I’d have agreed with you if he was the direct cause of some people death, like that asshole that got Luigi-ed, but he is not. He sure took decisions that ended up making subpart games, fucked over devs, and all. He’s a capitalist shark like there are thousands of others, but does that warrant death? People like you are the cause why fascism is on the rise. No humanity, no regrets, no actions taken, until it affects you personally.

Agreed… It’s crazy it’s so controversial. Don’t dance on peoples graves.

It doesn’t warrant death, no. But people can cheer the death of an awful person without saying “hey we should keep the streak going!” And what are you talking about? Our current case of fascism is a direct result of unregulated capitalism, courtesy of neoliberalism.

Few billionaires are direct causes of anyone dying. However, they’re always indirect causes of lots of people dying, by their own choice. Is there a valuable difference between shooting somebody and poisoning the food and water of 10 random people? Maybe. Maybe not. Ultimately, you’re choosing to take people’s lives, knowing the outcome. I don’t think people care about whether you’re a ‘direct’ cause, as much as they care about whether or not you’re a deliberate cause. All of us will probably cause some deaths as we go about our lives. But at no point do most of us make a decision to end someone’s life. Whereas billionaires do make the decisions, and they do it completely voluntarily, seeking profit. They often seem happy about the decisions too.
