Man. This is where I stop engaging online. Like really, what is the point of even participating?

In this response, I detect the typical European tendency of elevating risk over opportunity. This is not meant as a personal attack, or meant to be defamatory. I am detecting a fam…

Nihilistic garbage lecture, that is my first opinion. On the other hand, he could have intended the exaggerated pessimistic outlook, to spur into action. But my bias remains, I don…
