Weird fucking story tbh. Apparently the shooter got CTE from playing football in college and decided to shoot up the NFL offices. Got off on the wrong floor and blasted some of the worst capitalists in America instead.
Granted, had he gotten off in the right floor, he would have also killed some of the worst capitalists in America
Pick a floor any floor, they’re all the correct floor for some shooting!
I’m not convinced by anything two pigs say about the events. They have an interest in depoliticizing and obscuring the motivations for violence against the ruling class. Maybe a happy accident, but maybe not an accident at all. In either case the world is better off with fewer of these leaches.
Divine providence if I’ve ever seen it
critical support to CTE
Awesome.
lol karma is a removed sometimes
Lifes a removed and then ya die
Are we finally entering an era of mass shootings at people who actually deserve it?
I really do hope so. The elites did nothing when schoolchildren were and are getting shot daily and now every psycho has a mini armory. At least its finally being put to good use
Ironically, US mass shooters switching their targets away from schools and walmarts and towards office buildings and institutions will absolutely cause congress to start pushing heavy gun control laws.
That also crossed my mind. At least school children won’t risk their lives to get educated
That being said, also keep speaking ill of the pigs. It just might get hate speech and hate groups banned as well.
I think it may depend upon how the public reacts to this shooting.
Honestly, if they react the way they did with UnitedHealth, despite the condemnation from the media, then I would completely expect to see more capitalists getting capped. Shooters are usually deprived of social relations, etc. and would be desperate to be seen as heroes by the public, which would be just a pure :waow:.
From what I heard so far I think this one was chance not targeted at this person. I’d hold off until we get more info on the motive
But either way sounds like one less shithead
Yeah, that’s what people mentioned here too. So, sounds like the motive was unrelated/missing but the outcome was acceptable.
Maybe the motive will throw people off, since United had a vengeance element. In which case, I think we could tentatively say USians approve of revenge killings of CEOs.
Going to be cautiously optimistic. Let’s hope this all starts giving some pause to these ghouls gleefully ruining the world.
The american monomyth is strong and self-sacrifice is usually inherent in it. So I guess the shooter will be received positively.
LePatner helped organize a trip to Israel last year for senior women on Wall Street
she used to work for Goldman Sachs too. a truly worthless leech upon society who dedicated her life to the upwards transfer of wealth, and to making housing unaffordable. rot in piss
While looking into her a bit, I came across the term ‘humanitarian zionism’.
anyway
She was also a Zionist? What are the odds of that?!
like 99%? you won’t find anyone remotely anti-zionist in the upper echelons of Blackstone of all places lol
Dear shooter, may you reincarnate as a butterfly or something else cool 🦋🦋🦋
spend a few lifetimes chilling as a deep sea fish or something out of harm’s way, and come back out once we’ve achieved communism
god no life as any kind of fish is fucking horrifying
IDK whale life sounds fun. Of course humans have to ruin it with fishing and filling the oceans with all sorts of plastics and waste :/
Whales aren’t fish though. But tbh the exact same reasoning applies- parasites. I might be wrong but my understanding is essentially nothing in the ocean escapes them. You’re constantly swimming through a larval soup. And almost all of them are horrifying, like that isopod that eats and then effectively replaces tongues. Or how Greenland sharks all have copepods chewing through their eyes that make them blind.
In the most technical way possible, due to all mammals being descendants of boney fish, whales are fish. It’s that whole bell curve graph thing.
Okay you’re right and I knew you’re right in that specific manner but I’m leaning with that sort of Reddit user Unidan rant about crows and shit, like, nobody is going out there saying fish and including mammals with the very specific exception of people who know their evolutionary relationships and even then it’s only really brought up in instances like this
I mean like nobody’s out there eating beef during Lent or whatever and saying hey i mean, technically… yknow, cow’s a fish
Given how bastardized fasting during Lent has become, that isn’t giving any credence to your argument. Technically you aren’t supposed to eat any meat except for designated feast days, where you are allowed to eat fish.
I don’t know why you would assume the traditions of a religion that, in all honesty shouldn’t respect the idea of an evolutionary taxonomy, would respect changed understandings of evolutionary taxonomy. I’m just waxing poetic this point though, you are correct in the broadest sense.
I mean, I personally think about this shit all the time, but that’s just me.
Thanks for the biology lesson! Ya’ll are so nerdy sometimes 😅
Here’s a not so fun fact- life on land is filled with parasites too! And every organism that breathes air is teeming with them, including you and me! Most of us who live under modern conveniences are mostly free of the really big scary ones, but even the healthiest of us still host millions, if not billions of unwanted travelers on our bodies.
I can live with microscopic parasites or, at most, you know those mites and shit that live in your eyelashes. Im not going to be like, oh, cool, some crustacean can just swim into my eye and eat it and i just have to deal, that’s cool.
Let’s not keep talking about it though because honestly the prevalence of fucked up parasites almost makes me want to PTC a dose of ivermectin as a prophylactic. It’s hard not to think “what if one of those times I was barefoot in the mud I got infested with some fucked up worm.”
i really need to go to the doctor just to check shit up because I’m probably in decent health but i’m at this point of, yeah I have insurance now, but i’m almost broke and what if the checkup ends up costing a shitload of money I don’t have when I have many other pressing needs
Love to be an american m i rite
How are there different evil real estate companies named Blackrock and Blackstone? What kind of Wario/Waluigi shit is this?
We live in a shitty Ridley Scott movie without any of the cool aesthetics.
I thought Blackstone became Blackrock? They’re actually different?
They’re both investment firms founded in the 80s but by different people.
I thought one was a spinoff of the other or something?
They were very closely related, but technically separate. BlackRock was initially founded as “Blackstone Financial Management”, a company that “The Blackstone Group” had a 50% stake in. They changed their name to BlackRock after Stephen A. Schwarzman, Blackstone’s CEO, sold his stake in the then-smaller company.
It seems it’s intentional
I guess Blackman Group sures does sound weird in an american context.
You just know that some brand strategist was paid millions to come up with the name Blackrock as an offshoot of Blackstone.
Two senior law enforcement officers said the suspect was targeting the National Football League’s office, but ended up on the floor of another company by mistake.
I prefer to call it a happy little accident
It’s hard for me to believe that’s the truth, seeing it’s coming from people who lie for their job
So was this collateral damage, considering he was supposedly targeting the NFL?
Regardless, man goes on shooting rampage at building full of evil people and an evil person died. Shocker
Rest in peace to the security guard and the shooter, who were both working class.
Sec guard was an offduty cop
If you’re working security at that high a level, you kind of need to be viewed as a collaborator.
I was trying to give some benefit of the doubt and pictured someone like the security guard at my local CVS and makes near minimum wage. But probably right, and if he was an off duty cop then definitely right that he is a collaborator.
Wow! It’s Luigimas in July!
We all need a little bit of adventure in our lives, not everything has to be for the revolution
Buy that last minute ticket to Ibiza, drop a tab of acid before the job interview, shoot up a real estate office, order your coffee black
Crabs out y’all So THIS is what my buddy meant by white boi summer
We eating good this week
Smoked ham
