    to a little kid suffering leukemia?

    to surgery on a mother who was hit by a drunk driver after delivering her kids to soccer practice?

    chemo and surgery on a treatable from of cancer in a 30 year old man?

    anti-venom for a snakebite victim?

    and part of it was taxed off to the goverment as part of the regular exchange of goods and services to pay for the implementation i'm sure.

    "we need the EC so people in lesser populated regions don't get ignored"
    "Firk those people that's only like 5% of the people who cares. ignore them!"

    This is actually very helpful. Fantastic example as well, the common phrase that I hear and would associate with this would be "white feminist" which is an equivalent accusation a liberal would make in an opposite direction.

    People just really really suck.
    can't stand them. they are in the way and loud and there are too many of them. and not enough niches and crevices or glades for me to relax in without people watching me.
    no man is an island but I just want to be a peninsula and it is impossible.

    despite that they should all be allowed to live happy lives.
    but still, Firk them.

    My family spent a few thousands on healthcare the last 8 years. God damn socialism.

    I mean, yea, there are "reasons." But ultimately it comes down to the same thing both sides do. Basically, you care about the things YOU care about more and understand the nuances and details, while the stuff you don't think are a problem you dismiss as an issue. So the right has stuff like SJW to label the people who care about things they don't think are a problem or overblown, while the left calls the right Racist or Misogynists etc. In both cases, the point is that, "I disagree with you on this issue, so instead of discussing it with you I am going to ridicule you. Also, I have these neat buckets I can put people into so I don't have to think about it too much and every time anyone says anything similar, they can just go into this bucket."

    For example, the right doesn't call pro-lifers SJW even though many of those people are doing the same thing as feminists or whatever, because the right believes abortion IS a problem. Meanwhile, the left ignores the valid reasons why people are concerned about immigration and border security and just calls anyone who wants to talk about those issues racists.
