These people obviously have unquestionable control over everything by wealth and influence. People underneath them suffer under their ‘leadership’ whether it is working unhealthy hours for shit pay to working in unsafe environments where they’re subjected to abuse or harm.

Yet there are pockets of people, where if you express the desire of these kinds of people who lead to die, will defend them because reasons. The top reason being that they don’t like the idea of life being taken away. However, the way I see it is that, if you are in high positions and anybody suffers by a big number because you’re a poor leader or so. I think the idea of jail or any justice imposed sentence is beyond them.

Lots of people forget because it’s been 5 years, but Trump allowed 350,000 americans to die under a mishandled pandemic. Was the pandemic going to take lots of lives anyways? Yes, but I argue that it could’ve been negated and handled better. But no, that’s not what we saw happen.

And it is because of that kind of gross example, I wish death on Trump everyday, anyday.

And people argue “oh, he should be in jail to think about his crimes and the law will prevail” blah blah. People have been clamoring for jail time for lots of powerful people, only to find that very few of them do. To them, time is like money, they’re too busy counting how many days they have left before they’re back out and will attempt to re-capture their influence and wealth to resume what they did before again.

So I feel that by sentencing these people to death, we are taking away immediately, what enjoyment they have, in spending making hundreds to thousands to even millions of people suffer and having their lives be worse off.

    People make this more complicated than is needed. We already know who these people are. We already know what kind of wealth they’re wielding. Why do we pretend as if we don’t and we need to re-assess this?

    • I know that some racists shitheads will definitely torch Asian American small bussinesses and lynch small bussiness owners if society gave the “go ahead” of doing a mao-style revolution.

      I don’t want to see my parents dead because some racists are jealous that we are slightly higher on the working class ladder than they are.

      the law enforcement aren’t gonna help Asians when racists attack us, we are seen as expendable, I don’t wanna live in LA Riots type of shit and having to do Rooftop Korean style of defending the community. That’s pure chaos.

      Lol, that is definitely not true. You may have a list, it almost certainly doesn’t match everyone else’s list.

      And let’s say we complete your list. What then? If things dont improve, do we lower the bar and try again?
