Reply #30: You seem to miss my point

I have never dismissed the beauracratic muddle and insensitivity of this agency and tend to agree with you. I am criticizing the ridiculous display of irrationality of Ellen and all of the "drama" around a disappointing and sad situation. But when I look at the state of the world, the horrors that are talked about daily on this message board, the overmagnification of this small issue seems to pale in comparison to the real struggles of human beings.

Now if you are going to travel into the realm of relativism regarding judging one person's disappointment and sadness as being worthy as someone else's then I have to entirely disagree. The horrors of Darfur, the rape of thousands of girls in the Congo, sex slavery in far East and the plight of monks of Myanmar absolutely DWARF Ellen's ludicrous upset.
