Topic: Hey, "anonymous" $500,000 anime spender
Anonymous A started this discussion 2 years ago #115,782
Will you give every regular on Minchan $5,000? Just the regular, long timers. If not, why not? If you can spend half a million dollars -- an amount that would be life changing for everyone here but you -- just to post purple scat anime, why won't you give money that would make a significant contribution to everyone's lives?

No, being a patron of the arts, and enabling autistics are not equally worthwhile.

Why not? Because the "anonymous" poster and the other person that joins in to argue the same thing as the "anonymous" poster in every thread are both sociopaths and couldn't fathom helping anyone other than themselves.

What do you need $5,000 for?
Someone that just spent a lot of money is the worst person to ask for cash. Find someone about to make a big purchase and ask them!

Irrelevant. The half a million scat purchase proves that $5 is literally NOTHING to her. It would mean NOTHING to her, but it could CHANGE LIVES for us.

I can't give you money I already spent regardless.

This will create videos that will make people feel emotions and inspire other artists.If you don't drink yourself to death you'll just buy ghost hunting gadgets touring old hotels.
Creating a lasting legacy is important. Autistic hobbies are compulsions that need to be worked out with trained behavioral specialists, not enabled by people around you.

If $5,000 sounds like a lot to you, a full time job would give you that much in two months. You would have much more money after a year.
If I gave everyone $5,000 I would go broke. Yes, saving up let me buy a very good machine, but not everything in my life is a luxury. You could make much more than that small gift if you sent out a few applications. Trust me, $5,000 would be gone very fast. A few bills and with inflation that's not much groceries.

$5 might be nothing to you but $5,000 is a lot of money, especially to someone who just spent $500,000. And even if they were to give it away, it would do a lot more good going to a homeless guy or a poor single mother than just some internet randos.

How is it a distraction?
You are using money I've already spent to suggest I can spend more?
If you wanted to adopt a dog, would you find someone that just gave up a dog?

Society needs to be more than feeding grain to people and making them work in industry. Art is necessary for a healthy existence, and benefits society in intangible ways.
Creating and appreciating art is not a waste of time, it matters to every part of life.

So is your bank account sitting at zero?
Even if it were, and we all know that it isn't, OP also asked how you justify this type of behavior. I've not yet seen any good explanation on this point. Even sycophants like Fake Anon couldn't help but slip up and acknowledge this was a colossally selfish and privileged thing to purchase compared to the amount of good you could've done with it. @1,279,214 (Fake anon !ZkUt8arUCU)

It's very illuminating seeing you explain this to us all. Thanks. You're so insanely out of touch that it's hard to even believe what I'm reading. I can't imagine how people are that are wealthier than you, since, comparatively, you're not all that wealthy at all. You've also incredibly new money and are already like this. Imagine generational wealth. America is a sick place.

> I've not yet seen any good explanation on this point.
Multiple times I've said this is for the pursuit of advancing the arts. I wasn't prepared to explain why the arts matter, that's something I thought you already knew.
> acknowledge this was a colossally selfish and privileged thing to purchase compared to the amount of good you could've done with it.
There's more good in creating something that lasts.
throwing more slop down for the poor will just lead to more people, devoid of artistic inspiration, multiplying in the depths.
A lot of Taiwanese mouths were fed when I finalized the order, but you aren't counting those for much.

He thinks your wife (he thinks that's me) is using too much money to spend on the finer things in life, despite the benefits the art have to the rest of society.
Neither of us can convince him otherwise, because in his mind we're working together. He won't say anything explicitly because that would be doing what you wanted and it would make certain statements a liability later on.
