I haven't killed tens of thousands of sick people so I'm safe.
Someone might decide that something else you did is wrong.
That could happen any day but how is that fact relevant?
Do you want to live in a society where anyone can kill you because they think you’re a bad person?
We already do. You can already buy a gun, get it the same day, and straight up shoot someone with minimal barriers. What are you on about? Children are sacrificed every day and now that a CEO is dead its a huge problem?
I would absolutely love to live in a different world where everything is marijuana, video games and puppies. But we don't live there, which is why the work class must remain armed no matter the pretext.
I could get shot in a school shooting that wasnt prevented because despite the outrage of the Democratic party no one wanted to impliment perimeter fences, check points, metal detectors, or building a police station next door or inside every school of the nation. It would still be true that the working class must remain armed.
We live in the shitter multiverse, and it is not a good place to be. Accept this fact of life.
No, but I don't want to live in a society where people in power just let people in need die
That's all of human history and will never change.
However, now that the untouchable monsters that run things are getting a taste, things are just a tiny bit better.
That's today. That's our current reality. That's the society that I already live in, because I'm a horrible, nasty, evil person who rides a bicycle to get places.
I'm in Madison, Wisconsin, too, so it's rather fresh in my mind that anyone can kill me just randomly out of the blue.
Any idiot in a car can kill me at any time, because he's getting road rage. I'm living in Europe, grew up in the 80s where nuclear war was a very real danger that could break out any moment, vaporizing all the cities. Even though we were allies of the US, highways were prepared to be outfitted with nuclear mines so the Russians couldn't roll all over Western Europe. We have a war right now next to our countries which could turn into WW3 at any time. A close friend of mine is Bosnian, she has seen the fighting in the Balkans few years agom
People kill each other all the time, because they consider each other bad persons. I just refuse to live in fear.
And the longer I live, the more I believe in violence as a legitimate defense. If someone shot Putin tomorrow, I would be happy. If someone had shot Hitler in the 30s the would would probably have been a better place.
So where is the line that divides killing someone is a good thing vs a bad thing? I used to believe it is always evil, but I can't anymore.
