^You know, you shouldn't feel too bad about all the destruction you're causing.
I mean, since the attacks started, there's been a lot of support pouring in to emergency aid organizations.
So anyone still alive gets taken care of...
>Oh, that's good to hear!=C28-1-1
>I guess that's a good thing...=C28-1-2

~C28-1-1
^Yeah, I think so.
It's inspiring to see such generous outreach in the face of hardships.
Although...
&C28-2

~C28-1-2
^It's certainly not a bad thing.
Makes me feel a little less guilty...
And it's inspiring to see such generous outreach in the face of hardships.

~C28-2
^It got me thinking too.
Like when a titan attacks, it's an emergency for everyone.
But then there's people facing other emergencies on a regular basis, like not being able to afford the basics to live.
And no one is rallying for those people?
>Those people are different.=C28-2-1
>It's more important when it's an emergency for everyone.=C28-2-2
>That's a bigger issue.=C28-2-3

~C28-2-1
^Different how though? In most cases, their entire lives have been one struggle after another.
In a sense, shouldn't we be more focused on their problems, since they're the ones at the biggest disadvantage?
>We don't have the resources to solve all their problems.=C28-3-1
>They'll probably just always be at a disadvantage.=C28-3-1

~C28-2-2
^I guess you're right, but does that make a smaller group of people suffering any less awful?
Shouldn't they be getting help anyway, even if it's not a titan attack?
>There's not enough resources for all of that.=C28-3-1
>There's always going to be people suffering.=C28-3-2

~C28-2-3
^I would agree. It's a huge issue. Bigger than the titans even.
So wouldn't it make more sense to tackle the bigger issues first?
And then at least everyone is on a level playing field?
>There's not enough resources for issues that size.=C28-3-1
>It will never be a level playing field.=C28-3-2

~C28-3-1
^I'm not sure if that's true. If you look at all the support going to victims of titan attacks, there's really no end to it. Even big companies are pitching in millions and millions. People are rebuilding their homes. But it's only for the victims of titan attacks?
>Those people lost so much more.=C28-3-1-1
>You're saying you could end world hunger then?=C28-3-1-2
>Everyone should get the same support.=C28-3-1-3

~C28-3-2
^I know we'll never be able to solve it all. But we're not doing nearly enough.
We need to be ready to catch these people when they slip. The fact that so many people have fallen through the cracks is the real emergency.
>I don't know what you mean.=C28-3-2-1
>I think you're right.=C28-5

~C28-3-2-1
^I guess what it comes down to is the 'strong' looking after the 'weak'. Taking where there is abundance and giving where there is lacking...
>Everyone needs to pull their own weight.=C28-4-1
>Yes, we do need to look after everyone.=C28-4-2

~C28-3-1-1
^But only because they had more to lose in the first place.
Imagine having nothing to lose at all.
Wouldn't that be a bigger tragedy?
>I don't know about that.=C28-3-2-1
>I guess you're right.=C28-5

~C28-3-1-2
^Yes. Or at least we have the means to do it.
It's been an ongoing struggle for so long, I don't know if anyone sees it as an emergency anymore.
There's just no spectacular urgency to it I guess...
&C28-3-2

~C28-3-1-3
^Yes, but inevitably some people need more support than others. I think our ability to have the 'strong' carry the 'weak' is what separates us from the animals.
>Everyone still needs to pull their own weight.=C28-4-1
>Yes, we do need to look after everyone.=C28-4-2

~C28-4-1
^I know it's easy to feel that way when you are pulling your own weight. But nobody enjoys being a burden.
What if you suddenly fell ill? Would you still feel the same way?
>I would have to deal with that myself.=C28-4-1-1
>I guess I'd want help too.=C28-4-1-2

~C28-4-2
^I think so. Unfortunately our titan attacks probably aren't helping things.
But I guess that's life...
I'll catch you later.

~C28-4-1-1
^I suppose there's something admirable about preferring to die over asking somebody for help.
I'm sorry you feel that way though.
Anyway... I should probably let you go.

~C28-5
^It's easy to see a new titan attack and feel sorry for those affected.
But we can't forget there's people losing their homes every day in much less dramatic ways...
Anyway, I'll catch you later.
