Reply to comment by Hereforthemadness1 in Does NH cover transgender HRT treatment for people on SSI/medicaid? by NeitherAsk1441

Drug addicts could help themselves but they'll lose their friends and stop being cool if they do that.

I just recently separated myself from the same kinds of people. It was easy: I made the choice.

For someone presumably pushing the modern style of thinking in regards to gender and equality, you have a very antiquated view on drug addicts. Across the board, both society wide and medically, drug addiction, in particular opioid addiction which is the biggest issue in NH, and across the USA, is completely acknowledged as a chemical rewriting of the brain that the addicts themselves cannot simply “decide” to change.

For someone who I’m sure wails and gnashes their teeth against the oppression and lack of equality of a very minor group of the population, I’m gently surprised at your total lack of insight or compassion to the victims of the opioid crisis.

Though I suppose I’m not surprised, many people are so self absorbed that anyone’s issues beyond the length of your own nose are not important.

You’re making a lot of judgement based off of a perfectly reasonable question by OP. Are you projecting perhaps?

Projecting what? I’m well aware of my insecurities, personal demons and methods of dealing with them. I don’t ask anyone to help, I pay for it myself.

You assumed they “gnash their teeth about oppression” over a simple question they asked and completely eviscerated their character. You may not ask people for help, but you clearly need it.

Yeah the dudes who live in the woods on the edge of my town are real concerned with looking cool. That’s a bad take.
