I think Edward Snowden showed us all how the US feels about heroes.

Mangione probably should have considered leaving the country... I guess, I'm sure he considered it.

I think you mostly can't work under 16.

"Calls for targeting the executive team, their families, homes, and places of work using a variety of online and offline means to harass, disrupt, and harm the individuals and the organizations have become widespread."

I'd argue that this is a non issue that doesn't warrant additional attention, as it only affects less than 1% of the population.

Instead, do more to combat drunk driving, that will have a bigger meaningful effect on the populace.

Fresh produce.

We have a few different grocery stores to choose from, stop and shop is the closest. But we mostly don't go there because their produce simply sucks. The selection is poor and all too often things look wilted already sitting on the shelf, and worst when you get the produce home, despite appearing ripe it'll be largely flavorless.

High quality produce makes such a big difference in the food we eat, we're willing to drive a lot further to get it.

Well, here's hoping.

Is it a twist if nobody is surprised?

Perhaps this should actually read "in grim reality, most see suspect in C.E.O. Killing as Hero or Heartthrob".

From that I'd say they have pretty good matches on him. The bad news for him is that these days with surveillance, you need to be really sneaky before you commit a crime as well as after. It's hard to cover all your tracks on the way in and on the way out.

It looks like they're getting better pictures of his face, that's real bad for him. Personally, I'm not confident he's getting away with this. It would probably be wise to leave the country asap.

Personally, I agree. But we do need to be limiting the damage trump can do. I think Biden should go the other way, do a few things that are so illegal that the SCOTUS has to start limiting the president's powers.

Perhaps a domestic drone strike or two.

We need these abstractions though, we love them, and we should! The problem isn't abstraction itself, we couldn't survive without that. The problem is in how we build these abstractions, the problem is that we create unsustainable and irresponsible abstractions and then present them as legitimate options.

But we can't throw out abstraction entirely. It's like, if a person dies in a car crash, we should ask some questions, but you don't ask "should we really have cars?", instead you ask "should that person be driving a car? And is that car safe to drive?"

I know a couple of people who had jobs working with a defense contractor. One of them justified it by saying he doesn't actually work on missile projects, his department does as air traffic control systems (and sure, there's nothing objectionable about that). But they both knew what their company did and it certainly did make it an uncomfortable place to work. You can tell yourself that these weapons only get used on bad guys, but I think the more you have to tell that story, the harder it is to hear yourself.

They've both moved on at this point.

But if we do that today, what do we do tomorrow? When someone someone else takes that vacant CEO position and starts receiving that ludicrous salary, what then?

If you killed every billionaire every month, they probably wouldn't have time to seriously affect society, but then I suspect we'd have other problems. I have a feeling that would produce some negative outcomes for the economy and general quality of life.

A phobia is also legit.
