  • I don’t think it’s funny, more like it feels good to see an atom of justice done for once. One murder changes nothing, it has no value as far as changing the system, but the symbolic value is through the roof.

    Here’s the thing: even if we change the healthcare system tomorrow, they get to keep their billions. We can change the system, but there will be no justice because one of the principles of our legal system is that justice isn’t retroactive. So seeing one of the guilty parties killed is an example of retribution that is very rare and exhilarating.

    Just not funny per se




  • Well yeah, anything becomes impactful if a lot of people do it, but i think it’s litterally impossible for that many people to have the means and inclination to attempt assassinations. And if there are, every CEO will have security details long before this phenomenon comes close to actually having consequences. There’s a lot of countries where rich people live completely separate from the rest of society out of fear, it’s a thing that they can do.

    Of course there would be a powerful message sent by rich people not being safe in the streets, but there’s all kinds of ways they can rationalize it before putting themselves into question.


  • There was a mix actually, a lot of users would say they weren’t furries. I can’t guess the proportion

    To me, the fact that r/zootopia was the biggest Disney movie subreddit and never stopped growing is entirely due to it having an umbilical cord to the furry fandom. You can also say that the Zootopia fandom was a good place for normies that were too straight to be furries, and you can say that the Zootopia fandom was step 1 of the pipeline that leads to owning a fursuit and a canine butt plug. All three were probably true.

    I just realized i typed this whole comment in past tense, but uh, the Zootopia fandom still exists. And r/zootopia still exists. I don’t know i don’t have object permanence





  • Genuinely once or twice in 8 years. People knew the rules.

    But the rules around NSFW content were a point of contention, i placed the bar a lot lower than most people in the community would have it. To the point that there was huge controversy a couple times, and i realized that they saw me more as a cop than a janitor. People really wanted to see rabbit hole
