this sounds controversial but is actually the right thing to do, except the mass shooting part, reserve that for the c-suite, not the every day wage slaver
sometimes i imagine a world in which organized autonomous activists take out these capitalists and it really feels within reach
Mass shootings are never a solution, also not in C-suites. I don’t think anyone should be ‘taken out’.
Oil execs?
Shouldn’t be killed
Guess we'll just die then
I can’t believe I’m arguing about whether there are people that should be killed or not. Of course not! Killing oil executives is not the only way to stop fossil fuel from being used. You’re a bad person if you’re seriously proposing this.
They own our politicians so our options are actually very limited. I won't be pulling the trigger but there's little doubt in my mind that they will not stop until we kill them.
Their actions will bring about the death of millions and a collapse of our ecosystem, so it's not as simple as saying every life is sacred no matter what that person choses to do with it. Would you go back in time to kill Hitler, because future generations will be asking themselves the same question about oil execs.
C-suites also are someone's husbands, wives, sons and daughters.
Depends if they are ideologically driven or just replaceable puppets. Most are of the second kind.
Israel would love to have some martyrs offered for their cause to whine about.
I recall an article about an Amazon employee going mad about his working conditions and shooting other workers in the warehouse. Don't think he directed his anger correctly.
Grim, but technically accurate, to say nothing of whether such actions are right or wrong.
