  • I wanna float an unlikely, probably very dumb thought that I had - if I was a foreign adversary who had spent years and significant resources fucking with America. . . If I wanted to to start a collapse - maybe something like this would be the domino that would start all the rest falling. Especially just after an angry, contentious election, with lots of the left feeling helpless and angry. This would be a fairly cheap action against a target the left could universally hate - maybe it could topple that domino. Maybe it could just promote division.

    Like I say, I’m probably being dumb - but you gotta question everything. Loads of people responding to this incident are like “Yeah, it’s happening! Eat the rich!”. I don’t entirely disagree with that attitude but you gotta wonder who benefits from turbo charging political division in America?


  • Tbh I feel like some CEOs do more damage than modern Nazis. Though it’s hard to compare a shit burger against a turd sandwich.

    But it shouldn’t be okay for anyone to take out their killing fantasies against anyone. No matter how justified this particular killing might seem, this shit is a fuckin slippery slope.

    We live in a society, that means we follow rules - even if there’s no enforcement. Rules like politeness, not grabbing whatever we want, not killing whoever offends us. Stuff like that. I’m not going to weep bitter tears of grief for this dead exploitative fuck, but if we let this stuff get normalised then it’s gonna be the KKK lynching people and mobs necklacing alleged sex offenders in the streets. And then none of our families are safe.
