    I get the point you’re making but in the context of the OP the reply didn’t seem too far off. Yours though is getting pretty close to declaring a depression epidemic in Latin America, I presume because your saw red in their reply

      No that was a generalization, not specifically in the context of OP. Life definitely doesn’t have the same value to all individuals as u/Zwuzelmaus claims. That is NOT specifically related to Latin America.
      Regarding that read my response in the main thread.
