Luigi did it, and he really was that stupid.

Given that he was valedictorian at his school, I find that unlikely to be the option.

I think you’re missing a 4th option:

• He did it, and believed it not worth the anxiety/suffering of living the rest of his life as a wanted man, so did what he could to get away from the immediate scene but ultimately turn himself in so to speak.

And there are almost certainly more nuanced options out there.

That’s only something that could pretty much only be proven with a paper trail, which isn’t necessarily possible.

Homes, medical treatment, and financial stability are all a lot more expensive than bougie consumer products.

And while the average american can usually figure out how evil the oligarchy is, thinking through solutions and actions is a much bigger ask for the average american.

That’s not mutually exclusive with my point. So what?

The difference is self defense. As stated elsewhere in this thread, we should all agree its morally acceptable to kill nazis. With them, it’s either kill or be killed. If we didn’t step up against them in WW2 it would have been disastrous. And with CEOs, billionaires, and other business execs it’s no different. They’re actively killing everyone they can as quickly as they can because it makes them a quick buck.

So ultimately it boils down to self defense.

A state however gets no self defense out of capital punishment. It instead becomes a way to silence political opponents, innocents routinely are executed, and so on. The state cannot be granted the power to kill because it will abuse it. The people eventually need to defend themselves from the state when it is granted this power.

The violence of the oppressed is not the same as the violence of the oppressor.

Sure there is. History is littered with examples. Though a more full explanation of the solution is probably a violation of the TOS.

Geneally, you don’t become a CEO without being a shitty person, and therefore a shitty parent.

The mechanism is irrelevant. Murder is still murder even if through insurance denials, pollution, or any other bullshit legal ways of killing people.

The post is very clearly relevant, it’s addressing the innate problems of work. That’s antiwork.

Higher effort, higher reward

Somebody can be both. And whatever purity test you think this post failed isn’t a helpful one.
