It’s wrong to wish people dead

I had this attitude 20 years ago. I no longer do. I’ve come to realize that there are certain rich fucks who are actively harming humanity directly (Hitler, Kissinger, Reagan, world leaders who send the poor to useless wars). Even the rich fucks that just hoard money are actively robbing from the poor to do so, and some of those people die as a result.

How many people does a person have to kill before they are too far gone to save, and are just evil? How many levels of indirection does it take before they wouldn’t be considered evil? What happens if a person indirectly kills millions of people? Is that still far enough to call them evil?

These are the questions you should ask yourself when you try to plot out your own moral compass.
