    The worst thing about this guy getting beaten up was that it had nothing to do with his actions at DOGE. It was just some random muggers.

            That’s fine, I’m just saying the “shouldn’t have been out that late and was probably a criminal anyway” is eerily close to what is said when people are victim blaming. Better just say that he deserved it for being a shit person

              It’s not a matter of “he’s probably a criminal anyway,” he’s something far worse that a criminal. There no “probably” about it. He’s a psychopathic traitor who actively, enthusiastically attacked/ damaged/ destroyed/ stole, etc. extremely valuable and sensitive agencies and data, and he deserves life in prison.

                And another one in the same thread

                wouldn’t be surprised if he propositioned the children.

                Like that’s just making up shit to justify things, similar to how often there’s that “why was the black guy out that late, probably selling drugs” shit. Why bother when you can just point to the actual shit this guy has done

                  He’s a psycho traitor scumbag, of course he was out doing psycho traitor scumbag stuff. Every moment that he breathes, he’s doing something to hurt every person in the country. We have no obligation to treat him like he’s a decent person who deserves the benefit of the doubt.

                  MAGA Nazis fully invent the most heinous lies about good people, speculating about what this traitor was doing is perfectly acceptable.

            Buy don’t you see the circumstances of the situation matters? A black man being beat up by police on his way home late one night after buying diapers for his toddler, sounds pretty awful and unjust right? Well turns out it was Clarence Thomas. Cool he got beat, but still makes it an unjust and disgusting crime that needs to be punished. Especially when they thought it was just some random easy target.

              Alright, that’s fair.

              For me I think it’s more that nothing about the official story makes sense. It seems much more likely he was being a shithead and got punched while shopping. What he was shopping for should be largely irrelevant.

              It’s similar to other conservative hypocrisies.

      He took all of our personal data and gave it to plantir so they can destroy our democracy and terrorize brown people. He was probably out soliciting underage girls for prostitution when he got knocked out. On a karma scale he deserves to get knocked out every day for the rest of his life.

          Who cares? The MAGA Nazis would just make up the worst story possible, like the attack on Paul Pelosi, then just spread it as truth, and happily believe it.

          So we can invent the truth, too. MAGA Morons always forget that two can play this game.

          Because we should have let Sherman burn Dixie to the ground and hanged every Nazi. That’s why they tolerate them.

          You can’t rehabilitate someone who thinks owning another human as property is okay. Or someone “just following orders,” driving trains of victims to their industrialized death.

          That thought process is just not compatible with modern society, and needs to be excised. If you let any bits remain it’s just going to spread it’s stupidity like a cancer.

          Careful now, if your head gets any bigger you’ll risk getting all top heavy and falling off your high horse, and that would be undignified!

          Seriously, why is celebrating people standing up to a truly abhorrent actor somehow problematic for you? Even the most thoughtless argument in it’s favor, that “fascists might be dissuaded by seeing there are actual consequences for their actions”, is preeeetty goddamn valid. I think you might want to unpack why you’re more eager to defend the “dIgNiTy” of a fascist POS than celebrate the introduction of positive reinforcement in said fascist’s life. Is it really important to you that this shitstain’s honor be defended? You don’t think the fascists don’t have apologists enough already, you just have to throw your support in with their cause?

      There is likely no point in trying to be nice to such a person. His mindset probably sees being nice as a weakness to exploit. Ofcourse you might argue that making fun of him being beaten should be above a person who is not as simple as him, that I might agree with. But not doing this for the sake of being nice to him? Nah.

          I don’t think so either. I mean why would I spend my energy to do anything positive for a person who seems completely fine with destroying thousands’ of people’s livelihoods and yet keep a cocky attitude about it. The nickname that seems to be the product of a college level fraternity brain is just the icing on the top but very much helps me form this opinion too. The most I will ever do is stay neutral.
