I think one easy way to remember is if you’re somewhere where either one resides, you’ll know about it.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•The assassination of United Healthcare's CEO is a real life trolley problem, and a select few are trying to argue to save all lives while the train is going to kill the masses.
1·1 year agoI think that the health insurance industry is profoundly immoral.
When it comes to strategy, however, morality doesn’t even factor in.

44·1 year agoThis smells like the second amendment argument about defending against a tyrannical government. Please, take inventory of materiel and finances before you go down that road.
I would argue there’s another deep hypocrisy lying with people who insist such figureheads should be killed, but the only action they take is blathering about it on public forums.
Be the change you seek, go set an example if you think you know what’s right.
But pitting us against the ruling class in this way isn’t going to be a winning proposition. The best you’ll get is a massive and severe security clampdown.

12·1 year agoInteresting, are you recruiting me to do something specific with you? Or should we just keep discussing how it’s immoral not to do violence on an extremely public forum?

36·1 year agoI don’t know if it’s morals, I just don’t have the stomach for violence. That’s kind of a weird thing to say to a person anyway.

71·1 year agoIt should go without saying that such violence is not good and not supportable.
I am not celebrating. It’s a tragedy, even if a predictable one. We’ll all do better with a little more cooperation and a lot less greed.
I don’t like it when people die, or get maimed.
If I say that I can understand how something like this happens, it’s not out of sympathy for the murderer. It’s just an accounting of facts amidst the fact that billions of people exist so obviously someone is going to be willing to kill for their perceived injustices. Especially when injustices are a lot more concrete than abstract.

That said, I also think those who make monopolistic fortunes off the sick while also dictating refusal of care to the sick are categorically not civilians. It is what it is.
Some music gear got stolen from my van parked in my driveway.
I called the cops the next day, they came over and took a report and told me nothing ever gets recovered.
Then I called around the music shops to report serial numbers and stuff. Within a day I got most of my equipment back, especially the expensive parts.
But the cop who took my report for some reason was tasked with doing the recovery from the second hand store, and he was really mad about it.
That was about 12 years ago, and since then I have come to the conclusion that I would only deploy police in conditions where I would be willing to deploy lethal force which is almost never, and ideally probably never.
