Right and wrong doesn't exist anymore.

It's now right and left. When someone on your team is killed, it's a tragedy, when someone on the other team is killed, it's to be celebrated.

No morals, just agendas.

Fucking sick.

This post reads like you're trying to "both sides" a cold blooded murder comitted by a member of a fascist goon squad.

It was actually inspired by reading the online comments of people defending her killer.

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Cool. You still both-sides a cold blooded murder

Oh, I get it now. You're triggered because you're exactly who I was talking about. You don't give a fuck about cold blooded murder. Your goal is to villainize people.

I don't need to prove my devotion to the cause to earn your approval. Go ahead and cause more violence and claim it's different when you do it, or sit in the safety of your home and complain that nobody else is doing what you're afraid to do yourself. Depending on which version of agitator you are.

Do we have to villainize someone that purposely murdered a woman? Isn't that already self-evident?

Maybe word your comments a little better next time then.

One side is really trying to start a civil war, you have to add.

[–] Rhynoplaz@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

To be honest, WE probably want a civil war more than they do right now.

I think very few people ACTUALLY want a civil war, Trump included. It'd be a whole lot easier for him if everyone just complied and let him do what he wants. He's more than willing to deal with a civil war, but if it happens, it will be because he's gone too far (as if he hasn't already) and the first "act of war" is going to be from the left in retaliation.

Again, not saying it wouldn't be justified, but the White House would rather ease us into compliance than fight a war.

I suspect civil trouble was their agenda to get more boots on the ground to start with (whilst they can keep fiddling around, as Rome burns).

It also takes eyes off the Epstein files.
