eh, the question was "What do you believe that most people of your political creed don't?" rather than "change my mind"

Could probably start a flame war on where I draw the line. Josef Fritzl or Albert Fish deserve/d to be put the fuck down. But then I'd consider Dahmer the other side of the line, he committed horrific crimes but he was clearly deeply mentally ill and the result of severe societal failures.

someone hoards huge amounts of items they can't possibly ever use we rightly consider them to be mentally ill. someone hoards more money than they could ever possibly spend in several lifetimes and we think they're a goddamn virtuoso fuuuuuck that shit.
