Been saying it since 🔔Limbaugh🔔. The idea that we need to pretend it isn’t a good thing when evil people die is some Disney channel bullshit
Disney used to like killing their villains. These days, they make entire movies dedicated to the villain…
Yeah god dammit Moana that fucking monster.
At least they killed Thanos twice and smoked Snoke like he was nothing
I’m still upset we didn’t get anything about snokes back story. Why did he even exist if he was going to do nothing and then die
Boba Fett felt pretty unnecessary in the originals (literally any random bounty hunter could have been used) but at least he had one thing going for him: A cool suit. Snoke didn’t even have a cool suit. SMH.
He existed purely to develop Kylo. He got fridged.
Also, what he did do was create the First Order and challenge the whole galaxy, as well as coming up with the idea for Starkiller Base. He did the most out of anyone in the sequels but it was all offscreen. They told, not showed.
It shows how little they actually put effort in character building…
How can you declare that Snot or Snort or whatever his name is the master of an important character and then boom he’s dead…
It was so pointless…
Obi wan kenobi death was purposeful as you see he became stronger in death…
Stork… Or wait was it snork? Anyway that character didn’t even need to be in the movie…
Yep, I sometimes really feel that that kind of people (you know what I mean) never progressed their morality past Disney cartoons that have it all dumbed down so that toddlers can grasp the concept of right and wrong.

I clicked that link before the comment was deleted, and wow that is an offensive song
+1, takes me back to the good old days
I deleted it myself because I felt a couple of the targets were a bit too pointlessly edgy for the room. But some of them are spot on. (Eulogy Song from The Chaser’s War on Everything for those curious)
It’s weird how most people would agree that walking out into the wild with a camera and harassing wild animals for entertainment is wrong, but also most people will hear this song and get very upset at the guy pointing that out
The evil ones die in tons of Disney movies. That’s where mostly the US of A got their brains washed and consequently celebrate a public execution without due process.
Funny? No.
A good start? You betcha.
Is anyone, not virtue signalling, truly upset by this? It looks like a good, but small beginning of a purge long overdue.
Upset? No. More like a little uncomfortable. Partly because I’m an idealist who always hopes for the best and most moral and peaceful solutions. Partly because it makes me uncomfortable how little I am angered by this. Sure I absolutely do not want proles to go and kill the bourgeoisie… but I guess it’s not… I don’t feel the need to condemn this. Sometimes things are just… shrug
But it’s really just a little uncomfortable, like a sock not quite fitting my foot.
I am far FAR more uncomfortable with someone calling this the good but small beginning of an overdue purge.
Upset? Maybe his wife or kids. If someone that disgustingly anti-social is even capable of faking a marriage and being a “father”.
The quotes are from his estranged wife. So he hasn’t held together a marriage.
I can just assume it was about money. Who else would marry such a disgusting human being? …if she was not as equally disgusting though. I really don’t know and not sure I do want to.
Upset?
Yeah, a little. Not that he was killed, only that it was a pointless gesture that wasted an opportunity.
You can’t spell murder without laughter.
You’re thinking manslaughter
LMAO
I work in the insurance industry (though not directly for an insurance company) and while it’s a small sample size, employees there range from apathetic to rolling their eyes at the “poor CEO needing money for his funeral”
Insurance is a gamble with money. Noone cares. Health-insurance is a gamble with life. If you work for Hitler, you are Hitler. At least the nazis back then could blame it on cluelessness and not knowing. You can’t. If you meant THIS kind of insurance.
My theory is that it’s just that episode of Its Always Sunny from the new season. Dennis is placed on a customer service loop and eventually gets so frustrated with robot receptionists, scripted tier 1 support, and a system designed to waste our time and pit us against each other, that he tracks down the CEO of the car company at his beach house and rips his heart out of his chest and eats it.
So maybe someone should try that next time?
Call every crime tipline and report the person responsible for this death and many others - That person’s name was Brian Thompson.
Still reminds me of the time they sent out a sketch of the uni bomber and musician/professional jokester Weird Al did this
This can be the start of our revolution
🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽
Yes.
Yeah well Brian can get fucked.
Not anymore he can’t.
Well not…in a traditional sense…
I don’t think it’s funny, more like it feels good to see an atom of justice done for once. One murder changes nothing, it has no value as far as changing the system, but the symbolic value is through the roof.
Here’s the thing: even if we change the healthcare system tomorrow, they get to keep their billions. We can change the system, but there will be no justice because one of the principles of our legal system is that justice isn’t retroactive. So seeing one of the guilty parties killed is an example of retribution that is very rare and exhilarating.
Just not funny per se
one of the principles of our legal system is that justice isn’t retroactive
There have been plenty of cases in history where this didn’t hold.
King Charles I of England. King Louis XVI of France (not to mention the rest of his far-less-culpable family). Many prominent Nazis post-WWII. When society collectively decides that someone’s actions were heinous enough and caused enough harm, at a certain point a law can be created and applied retroactively, often on the grounds that there was a clear violation of some greater principle that should be self-evident.
I like how you missed the “our legal system” when giving examples entirely outside the legal system in which this killing took place.
Umm, no, not really? King Louis maybe, but the Common Law system used across most former UK colonies traces a line back to before King Charles’ execution, and the Nuremberg Trials were set up by the Allies (which prominently includes the US and UK) and form an important basis of 21st century international law.
It gives me hope that maybe the distant future doesn’t include a privileged class using the rest of us as free labor, fuel, and food…
It’s not funny it’s 🥾⏳
Boot time?
Say it like a Canadian. It’s aboot time.
Ahhhhhhhh I see
