Nothing offends me. The above would be karma. Acknowledging the karma but not mourning his loss is sad. That's just me.

Is wearing revealing clothes and then getting raped karma too? Would seem to fit your definition.

Uhm no! You clearly don't get it per your example.

So according to you, it is ok that I acknowledged the Karma but I did not mourn his loss. (that is the sad part). Mourning his loss? Is that what I should be doing? And how did you mourn his loss? Did you have a 30 second moment of silence for him and everyone else who dies that you do not know? Please do enlighten me with your mourning experience? I had no idea that you took so personally someone's death that you had no idea of and actually experienced grief over it. How do you actually accomplish anything when you should be mourning all the time?

I don't mourn his death, I don't celebrate his death. I have no personal connection to him whatsoever.

As a matter of fact, does the original poster not point out the same thing by posting the article without using the word Karma? Let's take it further, the person who wrote the article and publication who published did the same? It is newsworthy because it demonstrates Karma.

Mourning was not the right word, acknowledging a loss would have been the humane thing to do instead of just gloating/doting on karma.

No. That does not match any definition of Karma.

Karma is based on putting something bad out into the world, and then the world giving it back.
Wearing revealing clothing is not putting something bad out into the world.

Not according to the definition cern put out there.

Yes, which fits Steve's analogy.

No, it doesn't.

The force generated by a person's actions is a result of the good or bad you are putting out into the world. Not what you are wearing. You know what Karma means... come on...

No, it doesn't.

What you are wearing is certainly part of what you are putting out in the world. Like if you wore an anti-vaccine t-shirt.

That's not remotely close to what the concept of Karma is.

If a woman wore a shirt that said, "I hope you get raped" then I would see your point, but provocative attire is not intent towards doing something bad or putting out negative energy like your example of an anti-vax T-shirt.

You knew what Karma meant a couple years ago

I don't know who Ray is. May he rest in peace. I was not referring to him.

BTW, your comment makes no sense. If he has passed, he cannot post, correct? You can't call out posts that do not exist.

I thought you were referring to posts from BayonneRay, who recently passed. If you were not, then I apologize. Just pointing it out because if you were referencing it, would have been pretty shitty.

Nope. This is a bad argument. It wouldn't work for an alleged rape defendant in court, would it?

Yeah, he urged people not to get vaccinated, which resulted in people not getting vaccinated. He caught the virus that could have been prevented by getting the vaccine and succumbed to the illness. Sounds pretty karmic to me, unlike the gross suggestion that wearing revealing clothing is implicitly "asking for it." I think people arguing in good faith can discern a difference between the two situations.

Seems to be a lot of discussion on the definition of "karma" on here - on one hand, maybe he truly believed what he was saying, and maybe that's not so bad compared to someone who knows the efficacy of the vaccine and cynically criticizes it anyway for personal benefit (and I believe that there are people out there who are doing that). In my opinion, at the end of the day, he had a platform to reach a large audience and he said things that convinced his audience to not get the vaccine, which has in turn lengthened the pandemic and perpetuated misery across the country and the world. Maybe some folks on here would have preferred "You reap what you sow," but I think it's as apt as calling it karma.

Exactly. Unfortunately I think there are a few here who do not discuss things in good faith.
SPK usually does. I just think he whiffed on this one.

Nope, karma can be a lot of things. To some (not me), bad things can happen for a variety of silly reasons.

But I am not going to gloat over someone's death.

Way to twist the topic. It's dehumanizing to say "karma" or speak ill of the dead because he chose not to get a medical procedure.

You guys will never get what's going on. I feel bad for you.

Please enlighten me

 

[Hallsome]

Twist the topic? You chose the word to dehumanizing which honestly was an odd choice of words from you considering your views on how many lives were lost to Covid.

Again. He made the choice... the wrong one, but that it is choice. I'm not speaking ill of him because he chose not to get it.

I'm speaking ill of him because he had megaphone and he was trying to influence others based on conspiracy theories. He was a part of the anti-vaccine echo chamber which is why people believe these vaccines have magnetic tracking chips in them and part of why so many people chose against getting the vaccine and are now hospitalized.

What was the conspiracy theory he was pushing? I’ve never heard of this guy. RIP, though.

Farrel is dead. He was outspoken against the vax. Bad Karma.

RIP.

The End.

Following up on this I’m curious about what conspiracy he was pushing? Tracking devices or something? Thanks

 

[HallBall02]

its almost funny that some of these posters are so offended by speaking ill of the dead but won't do their civic duty and protect others by simply getting the vaccine and/or refrain from spreading lies that could prevent others from getting vaccinated. Its craziness.

For conspiracy theories, sh09 is your best bet to get the low-down.

It’s even funnier that certain posters are only capable of attacking other posters and shouting down anyone they disagree. And totally incapable of debating an issue. Sad.

Quite frankly, the only posters who were attacking were posters that called me sick, sad, nasty and horrible because I posted the word “Karma.” All others were debating this issue. I don’t mind the comments, it just showed how hypocritical those posters are.

Possibly the signature of this type of poster who uses the word “sad” as punctuation in a post.

Please demonstrate how I gloated over his death? Was it the font I used? Was the complete lack of any other accompanying words that surrounded”karma”. Did you feel how my fingers tapped the keyboard?

Absolute nonsense.

They are typical people in today's society. Dumbed down by media and celebrities, no critical thinking, no original thought, no knowledge or appreciation of history. Just follow the herd...

Called covid a scam. Said he wouldn't get vaccinated because the vaccine was poison and bullshit.

Thank you for responding. I was not aware of this, never heard of this man and so obviously never heard/read his “theories”
