Why is it terrorism when rich people are killed?

[–] MehBlah@lemmy.world 10 points 6 days ago

Cause they only care when rich scum are terrorized.

[–] JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 8 points 6 days ago

Who controls the present now controls the past.

Terrorism is supposed to be the dogmatic or ideologically motivated killing of civilians, often by those who are willing to die in the process. It's terror inducing because it could seemingly happen anywhere at any time to any one, and it's a lot easier to cause harm to others when you're suicidal and not trying to get away with it.

Of course, that's not how it's routinely used, or perhaps was ever really used by anyone except academics.

I love this place. Post anything about this on reddit and it's likely to be removed if it gets too positive or the bots downvote it.

[–] Critical_Thinker@lemm.ee 25 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Reddit is a place to promote product. This isn't product. Give it time and big lemmy servers will turn into reddit, but for now we get to enjoy a safe space.

[–] Zetta@mander.xyz 16 points 6 days ago

Thankfully, because of the way Lemmy is built, we will forever have smaller communities that don't turn into garbage like that.

[–] granolabar@kbin.melroy.org 14 points 6 days ago

Reddit let this thing run first week as they couldn't moderate the sentiment this strong but looks like after that they cracked down.

Lemmy world news sub was suppressing this very aggressively during that time.

Mods dropped in in unrelated sub threatening to remove the discussion if we didn't keep it "civil"

Some clown ass behavior.

[–] humanspiral@lemmy.ca 46 points 6 days ago (2 children)

There's 2 possible reasons to have "military" escort. either...

  1. They must protect the perp from assassination.
  2. They must prevent mob from liberating him.

Ain't no one assassinating him.

That's why they all had armor and he didn't. It is number 2.

Brian Thompson pleaded guilty to drunk driving in 2017, the same month he became CEO.

[–] Emerald@lemmy.world 21 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Damnnn that is one interpretation of drunk driving. "officer, you don't understand, drunk driving putting everyones life and freedom at risk is what makes us human

[–] Zron@lemmy.world 12 points 6 days ago

Buying a second house for your estranged wife is very normal. I’ve got tons of very real, normal human friends that buy their wives second houses because divorce would cost more than a second house.

The person is very human, yes.

No wonder he thought he knew better than doctors - his penmanship was for shit.

[–] Phoenicianpirate@lemm.ee 5 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I write in block letters and he is a shit writer.

[–] Manzas@lemdro.id 2 points 5 days ago

I write in cursive enchanting table and I couldn't decipher that.

All they’re doing is making him look like a badass. They need enough cops to suppress Superman if he turned bad.

The managerial class really is terrified, huh?

If the cops arrested Superman it wouldn't be because he went bad.

[–] beefbot@lemmy.blahaj.zone 20 points 6 days ago

Jesus on his way to be crucified because he spoke up for poor people

Trying to make themselves look like they’ve done something amazing.

[–] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 8 points 6 days ago

they made someone look amazing allright

[–] vga@sopuli.xyz 17 points 6 days ago (2 children)

I’m gonna steel man this one and state that those officers are there to protect him more than protect others from him. That’s why school shooters have fewer officers escorting them, because who the fuck cares if somebody murders those monsters.

[–] TheFriar@lemm.ee 13 points 6 days ago

…they’re upset everyone is cheering for this guy. Are they worried a CEO or 1% is going to shoot him? lol everyone else loves him.

[–] jballs@sh.itjust.works 7 points 6 days ago (1 children)

It's all for show. You can tell because that's the mayor of NYC right behind him.

Why are they doing this for an INNOCENT person???

[–] billwashere@lemmy.world 4 points 5 days ago

Jesus what I wouldn’t give to see Trump in that orange suit flanked by all of those cops.
