Excellent question. I have to put myself in their shoes. I don't want my kidneys going to.. a member of the North Korean dictatorship, or the CCP. Or any of the elite in Dubai. I don't see anything wrong with my preferences there, so we would have to allow people to discriminate indiscriminately. I guess I would have to be in favour. There are people that I think are more deserving than others. Jeffery Dahmer isn't getting my organs.
We've decided long ago that bad people surviving is better than good people dying.
“Many that live deserve death. And some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement.”
I do not understand the concept of "deserving to live." I did nothing to deserve life; it was given to me before I could do anything. Some people think that people can forfeit their "right to life" by their actions, but how can someone forfeit a right they never acquired?
I understand killing for practical reasons, in some cases, but claiming that everyone is born with a right to life that can be taken away is incoherent,
TBH I'd rather donate to a serial killer that can realistically harm a dozen of people at most, than a person willfully supporting a global child molestation ring harming thousands annually and holding back the society for centuries.
A 10-year-old isn't a willful supporter of these causes.
The CCP doesn't need your kidneys, they harvest them from the Uyghurs.
it's always projection with you racists https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-64488678
Stating facts is racist now, huh? Do you feel that because US and its prison system is fucked, killing Uyghurs is somehow justified? What about 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre? Is it racist to mention it as well?
The CCP is not a race.
I don't know what CCP is, but I do know that vast majority of people in China support the Communist Party of China, and that all the western smears against China are rooted in projection of things that are actually happening in the west.
