This isn't a suffering competition, you're being ridiculous. You can say that about literally anything anybody complains about. No, while the things happening in Palestine are fucking horrific, "but worse things happen" doesn't invalidate other peoples' problems.

Frankly you sound like an ass even comparing the two.

Why should anyone explain that to a dead kid?

An orphan, is by definition, alive. No one talks about "dead orphans". Bruce Wayne isn't a "live orphan".

Anyway, my comment was about the privilege Western gamers have in 2026.

"NOAAWW! You can't take away my high-end video cards! I have the RIGHT to play video games at a reasonable price!"

Imagine explaining your vast suffering under these filthy capitalists from your watertight, HVAC controlled domicile. Said suffering is way overblown on lemmy.

I hope you think of people with no legs when you stub your toe in the dark.

(Invalidating anyone's suffering on the basis that someone else out there has it worse would mean that nobody else is justified to suffer than the absolutely most miserable. Suffering is an inescapable facet of the human condition, but it doesn't mean we shoudn't try reducing it.)

If the parents die it's an orphan. If the orphan then dies it is a dead orphan.

Chiming in with "there is greater misery in the world" is so tonedeaf. Yes, we all know. What does this has to do with the Problem that is discussed?

Go to therapy if all that is laying so heavy on you that you have to make every discussion about what's on your mind.
