You’re as bad as the billionaires if you entertain the thought

I agree, and I think people don’t understand my comments or post. Claiming someone deserves to die, celebrating their death, etc., is an extremely slippery slope that can be turned right back around on you. Like I said, you have the right to say whatever the hell you want and feel however you want. If these people think all billionaires deserve to die, they are entitled to feel that way if they want.

If someone thinks you deserve cancer, hopes you get cancer, or hopes your kid dies painfully in a school shooting, they are also entitled to feel that way, in the same way that you feel that way.

Selena Gomez, Taylor Swift, Kim Kardashian, and Oprah are billionaires. One could argue, “You shouldn’t say they deserve to die.” However, you do have the right to say that; it’s the First Amendment. So yes, if you feel that Selena Gomez or Tyler Perry deserves to die because they are billionaires, then you can say it—you have that right.

At the exact same time, I have the right to say that your two young nephews deserve painful cancer, or that they deserve to die in a school shooting.

I don’t understand why the people in the comments are so upset with me. I’m just respecting everyone’s feelings and right to free speech.
