This is a genuine question.

I have a hard time with this. My righteous side wants him to face an appropriate sentence, but my pessimistic side thinks this might have set a great example for CEOs to always maintain a level of humanity or face unforseen consequences.

P.S. this topic is highly controversial and I want actual opinions so let’s be civil.

And if you’re a mod, delete this if the post is inappropriate or if it gets too heated.

    Gotta love Redneckistan centric comments thinking everyone is part of their dumbo country. But if you truly believe MAGGATs being sympathetic here, just remember that they just elected someone who’s just like the guy who got murdered, with the help of another such guy controlling the narrative on one of the largest social media sites, with the help of a country that uses botnets to flood the rest of social media to give you this cozy impression of wholesome civil war.

        Well, my aunt is mentally disabled in some facility so I doubt it. Not that it would add any sort of point to your “argument”, since none of those people are on Lemmy.

        Nice ad hominem though. … So let’s review. You thought it was a bunch of ‘hamas dick suckers’ supporting the shooter. You were wrong. You doubled down. And now you’re bringing up more unrelated shit and tossing more insults. I’ve been civil, but you’re a dumbass basement dwelling boot licking pos. You’re not the moral one here. Go clutch your pearls elsewhere dipshit.

        Nice projection though.

          “projection” the ol’ “I’m rubber you’re glue” comeback. Seems I hit the nail right on the head. You’re not as clever as you tell yourself.

          Maybe go visit your aunt, that callous “some facility” makes my bones ache. You should keep up with those you love. Or was that a bad faith attempt to make me feel bad and your aunt is just fine? The world may never know. Only you can know in that black little heart of yours.

            Seems more like this isn’t the first time someone called you out on your bullshit. I also love how you project further, resorting to an ad hominem, while ignoring the actual point that none of the mare on Lemmy, which simply takes apart your entire “argument”.

            Maybe go visit your aunt, that callous “some facility” makes my bones ache.

            Why? Do you generally go and visit strangers and claim to love them? I don’t.

            Or was that a bad faith attempt to make me feel bad

            Hmm… 🤔 The projections continue I guess.

              Its cute how you’re still trying. And if she’s a stranger why bring her up? So it appears my second statement was correct. You weaponized your aunt in an internet argument in a desperate attempt to gain the moral high ground. Congratulations on showing your cold dead heart. And me pointing out how infantile your comebacks are isn’t more projection. So what, you can throw around insults but as ssoon as someone hits back THEY’RE projecting? Give me break. I had your number before I even commented. Every comment just exposes your hypocrisy. But go on, keep on digging your hole. Go on, tell me how I’m projecting. You’re so predictable.

              And no, this isn’t the first time I’ve taken out the trash. Go outside please

                Y-You did… lol You’re the one talking for several comments about some strawman MAGA aunt, as if that’s somehow relevant to people on Lemmy.

                You weaponized your aunt in an internet argument in a desperate attempt to gain the moral high ground.

                I replied to your MAGA aunty claim and corrected your falsehood.

                Congratulations on showing your cold dead heart.

                To quote yourself: “a bad faith attempt to make me feel bad” Again, projection. lol

                And me pointing out how infantile your comebacks are isn’t more projection.

                It clearly is because there’s no comeback needed for such “infantile” attempts at creating a nonexistent argument that completely fly by the actual topic about Lemmy extremists. You’re literally just deflecting at this point in an attempt to drive it further away from the point of my comment because you know full well that you failed in discrediting me, and now you can’t do anything but double and triple down. Pathetic.

                Go on, tell me how I’m projecting. You’re so predictable.

                You: *projects* Me: *points out projection* You: *projects some more* “Go oN, tElL Me hOw i’m pRoJeCtInG. yOu’rE So pReDiCtAbLe.”

                🤡

                  That’s a lot of words for you to say “my initial position was wrong and dumb.” Get better material

                    I hope one day you’ll seek professional help for your delusions, before you end up hurting someone, or yourself. Have a good one.
