It appears that in every thread about this event there is someone calling everyone else in the thread sick and twisted for not proclaiming that all lives are sacred and being for the death of one individual.

It really is a real life trolley problem because those individuals are not seeing the deaths caused by the insurance industry and not realizing that sitting back and doing nothing (i.e. not pulling the lever on the train track switch) doesn’t save lives…people are going to continue to die if nothing is done.

Taking a moral high ground and stating that all lives matter is still going to costs lives and instead of it being a few CEOs it will be thousands.

    Do I really need to explain that not voting and believing you can always just shoot your way to a more equitable society is exactly what those in power want? As long as a third of society stays home and the third with the most guns keeps voting for more hellhole, we’re all fucked.

    That’s why we’re stuck in this capitalist meat grinder to begin with.
