The comment “E good for you cos them beg you normally you no go give” is another example of how online conversations can twist basic morality into something unrecognizable. A man lent someone his own money, yet instead of holding the borrower accountable for refusing to pay back, some people are celebrating the dishonesty like it’s a justified punishment.
This mindset is dangerous. It normalizes fraud, encourages entitlement, and blames the victim for expecting the bare minimum—repayment of a loan. Borrowing is not gifting, and deceiving someone who helped you isn’t “smart,” it’s manipulative and shameful.
Excusing wrongdoing because “he wouldn’t have given if she begged” is nothing but an attempt to glorify bad behaviour. We can’t complain about a broken society while applauding the very actions that break it.
