It’s nice to meet all you. I am she/her, can speak Toki Pona and English (non-natively), and locatable on Reddit as MozartWasARed. The links at https://discord.gg/sEuSSDz6TQ and https://www.deviantart.com/triagonal/art/My-copyright-policy-and-the-impact-it-extends-into-906668443 are pertinent to me.

The scary part is, supposing he wasn’t the murderer and the actual one is out there, under normal circumstances, people could post wanted signs to see if someone might find this “actual” killer, but we aren’t under normal circumstances right now, with our circumstances being ones where the turnout for finds would be low in a world where wanted signs of random billionaires hang in random places in New York, with Brian Thompson actually not being a big opponent of society, having come from poor, rural Iowa and wanting to reform the business but lagging due to hoops (only to, then, be killed by someone he had not had under his insurance to begin with).
Genuine question, but supposing we were to consider this theory, why would there also, one, be complaints about the cops parading him around as a victory, and two, people saying Luigi was a hero?
Whether you love or hate cops, they are not stupid. I’m sure if there was even an ounce of suggestion that they got the wrong guy, the cops would quietly decide not to be so smug about it.
And to those who side with him, he’s either a hero/idol or he didn’t do anything. Pick one. I myself pick the third choice.
Also, of note, it’s quite a coincidence they found the guy, then found out his name, and then found out his wealthy upbringing, evidenced by the fact he was trying to be as low profile as possible at the time, which would’ve curbed the ability to do all of that in reverse order. If he wasn’t the killer, that’s like firing a bullseye in the dark.
Do you want to get excommunicated and ghosted? Exalting a living non-Catholic socialist who committed murder is how to do it.
Or… maybe, just maybe, people can have the opinions they want and have their reasons for them.
The idea I have to consider my parents’ role as my parents undermined if they did something scam-ish is arguably appalling.
This is turning into a collective shame kind of culture.
Not to mention one did their act in NYC and fled to suburban Pennsylvania while the other had to deal with police from a far more mundane environment. People who think the comparison can be used to paint police intentions (as if they’re even a single body like some army of droids and not individuals who have free will to show up) are just sad, it would be like saying “the 1918 plague was not as widely reported or is as known as the smallpox plague, therefore it killed less or was less a priority”. People are sadly disproportionate, that’s just how things seem to have worked in history.
“Yes to violence” is never the answer.
It’s because of the circumstances of how both were found.
Why does this surprise anyone? Doesn’t anyone know what terms of service are? This place is the same way.
Sounds like you’re saying “anyone who isn’t with me is against me.”
That would’ve happened anyways.
You say that as if voting for the lesser of two evils is by definition worth it.
Well they’re certainly not now.
A vote spent dishonestly is what I’d call a pissed away vote.
Is it not better, by definition, than spending time dishonestly?
