    I feel like anyone saying otherwise (who doesn’t already LIKE these guys) is just lying. How could you not? “Oh just keep destroying the lives of hundreds of millions as long as I’m on my high horse never wishing you death” that’s not the moral take people think it is.

      Their death doesn’t solve the underlying problem. The problems are systemic. If his death just means he’s replaced by a similar asshole, that doesn’t solve anything. Wishing each other dead is not going to fix anything.

      But I also don’t wish anyone dead out of principle. I oppose the death penalty out of the same principle.

      I make one exception for Putin. He is the problem. His death would immediately prevent thousands of unnecessary deaths every day, in a way that Trump’s or Netanyahu’s death wouldn’t.
