imoldgreeeg@aussie.zone 1 week agoI have found the response fascinating. Because of how I curate and limit my news I do tend to follow the type of people who are not inclined to have empathy for the victim here. But it’s much wider than that.
And on tv shows I think Scrubs is the only mainstream one I can think of that regularly touched on the financial aspects of health care.

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
