A 78 year old woman, who lives alone, gets beaten to death in her own home and you think this is appropriate.

You sick fuck.

She spent her life working hard to make the life of vulnerable people she hated as miserable as possible.

I don't believe in an afterlife of punishment so I hope she died frightened and in pain as that's all she got for her lifetime of punching down rather than address her own fucked up hangups.

I'm only replying to double down, not to defend myself. The world is a better place without her and I'm not ashamed for one second for wishing that miserable ghoul harm. If you think less of me for it, do so, because I'm unrepentant.

Lol get you playing at the edge lord of the day.

She was utterly useless and ineffectual and never made it as far as a minister in the government of the day.

The world is better off without her in it but normalising murder is a red line.

I didn't plot her murder.

I didn't call for it either.

I'm not wishing an eternity of literal suffering for her.

I'm not opening a beer to celebrate or posting memes about it.

I'm not suggesting it's what lots of other people should have happen to them either.

I get to be pleased that a nasty piece of work came to a nasty end. How I feel about it has no bearing on what happened.

You clearly don't feel as strongly as I do, which is fine, but I genuinely do feel this way about her. Policing how I feel about her is a bit weird to me, frankly.
