I know you called it a soap box, but I appreciate the perspective. Someone else in this thread suggested the question was offensive, but when I asked why in earnest, they just blew up with accusation after accusation. Your explanation gets the point across pretty well.
I do believe that OP’s question was asked in a context that wasn’t intended to be offensive, but instead asking the audience what challenge they feel they’d be better equipped to face. But I do get (and agree with) what you’re saying, that a larger discussion about the implications of these topics deserves to be had.
I don’t think any offense or malice was intended with the question, it’s honestly more the people saying how much easier it would be to do one or the other, or how their life wouldn’t change because they have a desk job… That’s a matter of people needing education on a topic, y’know?
