    I had a shower thought the other day that if more CEOs were shot dead, there’d probably be less Return to Office.

    People are sometimes like “oh but violence is bad!” but ignore all the casual harms inflicted on people by capitalism and friends.

      They also ignore all the freedom of the lower classes which was won through violence against the upper class.

        When the people in charge refuse to listen, the only tool left is violence.

          One dead CEO caused so much unity on health reform. Never seen anything like this in my life time.

      Nah CEOs will mandate RTO for workers while they themselves stay remote.

      You had me until you distilled everything into “capitalism”… Life isn’t black and white.

      Inb4 the intellectually dishonest response of “but I said ‘and friends!’”.

        Where would you lay the blame?

        And how is that hypothetical response “intellectually dishonest”?
