    They should be. That’s the point. They’ve ignored us for decades because the propaganda worked.

    “Violence is never the answer”

    Well historically, that’s a blatant lie. And Luigi woke us all up to that fact. People can argue that the 3.5% rule here applies. But if it does its closer to 35%.

    Spades are broke. Die is cast. Can’t put the Genie back in the bottle. Can’t put the cat back in the bag. “Terrorism” charges don’t scare us. Their finger wagging doesn’t move us. We can see the truth now. And there is absolutely nothing they can do about it.

        I like this slogan. If someone is intent on going out shooting people then let’s direct their anger to the benefit of us all. I fear though that the pathetic cowards who do school shootings do it because it’s easy and kids can’t fight back.

          Yeah school shooters hate society but are unable to ID who made life shit for plebs.

          Columbine send them down the wrong rabbit whole and I have a feeling media played a critical role in that, maybe intentionally?

          They are doing the same thing here which I would think they would know better but it looks like they lost touch with reality. Huffing their own farts too much.

          I’m pretty sure most school shooters attend the school they’re shooting up. Kind of an apples to oranges thing here. Unless … Can we get disgruntled board members onboard?

          Jk their lives are too posh for that.

            Yeah they’re often the weird kids that don’t socialize much so they rationalize it by thinking that everyone else is the problem.

            Not hard to want to go postal when you legitimately think everyone’s out to get you.

      Realistically, the death of Brian won’t move money or power in any meaningful way. CEOs are replaceable like all workers.

      What it hopefully will do is make people aware of the class war that the rich has been conducting for years. Ideally, no more people will have to die to make the working class understand their position, but I’m not entirely sure.

        I disagree that it won’t change those things. This CEO is just one of many, but this event alone has resulted in reaction from heaps of different companies. They see the anger, and they don’t want to be targeted themselves. People will do many different things to avoid being a target. Many of those things are not at all helpful to society, but some of them are… eg. ‘try to be less bad’.

        I’m not saying that it’s a huge shift that will solve all of our problems. But I do think it does make a difference.

          True, I just feel like any of these changes to policies will disappear within a year or two. And while I wouldn’t be against an annual billionaire sacrifice, I think that it just risks even more funding towards police.
