    It’s embarrassing that the murder of 1 CEO is a bigger news story than yet another school shooting.

      I didn’t even see it. I was told by someone. That’s how “normal” it is. Apparently it was a girl too, that’s rare. Not news worthy? Ffs.

        The only way I know about the shooting is this comment chain and one of the “only country where this happens regularly” memes on here.

        I don’t really keep up anymore and I heard about this fwiw. Haven’t heard about Luigi nearly as much save for memes

          Well, the judicial process is a lot slower than our desire for change. Events take weeks or months. Also, I’m sure the prosecution wants to give it time to die down. Hoping that the jury will soften up. If it were to be tried today, he has significantly more chance of winning.

      I keep saying incels need to pivot from elementary schools to country clubs.

      They can legit be making the world a better place and fighting back against the people who are actually responsible for their suffering.

      Rich people don’t have a problem getting laid, ever. In fact, the idea that wealth makes someone more attractive actively contributes to the the rise of incels.

        That’s human nature. Also I’m not sure even an incel would want a woman for whom wealth is so much more attractive than, ahem, the downsides of being close to someone insanely more powerful.

      It makes sense though. School schootings are depressing and happen all the time. The CEO murder was a breath of fresh air.

      Record breaking number of school shootings that don’t even get corporate news air time outside of local markets
