How is it ignorant if everything is good and you won’t slip into poverty and suffer?

[u/longiner → u/Voltthrower69]

You'll say that if you are one of the lucky ones. The unlucky ones who did no wrong but accidentally stepped in the grey zone won't be saying that.

And they might ask you for help but you'll turn a blind eye because you don't want to be within a mile of the grey zone.

"become politically active in the wrong way"

there is no wrong way to become politically active.

you are comparing being a drug addict to becoming politicly active? you are a lost cause

[u/Substantial-Key5114 → u/Agitated_Muffins]

Here's a few example of "politically active in the wrong way"

- Storming government/capital buildings

- Committing acts of terrorism for a political cause

- Spreading false or misleading information to manipulate public opinion

So yes they are not comparable, I'd argue being politically active in the wrong way is way worse than being a drug user, and can lead to lead to much more real-world harm.

being politicly active and doing violent crimes are not the same thing... you are mixing speaking an opinion and storming the capital under the same umbrella...

thing is, china puts them the same too and i could only guess why you think the same
