i don't think anyone on lemmy is simply bloodlusting. The CEO getting murdered just shows how sick people are of the current system lol
People don't necessarily actually want more murders to happen, they just want the system to be fixed. Unfortunately, it was so bad it got to this.
Now, murder is bad and it's usually bad to go vigilante justice, however in this scenario it's preferable over the much bigger quantity of deaths and suffering the CEO had on his hands.
Then you'd need a majority in democracy to vote in their interests. But they voted for Trump, a man who wants to get rid of the ACA and impose senseless tariffs on all countries while cutting down on regulation that keeps people save and installing his own unhinged lackeys. Harsh rhetoric, but I want to say the American people have voted against their interest, and if political pressure was there change would be possible. I like that this issue is getting attention but I strongly question people calling for more murder and chaos.
Problem is a lot of people, maybe even the majority on Lemmy, don't seem satisfied with just one CEO. They're calling for more violence, more vigilante murders. That is a slippery slope for obvious reasons, and requires a lot of faith in humanity to pick the right targets.
Where do I stop with the murder? Whats the criteria to be evil and deserve to die? Who decides what justice is? I agree that its a slippery slope and its why I think self justice like this is more self righteousness than anything
