Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.


2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.


Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion.

Oh boy sounds like they're afraid of copycat killers.

Why - are they doing something that should make them afraid?

I think mass shootings in the US are a little passe. This on the other hand...

[–] P00ptart@lemmy.world 22 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Targeted killings of evil people get me hard.

Same same... I can't be the only one with a bit of a crush on this masked hero. What we can see is sexy af, though I would never be able to describe him to a sketch artist.

What's the old expression?

If you've got nothing to hide/done nothing wrong, then you have nothing to worry about.

That's why I stroll down the street nude. Everyone else is a juicier target than me 😎 why you wearing clothes huh?! Kinda sus.

The two could be combined. Any shooting of three or more executives would be a mass shooting of executives. By a mysterious masked man that no one can identify.

What do you mean? They are just trying to put food on the table for their families.

/s in case that isn't blatantly obvious

I watched a documentary on oil execs a while ago (can't remember the name, sorry :( ). Someone asked an exec why he wasn't giving 50 of the 60 billion dollars he owned to charity or government programs and he literally said "but how am I going to feed my family" without a shred of irony.

You were being funny, but the billionaire class actually believes this.

Feed my family? What about feeding my coke habit?

What the hell are they eating, inexplicably stable trans-uranium elements?
