I don’t disagree with you at all. I think the corporate class ought to be held responsible. However, I’m not a fan of individuals being the judge, jury, and executioner. Part of the power of the Nuremberg trials, for example, was the exposing of evil and proving the individuals were tied to it. It would’ve been quite different had the Allied forces simple shot the Nazi leaders dead without any sort of trial.

Shindo66@lemmy.world 4 days agoI totally get where you’re coming from, but let me play devils advocate: when their policy is to deny and dispose which results in the death of so many people, ruins the livelihoods of so many people. When we know the majority support universal Healthcare and we know it would save the lives of like 172000 people every year. The ceo may not kill people with a gun, but he is killing with the pen. When they make decisions that they know will kill people but will also raise the stock price, then what is justified?

Social murder is what you’re describing. Through policy, red tape, and just wealth inequality people die who didn’t have to.
