That's exactly what you're doing and your doing it even more in this message!

"I think they have the best of the what worst

Fuck no, there's no "best" in this case, pushing people to gamble is pushing people to gamble and that's it. I used to work in the gambling industry and I've seen the damage it can do, it's fucking disgusting to defend a private business doing it.

I agree with you, I hate gambling. It has ruined many lives.

But that doesn't mean I cannot discuss the shit as it exists.

That shouldn't be too hard to understand. I won't engage with this further. Have a good one.
