    That actually didn’t help much of anything

    Catharsis may feel nice but prioritizing feeling validated over addressing the problems you want to feel so valid about just leaves you feeling valid about a still festering wound.

      Can we do both? Murder some of the ultra wealthy and also make systemic improvements?

        I believe that would be called “redistributing the wealth” given how many stupidly wealthy people claim they couldn’t live on any less.

        An environment that allows the indiscriminate murder of an entire class is one that is inherently too lawless to organize systemic improvements to the root causes of institutional problems.

        Like I said Catharsis feels nice but helps nothing.
