Hey, leave Scotland out of this. We get tuition fees paid plus a student loan which you can just sort of never pay back ๐Ÿ‘Œ

Would he fuck. The cunt is rich, white (under his orangutan) and an ex-president. That's an echelon that don't go to prison under any circumstances.

I've a love/hate relationship with Rogue Trader 40k. I fucking love it, literally everything about it, but I also hate it because it will end at some point.

Yeah, I'm already extremely suspicious at the convenience of his arrest, given that there has to be a repercussion shown to the 'plebs' - can't have them getting ideas now about the ease with which they could depose their ruling oligarchs and actually get away with it.

I didn't know about those details regarding the evidence being planted, so his statement makes much more sense with that context, thank you.

I'm unsure if he means his arrest is unjust due to the order of magnitude worse injustice of the healthcare system or Luigi stating he's not the culprit (vigilante, hero, The Adjuster - whatever noun floats your boat).

It seems like the former? Annoyingly unclear.

All I'm saying is, if it's the real ~~hero~~ killer, then the lesson we can all take from this - hypothetically - is next time just lie low, don't go to McDonald's and especially don't go to McDonald's with your fake ID, manifesto and, for the love of Christ, not your favourite 3D printed gun.

This is the thing, exactly! It's called The Banality of Evil. When Adolf Eichmann was being tried in Nuremberg for war crimes he committed in Auschwitz, it was widely remarked on about his lack of 'evilness'. The dude seemed like a mild mannered accountant, and by all means was, but he helped enact one of the most heinous and calculated acts of genocide in all of history.

Monsters are easy to point at and shudder, monstrous humanity is far harder to accept let alone vilify. This piece of shit CEO is firmly in the Eichmann camp of evil and we should fucking celebrate he's dead.

That's brilliantly told.

I think the problem here is the concurrent effects of climate change. The US couldn't have picked a worse time to move from flirting with facism to full-on marrying it.

You can deal with one crisis if you're coordinated enough but the chaos that's already occurring with the climate - and is set to become exponentially worse - doesn't give me much hope for a harmonious conclusion to this. Obviously, I hope I'm wrong and you're right.

If nothing else, I'm enjoying the cathartic rage sarcasm cropping up everywhere on this site.

That's the kind of spite-filled journey I can absolutely get behind
