who resorted to shoplifting because they couldn’t afford to eat…

Wrongful convictions don’t make up as much as you think it does of people in prison/jail and I hope you know the difference and consequentially you are speaking about a very tiny portion of the population less than 2% of the prison population. But for the big four, murder, rape, burglary, arson yeah I’m better than them. And people who abuse elderly and child, if I can’t help them at the very least I won’t hurt them. I don’t know why that’s hard to grasp.

I love how you seem to think that whatever source you pulled this 2% statistic from must be like, objective and omniscient. as if god themself had whispered it in your ear lmao no one knows the true rate of wrongful convictions, because the police & court systems are our means of attempting to determine the truth of these matters—when those means fail us, we generally don’t have any way of knowing. you weren’t thinking critically about this at all

there are also plenty of people locked up on murder charges who simply snapped and killed abusive parents or spouses out of self defense but whose lawyers weren’t powerful enough to present their case effectively—you’re not automatically morally superior to them. folks who commit burglary during a low point out of desperation are capable of growing and changing, too. hopefully you’re capable of doing the same!

Neither are you, that’s what ACLU champions for and works on and is one of their biggest pillars. You think someone saying they at the minimum better than the worst people of society is so bad is a problem, cause why would anyone want to be comparable of the worst people. At the bare minimum if you can’t help people at least don’t hurt them and the rock bottom of people can’t do that. The fact you can’t accept that is proof you aren’t better you’d rather tear it down than admit.
