My wife had this 3D DS ever since we met. This is how I feel and we need more Luigis. We need to free him. Fuck that DOJ.

It’s been pretty clear for sometime that in the US laws don’t apply equally to everyone.

[–] GladiusB@lemmy.world 1 points 5 hours ago

They should. But when the Supreme Court is corrupt, this is what happens.

There were two immigrant teenagers murdered in NYC the same day as Thompson. Nobody cared in the slightest.

Serial killers like Ted Bundy, state charges. Even though he crossed several states. Yet this has federal charges for some reason.

Circa 1776, more specifically.

UH CEO was provably guilty of deep evil and harm against millions of Americans. El Paso Walmart shoppers not at all. Even the premise that they as a race are somehow bad for America is highly suspect. Among the murdered, only 8 were Mexican. 13 Americans and a German. The political terrorism charge that applies to UH CEO, applies way more to this murder. 50/50 there's a pardon, and new GOP speaking tour.

Ugh, for somebody from Europe to visit the states and then get gunned down in a mass shooting at a Walmart, could there be a more stereotypical “experience America” than that?

Having to deal with the hospital bills afterwards if they survive?

Damn it, you are totally right.

None of the 23 was a millionaire.

B

The parents I no longer speak to probably have around 1mil if you include real estate. The fact that they think "tax the rich" applies to them in any actual life changing way is a laughable mindset that actual billionaires use to keep the upper-middle class in line / helping them oppress the rest of us. We'll need to break that mindset to fully dismantle this shit since they comprise a large number of local low-level bureaucrats. If you don't either figure out how to get them on your side or come up with suitable replacements (harder than you'd think) it's actually quite difficult to create any kind of functional new social system, which generally just leaves a power vacuum open for either more or continued dumbfuckery.

How many non-billionaire’s lives are equal to one billionaire’s life?

If you had less than 24 I have bad news for you.

[–] BrokenGlepnir@lemmy.world 15 points 20 hours ago

Multi millionaire right? I think he was the top 1 percent of 1 percent, but I don't think he broke 1 billion.

Although it’s more like 3/5000

[–] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 5 points 16 hours ago

I think all individual murders should be prosecuted equally.
