    Oh, he condemns murder. He just points out how much blood is on the hands of companies vs the lone gunman. I figure it won’t be long before LW stops federating with the influx of users who left LW to go to other instances where people can actually express protected speech. /c/news at LW is inherently incompatible with free speech and free press ideals. Hoping y’all start a new community elsewhere that allows proper discourse.

      I mean was there any doubt that what happened to the CEO was murder? Like whether or not it was justified it still was murder. I’m not shedding a tear for it though, too busy reflecting on the thousands dead from his denial of healthcare.

      The issue I take is that when we abstract murder by a few degrees then we just call it business. The CEO can sign a form that will result in the deaths of 1500 people and it’s fine but you hire a hitman and you’re guilty. At what point is the line drawn?

      If I construct a rube goldberg machine that results in a gun being fired then am I responsible? What if that machine drops a pachinko puck that results in the gun being fired 50% of the time? What if I muck about with someone’s food and increase their risk of cancer by 4%?

      This is a genuine question I’d love an answer to.

      The European mods actively said they don’t agree with free speech and their countries laws don’t allow any kind of advocation of violence. I got banned from world.

      I hope Luigi is just the first. These parasites have it coming.
