    Ah yes, because *checks notes… telling people to do things like press charges is being an armchair warrior.

    Also yes, because being in poverty and knowing deep in your heart half the people who say they support you would bail on the country entirely if it meant saving their own skins doesn’t make you tired of hearing it. Because if these people cared so much for each other, they might stand up for each other instead of turning tail and saying “save yourself” while doing nothing to help.

    It’s like telling a drowning person to save themselves while holding tightly onto the life vest you could throw them.

      Telling someone else to risk their life is what an armchair warrior does. It’s what you are doing.
