the bullet etchings alone make it a work of art. He picked out the absolute most unloved plutocrat in america. Its very much a masterwork execution at a time when everybody wanted a reprieve from the trump media circus.
Timing: 10/10
Execution: 9/10
Target 10/10
Style: 10/10
We live in a country this happens every day I would take a CEO death over a Sandy Hook every time. I wish shootings weren't as common but it is what it is.
Too bad that's not trump :(
With my limited view from Germany, thank God that it is not Trump. Presidents come and go, Democrats and Republicans swap places every now and then, but at the end, the US stays an oligarchy. By killing Trump you don't change much, you might create a public outrage, but it's like popping a pimple without addressing the acne. It might lead to an even bigger divide within the working class - those who were fooled into voting for Trump vs Democrats vs disappointed, disillusioned Democrats. One of the problems of the election was that not enough left leaning people saw the Democrats as much different from the Republicans, and they are right. Killing a politician would just distract from the problem even more. Just think of how much momentum Trump (and his movement) gained from the assassination attempt.
Here, for once in months, when we see tiktoks or other clips from the public, we cannot even tell immediately where they lean politically - we just see that everyone is fed up with the same crap. Now both left and right, united, experience how the media lies to them and tells a skewed narrative. This is amazing. I sincerely hope it will not die, I hope this will grow and continue to spread like a cancer through society.
It is sad that it took the murder of a person and a young man's freedom for this.
No no, I didn't say I wish for him to be shot - that's for separate discussion - I just wish he was the most unloved. Daydreaming...
The key is to publicly wish for his death in a way that no person could actually carry out. Then it's not a death threat. Wish for him to get cancer. Wish for him to have a heart attack. Wish for him to die from auto-erotic asphyxiation. Wish for him to be struck by lightning. Wish for a giant sinkhole to open up directly beneath his feet, swallow him whole, and close up behind him, as if Hell itself reached up to finally claim him, the Devil finally collecting on some contract signed long ago.
It's not a death threat if you ask God or the Devil to do the dirty work for you!
I wish 10,000 dolphins dived into his asshole and he exploded with his entrails covering all of congress.
Exactly!
Oh, my bad, sorry! I'm with you on this one.
I don't know. Trump is special. I'm hoping more "divine smiting' for him. For a man that so seems to have the Devil's charisma behind him, what more fitting end could there be than to die by lightning strike?
Him being forced to actually work at McDonald's to pay for his own rent and food.
But I will accept prison the rest of his life as a consolation prize.
Walking the plank or hanged by the city wall maybe?
I'd like to see him kerb stomped for about 35 minutes. If anyone is taking requests.
Don't give up hope. He's had 3 attempts already, hoping #4 is a better shot
If we were the principled society we pretend to others that we are, we would prefer 100 ceos to 1 Sandy Hook. CEO's would be all for it as well.
But capitalism doesnt breed a lot of impulses to sacrifice for the greater good. "eff those peasants" is practically explicitely baked into it.
Personally I would appreciate the irony of school shooters instead going after gun manufacturer executives. I like my justice delivered ironically.
Apart from the fact that he was caught by sitting in a public place and getting recognized, rather than laying low and staying out of public view for a while.
Assuming it's actually Luigi. Not sure there's even definitive proof yet.
