That's defeatism. The first step to get anything is to believe.

You can't 'thoughts and prayers' your way out of capitalism either.

And you will find that out when your rates go up because all of the insurance companies will hire massive security teams to protect their executives and pass that on to you.

Well then maybe Kaczynski was up to something with his bombing campaign. You can't take out an entire security team with a gun.

But you can kill innocent people.

Because I don't know what a computer store owner or a secretary or a graduate student did to deserve having a bomb go off in their hands.

And people here seem increasingly willing to let innocent people get hurt or killed in this new war against CEOs. I find it really, really disturbing.

Me too tbh. I really don't wish to abandon lemmy as I left reddit, since I prefer a federated system to it but all these posts are making me think. I just have this ethical principle where murder in most cases is bad and don't like seeing violence being advocated.

Meh it's just skill issue. Car accident kills innocent people all the time and nobody's blaming driving.

Car accident kills innocent people all the time and nobody’s blaming car drivers for it.

What the fuck are you even talking about? What exactly do you think anti-drunk driving laws are about, targeting Chevrolet for their negligence?

Well then there you go, you can bomb shit, you just shouldn't be doing it drunk.
