It is a very good thing that I do not have the powers of Superman because the amount of people on this planet that I would fling directly into the Sun would be enormous. Granted, none of them would reach the Sun because I would be throwing them at such an insane speed they would vaporize before they hit the stratosphere.

It's more sustainable that they burn up, at least their matter would remain on the planet to be reused for something beneficial.

Better to pulp them for compost, which you could probably do way more time/energy efficiently by clapping in a megachurch. Sorry, the dramatic stuff isnt always best .

I'll be back in a bit. Gotta go pray for the universe to grant you some powers.

I'm glad that I'm not the only one with this fantasy. I prefer to make a giant island of dead bodies in the ocean so that their resources go back to the Earth. Or maybe a garden in the desert

You know, when I was a teenager, I threw rocks at houses to get their attention, egged houses, put out flaming bags of dogshit, let air out of tires, knocked and ran, put stink bombs in mailboxes, etc. Kids are the worst.

That doesn't mean adults get to beat the ever living shit out of them.

Just don't fuck with my green beans and everyone still gets to walk. You know how many caterpillars I took off those pieces of shit?

So, considering that the guy basically confessed to attempted murder on public social media, is he going to prison? How racist are Australian courts?

A handy anology to Israel's current bloodshed for a normie. Important context of all previous years gets left out, right, but that's a way to start a conversation about it.

I don't know how to feel about this. Assuming the facts of the case are as reported, both sides appear to be badly at fault, with the girl as the instigator.

[–] Doomsider@lemmy.world 39 points 2 months ago (1 children)

The child threw a rock at a window. The window was broken. Call the cops. It is pretty simple.

Three grown men chasing a little girl and assaulting her trying to cause grievous bodily harm by stomping on her head is nothing short of attempted murder.

Assuming the facts of the case are as reported your take seems pretty damned hot.

Goddammit, we've recreated reddit. Everything has to be fucking black and white, absolutely no space for any nuance in between.

[–] Doomsider@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

For real!

[–] Deceptichum@quokk.au 30 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Even if she did do it, you don't stomp a childs head into the ground due to some broken property.

[–] AwesomeLowlander@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 months ago (2 children)

You'll note I specified they were both at fault.

[–] P00ptart@lemmy.world 17 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Your false equivalence is disgusting.

[–] AwesomeLowlander@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Your ability to take offence at things that weren't said nor implied is astounding.

[–] Senal@programming.dev 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

both sides appear to be badly at fault, with the girl as the instigator.

not said or implied ?

[–] AwesomeLowlander@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Saying that all parties involved have done shitty stuff does not in any way imply they were all equally shitty. You added the equivalence part on your own.

[–] Senal@programming.dev 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I didn't add anything. Look at my username.

In response to the rest:

It also didn't imply the shittyness was unevenly distributed.

If that's what you mean, say as much, then you'll have no cause to be upset at other interpretations of your ambiguous statements.

Or not, you do you.

[–] AwesomeLowlander@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

There's nothing ambiguous about a statement which made no mention or attempt at comparison of degrees of shittiness. The other commentor decided to come in and start an argument about an aspect of the topic which I had not touched on in an any way or form. They can sod off

[–] Senal@programming.dev 2 points 2 months ago

At least two separate people have thought it was ambiguous enough to ask about it.

You seem to feel strongly that it isn't so I'll personally just chalk it up to a skinner moment for you and duck out.

[–] P00ptart@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

It was on display.

[–] altkey@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 2 months ago

You are correct. What sends OP and me off, is that stating that when wrongdoings are so inequal, it can be perceived as equating one to another. I was thinking about posting my readings on that, and I wanted to highlight that, as quoted, cases would be followed on and judged separately, is a just way to do that. Girls aren't relieved from consequencies, and these violent mofos aren't either. And while that states just as much as your comm, it doesn't sound any alarms.

(Destroy peoples MS Windows, not actual windows, install Linux - they will still chase you & call the cops tho.)
