You get to choose between getting punched in the arm, or getting kicked in the face. If you don’t choose, the latter is more likely.
I downvoted both comments, because they’re both talking point by the “everyone gets kicked in the face” party. I also don’t really see “but how do we fix the world?” as a requirement to vote against getting kicked in the face.
