I’m not celebrating any of this, to be very clear. It’s more of a grim satisfaction. We departed ages ago from whether it’s right or wrong. They’re fascists. And they’re grossly incompetent. I am not upset by news that those doing vast and needless harm to innocent people are victim of their own incompetence and negligence. I’ll admit to some schadenfreude and move on with my life.
I find the detention, shooting, and killing of innocent lives to be abhorrent. I ain’t going to cry for the people perpetrating this violence, and I wish violence upon them. If they die, so be it. 1 less person killing innocent lives.
We celebrated when Hitler died. When bad people die, it’s not a bad thing.
This is a moral roadblock that really irks me, because those in power certainly do not care who dies and who lives. If our “leaders” don’t care, why should we? It’s an inherent disadvantage to our chances at getting out of this mess and eventually doing everything we can to fix the planet and better the world for ALL of humanity.
And yes, it’s a slippery slope, I know. I would certainly prefer it to be different. But treehugging and flag-waving and chanting only do anything when your voice is acknowledged by the power structure.
E: I hope you aren’t scared off Lemmy by the opposition you have faced. Please don’t leave!
Even if. We shouldn’t celebrate the death of another. Don’t you find that just a tiny bit wrong?
Nope.
I save my empathy for people who actually have empathy of their own.
No. Not for these people, not even a tiny bit. I’ll sleep like a baby.
