    That’s some prime cherry picking. lmao Just ignore the outcry and the consequence of your statement behind it. Alright, I guess we just go around and murder everyone who we want to now. Seems like that’s what you all want.

      These aren’t mutually exclusive.

      Our western judicial system is helping to define a group of people for whom it is acceptable to murder and a group for whom it is not. If you want to kill a vagrant on a subway, you’re likely going to get away without serious consequences. If you kill a CEO, probably not.

        Oh? Where’s the demonstrations against Luigi & for the murdered CEO? You pulled this one to be a counterexample for Luigi’s case, but the reactions are clearly the opposite. There was a large public outcry in your example, only cronies like Trump commended it. With Luigi we have a somewhat large amount of public support, or at least a very loud one, and officials condone the act.

        You’re not just comparing apples with oranges, but you’re also arguing that it should be okay to murder both when you come to the defense of Luigi. Either you justify murder, or you don’t. You’re just playing the same dirty games that people like Trump play in order to justify that it is okay to murder certain people over others. Be better.

          In every major newspaper and corporately financed podcast on the content. We are bombarded by Atlantic headlines and CBS News Updates with wailing anchors and op-ed writers denouncing Luigi from the top of their lungs.

          Of course not. Poor people and rich people are entirely different species of people.

            That’s just the establishment telling you that murder is bad, which is not even wrong and a direct response to the people who glorify the murder. Maybe try to listen.

            Of course not. Poor people and rich people are entirely different species of people.

            And just like the other guy going the Hitler route of dehumanizing people. Please hear yourself talk.

              They weren’t making up headlines like this for George Floyd or Ibrahim Nasrallah. Hell, they weren’t writing headlines for this Jamal Khashoggi, and DC journalists generally liked that guy.

              the Hitler route

              Hitler, famous for his criticism of the private health insurance industry.

                What’s with Ibrahim Nasrallah? He’s not dead. Or did you meant to simp for Hassan Nasrallah? Wouldn’t surprise me to be honest. lol

                George Floyd caused plenty of articles about police brutality in the US, so I’m really not sure what the fuck you are talking about.

                No, he’s famous for dehumanizing others in order to make it okay to murder them. Since you’re just arguing in bad faith at this point I think we’re done. Have fun radicalizing & instigating, hopefully you’ll put your money where your mouth is and take action yourself so that it will be over sooner rather than later.

                  Is that his claim to fame? I remember a bit more.
