I'm all for better climate policy, but "because peaceful protest doesn't work" is a pretty bad justification. My peaceful protest to mandate wearing a colander in public won't work, but that doesn't mean that violent protest is justified.

Equating the climate crisis to forcing people to wear a colander is beyond braindead.

While the surface level story of severance is annoying since it doesn't like to give answers (so far), it also criticizes workplace culture and work in general which makes it satisfying to me.

If you want to consistently block ads, you can't use a chromium based browser since they don't support ublock origin

Sorry, but usa is indeed very much more evil than most other countries. E.g. overthrowing democratically elected leaders in other countries, committing war crimes, taking the side of other countries invading others, etc. All countries are not equally bad and usa is one of the worst, especially with Trump in power.

No. People should boycott all companies which operates in an evil country. There exist plenty of ethical companies that aren't from usa.

What browser and adblocker?

Punching people is illegal in general. If it was that easy, there wouldn't exist any class struggle.

Wasn't it something more similar to "saying that you don't care about privacy because you have nothing to hide is like saying that you don't care about free speech because you have nothing to say"?

People are saying that this is a low percentage, but I think it could be considered high. Murder (i.e. not necessarily killing a human in general) is classically and in general a really bad thing. Even if people don't care for the parasitic company's CEO and might be glad that he's dead, I could imagine that their gut feeling would tell them to not consider an assassination acceptable.

Both of these posts are complaining about their accounts being banned, which happened because they (at least one of them) posted low effort questions and therefore got lots of downvotes and got automatically banned by a system meant to ban bots and trolls. The irony is that reddit has major problems with their automatic moderation which you yourself as an user is completely powerless to controll, e.g. recently when a massive amount of nsfw subreddits were banned for being unmoderated which they later admitted was erroneous.

It would be preferable if we didn't have to murder CEOs to stop them from destroying our lives but they are sort of forcing our hands here.
