Yes, absolutely, much more shocking.

Political riots and Trump being a scumbag are well integrated into my worldview.

My coworkers making gleeful cracks about a podcaster bleeding out in front of his toddler was new information for me. I didn't realize we were so far gone.

This works as long as the schedulers don't go down (which they have, repeatedly in past incidents)

It's the volume that I found disturbing. There were Twitter posts celebrating or mocking Kirk's death, using images of his murder, with nearly 1MM likes, hours after he was killed. At the time, it was being reported his wife and toddler daughter had been in the audience (thankfully later revealed to not be true).

I haven't seen anything comparable for Hortman but if I had, I agree I would find those incredibly disturbing too.

It's a very ugly thing about political polarization. It's easier to destroy than to build, and both sides seem gleeful about tearing down whatever is (rightfully or not) perceived to be aligned with the 'other'.

The reaction to Charlie Kirk's murder (not even the murder itself, but the celebration of it) made it the most shocking political event for me personally, in my lifetime. And it seems like it might be like this from now on - ripping things apart, destroying lives, and then cheering about it.

So more like a 0.77opoly then

Strong case for B2B sales focus

It's kind of like the opposite of the Nazi bar problem.

You purge some Nazis, then run out of Nazis to purge, but you've got a good purge system going...

Are there theoretical tweets for which you believe arrests are warranted?

It makes me sad that you're not willing to do even the bare minimum of research to check if what you've written is well-founded or not.

If you don't have time to read the papers, you could at least hand them to your favorite LLM and ask them to summarize the strength of evidence for broader macroeconomic factors vs. unions as the primary drivers of work hours, benefits, pay, unemployment etc.

The same way you advocate for getting good bananas, good streaming services, or good laptops.

You only make voluntary transactions you want to make. If you don't like what a job is offering, take another job or start your own business.

If you don't like ANY of the bananas being produced by ANYONE, this probably isn't because all banana producers are moustache twirling villains. It probably has something to do with the underlying realities of banana production, supply, and demand.
