We should be talking about this. That he's right doesn't excuse murder obviously, but we live in basically a fascist state where it's hard to get attention on these issues without extreme action. We should be talking about that too. That's why Musk bought Twitter in part, because of the volume things like BLM and the Women's March and Me Too made. By tamping down on that, restricting it, and driving people away, it gets noticed less.metsmarathon wrote: ↑Tue Dec 10, 2024 7:58 amthis.Fman99 wrote: ↑Tue Dec 10, 2024 7:17 am I hate the in-depth media scrutiny that high profile murderers get. It just perpetuates the idea that this is one way a sick person can get people to pay attention to them. It's exploitative and gross and I won't be a part of it. I felt the same way about the people who committed the murders at the Boston Marathon. Their names should be buried away with the victims.
the assassination was clearly about striking at this one guy, but also at the health insurance industry as a whole. that we're all talking about how shitty health insurance companies are even moreso than we are about the murder itself means that this dude got his way. honestly, you might consider him a terrorist.
The same day some scumbag CEO died a kid was killed mere miles away for not speaking English. Two kindergarteners were shot in a California school. All the same day. You hear almost nothing about those, especially in the big news sources, but I need to hear about the CEO killer's goodreads reviews?
