As I said, I'm sorry about your brother, truly. That doesn't take away from the fact that all our curses and all our blessings are fundamentally ours to bear. I'm not doling out any consequences, just advocating for individualism and voluntary association. These are the principles that underpin our prosperity. I've lived through plenty of misfortune and suffering. All of that is mine though. I would rather die screaming in agony than pry greedily into the pocket of an unwilling stranger. I'm somewhat disappointed we cannot disagree about this in a friendly manner.
