surely you can see the difference between the insurance CEO shooter and Daniel Penny (and some other kinds of killing for that matter) like. it's not always about moral consistency because the world aint black and white. i mean, be so fucking fr

Choosing to believe anon is twelve because I don't have the emotional capacity to explain to an adult human being that death is in fact black and white due to its irreversibility and the second you allow for Some extrajudicial killing you open the door for All extrajudicial killing because there has never been a time in human history when badness has been given an inch and not taken a mile.

#personal #answered #anonymous #someone didn't read book 10 of lemony snicket's a series of unfortunate events 'the slippery slope' where he defined a slippery slope #fortunately i am normal so #like are daniel penny and mr ceo shooter different people with different motivation? yes duh #did they both due to the same thing (murder a person for their own private personal reasons that they consider justified even tho illegal)?#also yes duh #it's why if you're a death penalty opponent except for whatever crimes you personally deem foul i also think you're a hypocrite #y'all just have no principles there's no consistency to your beliefs #it's like the idiots who get pissy every time the US does anything but say that russia isn't an imperialist nation #and what they've been doing in other countries especially in ukraine with their invasion isn't imperialism as well as profoundly evil #cannot be me my beliefs are informed by my interior morality and can thus be consistent #again being the only person with normal and morally consistent viewpoints is very hard but i soldier on
