It's an incredibly stupid thing to die for, for sure. It'd just be nice to see less celebration of death in the world and in the communities I interact with.

Part of it is the fact that these people were so condescending, so arrogant, so self-satisfied about their nonsense. They called us sheeple for following the recommendations of experts when they were lining up behind a dozen people writing obvious nonsense on obscure blogs and worshiping it like a religion. They quote made up facts and numbers. They abused and assaulted people who were just trying to do their jobs. They were truly the worst that humanity has to offer. So you can understand why there might be a bit of a sense of schadenfreude when one of the rides the crazy train into the ground.

Like I've said...I'm not celebrating her death. I think it's a fucking tragedy that anyone is that stupid, that gullible, that arrogantly stubborn but it was her choice.
