I have zero empathy for the target but I don’t think killing is effective either.
The only way to fight powerful groups is with another powerful group. That’s why we have unions, business assocs, governments and trading blocs. The huge problem worldwide is that big business has subverted governments, meaning they are exploiting people and the world unchecked
Honestly I’m very supportive of it. I reckon he had it coming. The dude who’s been accused of the killing seems a little bit iffy, I do feel weird about supporting him particularly given he’s well off, but honestly, people in his financial position are the only ones who could afford legal representation good enough to at least hopefully not rot in prison for the rest of their lives, or cop the chair since they still have that in parts of NY
I believe I can do more good working inside systems (as a law abiding citizen) fighting to change them for the good of the masses than as a one time murderer of a single rich arsehole. But honestly, if I had no prospects, I could see myself doing something similar. And if there’s ever a large scale revolution, and people guillotining the rich, while I might not be the one doing it, I’m sure as shit going to be on the front lines cheering them on
To be clear: killing people is 100% not my style. Same reason I’d refuse to go to war no matter how hard they tried to draft me if I was born a few decades earlier. I just want to help people and hate to see people suffer, and rich people are largely about causing suffering for their own selfish gains. That goes very much against my ethics and moral alignment, so I would not be sad to see them all go
