    You’re extrapolating your own meaning from it, you’ve had 3 separate people telling you “I don’t take it to mean this” and yet each time you’ve tried to tell them how they mean it this way.

    You’re pulling info that confirms your bias and ignoring actually testimony from multiple sources otherwise.

    You can’t reason away other people’s thought processes to say they mean this, the best you can do is say, I took it as this, because of this, and I don’t like it.















  • It sounds rough to say, but I genuinely think this is part of a new American revolution, the people have had enough. It shows, I’m not saying we should go out and kill execs, but I am saying I wouldn’t be surprised if something like that happens.

    Let me ask counter OP, say a full out rebellion occurred against the corporate oligarch class, ten years from now we have had a bloody and violent change from people who felt they had no other recourse. It was unpleasant but now we are in a society where the general public is much better off and it was generally remembered as a “war on corporate corruption” and the rich are much less willing to tread on their fellow man

    In this pretend scenario the killers are now labeled freedom fighters, and public opinion is that it was a necessary overthrow of an unjust system. How would you realistically feel about the man now? I believe it’s all about societal context, and and the line between justice and a slaying does tend to blur after a certain, very extreme point has been crossed.

    Now In reality, has that point been crossed yet? I don’t know, that’s yet to be determined, but I feel we will know sooner or later

    To be fair, noone allowed it, it just kind of happened. And this is just kind of something that happens after things reach a tipping point in society, it’s happened throughout our entire history in one form or another and will be happening all the way into the year 50 million assuming we make it that long

    Sorry, I just don’t think it’s him, different backback straps and pockets where there weren’t any before, this is turning into another Boston bomber misidentification. But this time it’s the NYPD instead of reddit making the mistake
