I focused pretty heavily on how they get started down this path at an early age and had the facts hidden from them.  Dangle millions of dollars in front of people if they agree to jump off a bridge at the age of 12 and call it free will.  By the way, everyone else is doing it.  It is part of the culture.  You really can't expect people to see the dangers in an activity that everyone is participating in.  Spectating makes you complicit.


People are capable of making decisions for themselves. Your disagreement with their decisions does not change that.

Is there a word for people who can't understand others thought process?

There's a lot of things i am more concerned about. However watching the NFL is immoral and it is incredibly popular. So let's debate that issue.

Yea middle schoolers are adept at understanding consequences they will face 30 years in the future. That's why only adults start smoking cigarettes.

there is nothing to debate. many things should be immoral, but are not.

better let's consider things that should be moral. for example, broccolli

...it's like all of a sudden you believe in objective morality ...is there a particular set of objective moral beliefs you hold that cause you to brand the NFL this way ?

Not a good time to be an NFL ballplayer right now.

At any given point you can be crucified and paraded around for the sake of others enjoyment for doing things that other people do everyday and nobody cares about.

No they're not but when do they get seduced into the culture of being a professional athlete? High school at the latest. From that point on their life is on a track, and is not likely to be derailed by someone saying hey you could face these health problems later on, and NO ONE is telling them that. Just the opposite the NFL has covered it up.
