Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Obligatory, I do not condone violence per lemmys rules, or whatever.

Agreed. This might be the only method to save us. Rule of law doesn't work, we are owned by the billionaire class. Bring out the guillotines for these bootlickers. Might be the only way we get free.

Free Luigi.

Fuck this aryan Pam bondi cunt and these prosecutors.

I'm still waiting for people to get mad enough to use drones for political violence. Like shit, Ukraine can make an effective FPV for like 50 USD from what I've seen

Imagine if Luigi dropped a grenade on this dude while just sitting in Central Park.

It's gonna be a good time.

Drone warfare is politically agnostic. If it can be used by a Luigi against a healthcare CEO, it can be used by far-right extremists against progressive politicians, pride parades, or Black churches. I'm not very jazzed to live in the world of Slaughterbots.

I feel with that interpretation, any weapon is politically agnostic. Which I'd agree with given the use of firearms by far right extremists to shoot up Walmarts, clubs, and churches. They've already been using weapons against their "adversaries" like the domestic terrorists they are.

But agreed, I'm not actually excited about it. The premise is horrifying. I do hope the good guys pull the trigger first on this one. It's, in my opinion, the logical next step.
