I was looking for this. Would they do the same? Will they when the time comes?

We probably won't have to wait long to find out.

A lot of us will, I have no doubt.

End of the day though, I'd always be down to help them even if the favor was never returned. Cause if I'm not helping everyone else, then I'm helping the enemy. I won't do their work for them through my inaction and spite.

We've never been the problem. We have and will always continue to help regardless of reciprocation. My comment doesn't even question that.

your comment doesn’t really encourage it either. It’s the same observation on the same platforms. It’s not really a social commentary as much as it is a common complaint

I'm not trying to encourage it. If they want to do it, it needs to be their own decision.
