Not saying it’s ever good to assassinate anyone, buuut, considering what it takes to aquire large sums of bloody money like that, maybe with some of them a little oopsie can be overlooked . . .
Most people agree Hitler should have been assassinated. If you do you are already onboard with assassinations, we are just arguing where you draw the line.
If you are okay with killing a soldier fighting for a leader due to the leader’s actions or morals but not the leader because that would be an “assassination” you have essentially fallen for ruling class propaganda anyway.
What if I’m not okay with either?
I completely disagree with the death penalty and instead want to put these losers in jail. If that’s not an option, sure, use the least amount of force possible to solve the problem and prevent further violence, but extrajudicial killings should never be your first option.
It’s fine to not support any death - ever. Don’t sweat that.
There’s a skit on a Fugees album where it essentially says: “Let a MF kick you one time then he’ll kick you one time. Let a MF kick you two times then he gonna kick you two times… but if you rip off his MFing legs then there ain’t gonna be no more kicking.”
I think some very tired people have got to the leg removing stage.
I don’t think people are celebrating because of who he was, but because of what he represents to them.
A user in another post wrote that denials went from single digits to 20% when he became CEO.
If that’s true, then people are celebrating both for who he was AND what he represents.
