Same could have sad on any random subject.
Examples:
- High-fructose corn syrup is eating the world. . You can fight it like so many people before, but you will lose like everyone else
- Cancer is eating the world. You can fight it like so many people before, but you will lose like everyone else
Etc.
I think bad things could be replaced with better things where we have this luxury. Taking a passive stance on this is pointless and lazy.
