Well my mom and dad made a lot of money and I've never needed to consider doing something like joining the military or have the audacity to be an ignorant product of my hyper-propagandized crumbling society.

    That's why I said that he got where he is partially due to the material reality he grew up in. To me every death is sad even if who died did evil, but that's because I attribute a person's decisions a whole lot more than just "partially" to the material reality. But I wanted to make clear that even if one doesn't share that belief it's still fucked up to react that way.
