The co-founder of failed cryptocurrency exchange FTX pleaded not guilty to a seven count indictment charging him with wire fraud, securities fraud and money laundering.

An attorney for FTX co-founder Sam Bankman-Fried said in federal court Tuesday his client has to subsist on bread, water and peanut butter because the jail he’s in isn’t accommodating his vegan diet.

        Lmao who are you speaking for? No one wants to rehabilitate people because you say so? Who is this “we”?

        And christ, man, accusing me of pushing an agenda? How cliche can you get? This is literally just my opinion - me voicing it isn’t “pushing my agenda”.

          My guy, we need only read the thread to see that all of you brigading and concern trolling are in the minority. It’s a fact. Specifically in this case because Sam Bankman-Fried is the perfect example of the two-tiered legal system we have in the U.S., a different set of rules and consequences based on wealth. The only reason he’s even in jail suffering the way he should be is because he started stealing from other rich people.

          And christ, man, accusing me of pushing an agenda? How cliche can you get?

          Oh, excuse you?

          So you agree that the is is solely about people wanting blood, solely out of spite, and doesn’t actually serve any tangible purpose? Glad we’ve got that figured out.

          An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind, my friend.

          You literally are out here parroting one-liners you memorized from shitty revenge movies and you’re going to accuse me of pandering to cliches? Get the fuck out of here.

          You’re in here pushing evil, anti-justice apologetics to once again deny the American people the justice they deserve after so long and it’s obvious. You don’t care about what’s right or what’s good for Americans or what’s good for morality or the world, you only care about what makes you personally feel better. And I won’t fucking let you get what you want.

            One might consider the fact that until this very moment, my comments were consistently the most upvoted of the two of us. And that somehow on a two day old post all of your comments got upvoted three times, while mine were all downvoted three times. But hey, I’ll just assume that that’s a coincidence.

            Either way, what matters is that most of the top comments are advocating for getting this guy a proper vegan selection. So clearly it’s not so simply “a fact”.

            Also, did you seriously pull a comment from a discussion I was having with an entirely different person? Did you stalk my account for that? That’s bizarre, but what’s even more bizarre is that you think the quote “an eye for an eye makes the whole world blind” comes from a revenge movie lmao.

            evil, anti-justice apologetics

            It’s literally just empathy - calling it “evil” sounds like projection to me. Especially when you’re the one advocating for further harm, and trying to justify it with mob mentality.

            you only care about what makes you personally feel better

            Again, just projection. The only reason to punish people further is to make the rest of us feel better. Someone “getting what they deserve” is cathartic for the masses, and for no other reason than pure spite. It accomplishes nothing. What I believe doesn’t make me feel better - how would it? It’s far harder to be empathetic towards bad people than it is to simply view them as less than human and move on.

            • It’s literally just empathy - calling it “evil” sounds like projection to me. Especially when you’re the one advocating for further harm, and trying to justify it with mob mentality.

              Imagine calling apologizing for, defending and using as a political tool to demand no one be punished for anything, denying humanity justice, empathy.

              You absolutely are disgusting and vile. Get away from me.
