Well, I’m increasingly beginning to think that that guy isn’t even the Adjuster himself, and we shouldn’t treat him like he is guilty. (of doing such a wonderful thing)
He may end up not being the shooter but he has a history of posting things that align with the ideology
But like… Don’t we all?
“It’s not the class you were born into, it’s the class you’re willing to fight for.”
If he was poor the narrative would be he’s just jealous and should have got a job and worked his way up.
Yep, I’m reminded of Nina van Zandt Spies an heiress who gave it up to marry one of the haymarket martyrs. Sure of the Haymarket widows she’s no Lucy Parsons, but America couldn’t handle the one of her, much less a second.
We don’t have a great many stories of people betraying the upper class for the lower, but all who do are welcome among us far more than those who betray our class for the upper are among them.
interesting!
It’s also possible to be in a stereotypical privileged position while still suffering from terrible things such as health issues that are not covered and are costly.
Evidently you don’t feel as strongly as he did to throw his privileged life away.
Meh, one person’s feelings and how they act are hard to measure up to another person’s feeling and how they act.
Someone who lost a loved one because of insurance bullshit might feel way stronger than a knowledgeable kid who sees the injustice. And a thousand other viewpoints too, might feel more strongly about it than the shooter.
More heads need to roll. To the guillotine!
Let them eat cake!

Let them eatcake denied!- Insurance companies
FTFY
Also, it’s possible to be priveliged and also understand and sympathize with the problems of other people.
Also, it’s possible to be privileged and have your life wrecked by this system.
Just fucking imagine what it’s like to be underprivileged and never have a chance in the first place.
I got my B.S. years early with minimal debt. Working salaried in tech since I was 18. Since I can’t buy a home I know shit is royally fucked and no I will not settle for simply scrambling to the top of my peers. Let’s topple the tower.
Right? I don’t make a lot but I’m lucky to have support and I do(normally) make more than twice minimum wage. Whenever someone says that I should change jobs if I want more money I seriously consider pushing them infront of traffic.
My last bosses said, and I quote, “we are not responsible for paying for your lifestyle” in response to a Google Doc I shared showing how the salary they offer for my office job was grossly underpaying me and I was being quite generous. It’s like, what the fuck do they think a salary is? It’s literally the monetary compensation that someone gets which provides the lifestyle that we expect a given job should support.
All these bosses have been told how special they are for way too long and they seem to think that we actually enjoy working for them so much that our salaries are more like a nice bonus.
Something about all the “evil boss” movies of the 80s and 90s really stuck with that generation. It’s like they picked out the lowest of lows from the movie and said “you know what as long as I’m better than that I’m a good boss and people should be happy to work for me”.
Hell so many of them saw that and went “ooh maybe I can be like that someday!”
But yea, relativistic morality is a fuckin’ cancer and I hate it and the braindead people who suck so bad at life they need to find excuses like that for their shitty behaviour.
Bullshit years?
Apropos of nothing, have you seen the prices of handguns these days? Even the parts for a 3D printed one can run you $900, easy. Fucking ridiculous out here.
Yet getting hernia corrected is $16,000. $900 barely pays the rent for a month anywhere in the country.
When the cost of living is so high the cost of dying needs to be levied on the ones responsible.
You can get a used glock for ~$400 USD.
Do you ship to the UK. /s
Doesn’t every county Texas hand one out to you as a coming of age gift when you turn 18? Or was the cartoon I watched as a kid lying.
I believe you can get a free gun with food stamps in Alaska for hunting
Give a man food and he’ll have food for one day. Give a man a gun and he can feed himself his whole life.
Holy shit really? I could get a pistol for 400€. Is there some kind of monopoly stuff going on that tries to reserve weapons for the rich?
Edit: did a quick search and found one a lightly used one for 130€
I have no idea what the guy is talking about. Hi-points are under like 200$, and thats a complete pistol. It ain’t luxurious but it shoots.
I thought he graduated from the University of Pennsylvania?
Edit: I’m a moron and it’s literally an Ivy League school. TIL
Basically Ivy league
Isn’t UPenn actually just Ivy League?
Yeah turns out I’m dumb
Yes, according to my Kagi search.
He is our leader in this revolution
leaders lead, symbols inspire.
Luigi is a symbol.
