The "he's a father" line has got to be the most slave-morality, don't-ask-questions, get back to work and serve the Economy, don't make trouble for the system, obvious bullshit I've ever heard.

One can make plenty of better arguments for why not to make fun of him posthumously, so why pick such a bad one? Oh right, because the vast majority of our society has never been educated to care about the logical validity of an argument, but only its emotional gut-feeling truthiness.

Inability to use a condom doesn't make anyone entitled to my sympathy.

No i don't think one can.

[–] mfed1122@discuss.tchncs.de 10 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Better, but not ultimately valid :)

[–] psx_crab@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 day ago

That's true.

Not good, but better than that. Things like 'it still had time to stop being a piece of shit and return to his humanity"

There are still much better ones for not, of course.

He was a father, which means now his kids have a slightly better chance of not growing up to be complete pieces of shit.

unless the mother jumps in bed with another magat influencer.

Yeah it's a big tell to not take someone seriously in the future.

I care as much about his kids as he did for the victims of school shootings that he said were an acceptable sacrifice in exchange for the 'god given right'* to own guns. If he cared about his kids he would have kept his head down and made an honest living instead of being a lying dumbfuck shit-stirrer for money. They're better off without his toxic influence.

  • If any one ever starts talking about 'god given rights', look for the nearest exit. Those people are nuts.

If anything, his kids have a chance to grow up and be humans now.

they're getting that inheritence and or life insurance money, and they don't have to deal with having his shitty ass for a dad dragging them to places where someone might shoot at their family.

because you know, they already shot at and killed his dad yesterday.

Giving your wife a crampie does not automatically make you a good person.

Or worthy of mourning.

I would encourage people to read the Wikipedia page on George Floyd. He was a complicated and flawed individual, who definitely did some bad things and didn’t make very good decisions all the time. But he tried to improve later in his life with mixed results (at least with regards to drug addiction), and that counts for something, I think.

Derek Chauvin and Charlie Kirk, by comparison, tended to get worse as their lives went on. Chauvin may well have framed Floyd for a drug crime and Kirk espoused factually false information to millions of people just to gain fame and power in conservative circles.

These people are not the same.

Absolutely terrible. That’s just wrong. He gushed out the other side of his neck.

Spurt, baby, spurt!

Anyone's got the vid? 🍿

It isn’t hard to find
Edit: link (VERY NSFL)
