Its a funny image for mocking people. Doesn't really fit in with this case. Just my opinion.

I gotcha. I don't think your viewpoint is dumb. I just disagree with it

I'm suprised we haven't heard about a gofundme set up for that man yet.
Also, I agree 100% it would suck if someone used it for drugs or alcohol to get high.
But I also couldn't blame anyone in the family that said "fuck it" and got high.

Maybe for the same reasons you didn't contribute? I don't really know how it works if you set one up on behalf of some other party. Is there accountability?

True giving is best done without any expectations, otherwise it is more a contract - even if only a mental/emotional one.
Few people can give in a pure way.
The only exception in terms of giving I would make is for drug addicts and gambling addicts. I sometimes give to old bums who will spend it on booze. They won't turn their lives around at that stage and my money is just a gift to someone who is essentially terminally ill and my cash will just ease their suffering for a day or two.
I never give it to younger bums, begging mafia or stupid Gofundmes by deluded Westerners.
So unless that man's family consists of hopeless drug or gambling addicts, then it is a worthy cause to give.

Sad Pepe is often used for posts about feeling unity over something sad. That's legitimately not made to belittle the victim. It's just thoroughly chan-ish in its character, so that can be hard to catch if you're not used to how they express things.

I highly doubt it was just a coincidence that this podcast was chosen, that you Scoundrel, glossed over Tariq's bullshit tweet response in this very thread.
I didn't see Nasheed's tweet, and I tend to be oblivious to his latter-day work and statements. Tariq Nasheed has gone off the deep end with his race obsession, no question about it. His early Mack Lessons podcasts are still valuable, though.
Nasheed and Heartiste are peas in a pod and present a moral quandary.
Do their current stances on race mean you shouldn't listen to them anymore?
Is it okay to look at their old stuff as long as you stay away from them now?
How far should we take any of this?

I don't think Heartiste and Nasheed are peas in a pod. Heartiste has a better understanding of science and begins with scientific fact, while Nasheed doesn't and cannot.

I am not comparing them on all points, only on the point of game blog turned race nasty.

There's an enormous difference between "race nasty" that at least begins with verified scientific research (such as Heartiste and Charles Murray) and "race nasty" that abandons all scientific pursuits (such as Tariq Nasheed, Carolyn Rouse, and the protesters against Charles Murray).
