    You’ll have to be more specific about what blowing up the train maps to in real life before I can tell you whether or not doing so would also kill a shit ton of people.

    But to keep it in metaphor, there are also innocent people riding the train and blowing it up would kill them, too.

      Kill your local senator

        Yeah, if you made a habit of doing that we’d end to with more deaths and a lower quality of life overall.

          Current US senators are not improving your life.

            Most of them, sure. But killing them with any kind of regularity would have a number of knock-on effects that would severely decrease many people’s quality of life.

            If your friend has a brain tumor, you don’t point a gun to their head and shoot it out. You find brain surgeons and have them remove it under controlled conditions. Supposing you can’t find a brain surgeon, it would still be better to learn brain surgery yourself and do a careful and thorough job than it would be to just shoot your friend in the head and hope for the best.

          You say that as though you’re the arbiter of what’s “left” and what’s not.

          Call us whatever you like. We don’t vote for strike blocking genocide supporting candidates.

              I hope your strike blocking, genocide supporting candidate magically results in more workers rights and less genocide.
