China has a roughly 20% migrant worker population living in notably unsanitary conditions who do not own their homes. This is a direct result of their economic policy.
They have a massive homeless population. It just looks different than in other parts of the world.
I'm not sure why we're censoring these names to begin with. It's not like Facebook posts come with any reasonable expectation of privacy.
Thinking this was fun for anyone involved is an insane take.
I played Dauntless a little bit in the early days. It was extremely simplified Monster Hunter with little of the charm.
Denying and delaying health care is wrong. And while I think that murder shouldn't be a desired solution to the problem as it is also wrong, at this point we have to accept that we've reached systematic self-defense.
Something needs to change, and there are currently no motivating factors encouraging those with the power to make change. I don't want the answer to be violence, but, genuinely, what other options do we have at this point? The courts, the Democratic process, the police and the economy all work together to protect the massive wealth of the few, and we live in a world run by that wealth. I don't want to hurt anyone, but more than that, I don't want anyone to be hurt. When the few in power choose to hurt the many without, tolerance for the gaps in power, wealth, and quality of life give way.
and I wouldn't necessarily be against the state holding to account executives who have produced systems and policies that result in the harm or death of the state's citizens
Right, except if everything went exactly correctly as per the current justice system, the company would be found at fault, fined an absurd amount of money and closed. The wealthy executives who made the decisions that actually resulted in country-wide deaths would get sizable severance packages, take a short vacation, and 6 months to a year later open up the same business under a new name that imposes the same policies. It'll be right back to throwing poors into a furnace to fuel their lamborgini's until the next slap on the wrist.
We have no system to hold people accountable for their decisions as part of a company. We blame the company and then trust the company to police their staff accordingly. I'd love a widespread rework of the justice system to actually target the people responsibly for a companies actions, but we won't get one, so instead, someone has been shot.
Sorry to hear about your father. There's maybe nothing more horrific in Western society than the way we fund the lavish lifestyles of mass murderers like Brian Thompson.
Yes, but, see everyone else's statements.
Also, lemmy.ml is widely seen as a very radical instance. The polarization and downvoting for contrary opinions is far worse around here.
ITT: People who don't know what fast food is. If you are seated, wait staff takes your order, and you wait 15+ minutes for your food to be prepared, it's not fast food, even if you're ordering a hamburger and fries.
Probably A&W. I'm shocked to see so many people saying Wendy's. Their meat is tasteless, imo.
I'll never cheer for an act of murder. But I am not broken up about this one.
Genuine answer? He should be tried. Murder is still murder. But I wouldn't go out of my way to catch the guy, given the chance.
Far greater acts of evil and murder happen every single day, but I'm supposed to be bother by this one because the guy who died played by the rules of our broken-ass system? Or am I supposed to still be so blinded by the myth of capitalism, that wealth inherently represents virtue, that I should believe this CEOs life is worth more than the suffering occurring in every other part of the world? Should I choose to believe that the people he neglected to help - in hischoosing to chase the Almighty Dollar - are worth less than his life, because someone pulled the trigger rather than just watching people suffer while holding back the means to help? What kind of fucked up trolley problem is this?

Don't threaten me with a good time.
