Meh, I don't wish death on anyone, but that doesn't mean I have to be sad that a shitty person died.

this isn't complicated

the social contract basically boils down to, you at a baseline do right by me and in return I do the same for you

assholes like this and other rich fucks try to game this system for profit by literally harming parts of our lives via loopholes

when ass fucks say lets hurt person ‘insert something that has no impact on anything’ like skin color or sexuality that is wrong

when people talk about wishing death on people that are literally fucking with our lives it should obviously not be the same

whether tanking a video game falls into that bucket is nuanced but people like the united health fuck are easily fair game

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), and if they died and their death prevented more suffering, that's a good thing for humanity. 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.

Wait, why do you hate lemmy for this? I think who you actually hate are humans. Reddit and all the other modern social media platforms have the same issues, because they too have humans.
