Every single step that Luigi took, right before shooting the ceo, was legal. Everything the CEO and his company did to their customers is legal.
I'm all for changing the legal system in any way that would make it harder for unwell people to get guns or insurance CEOs to stop murdering and maming their subscribers through denials. We don't have the political will to change any of that so excusing me for not shedding tears over this CEO's death.
There was a literal mass shooting at a school the same day. I feel way worse for those kids.
Being against the death penalty and bemused at conservative political consequences is not hypocrisy. Maybe stop being angry at "the left" for not shedding tears and instead propose any change that would have prevented this.
They don't know anything about "the left" any more than they know what hypocrisy is.
You're not representing my view honestly.
I'm not criticising the left for "not shedding a tear." I'm criticising them for celebrating a murderer.
Your view is that the left is celebrating this and for some reason youre completely ignoring that this is in no way a left/right split.
Go over to truth social, you can donate to Luigi's cause there, too.
Frankly, anyone who turns a class war into left/right bullshit isn't worth chatting with. Too far gone. So frankly if someone has misrepresented your view -- good? Your overall take here is upside down and from there I dont think anyone is gonna take you seriously.
The right as a whole tends to be much more accepting towards the death penalty. There's no hypocricy for me to criticise there. This is exactly what I'd expect from them.
Secondly, there are effectively no right wingers on Lemmy so criticising them here serves no purpose other than to fish for upvotes.
The left however is against death penalty in general but accepting of it when directed at people they don't like. That is being a hypocrite and that is what I'm criticising. Praising Luigi on Lemmy gets you nothing but upvotes.
I'm not reading your comment because it started with "the right."
Imma block ya know. Have a nice Christmas.
"La la la can't hear you"
How convenient.
