Yesterday: mass shooters are America's single greatest problem, what kind of nutjob actually kills other people to satisfy their insane ideology? Today: a person I've never met with the surname Koch is dead and this may be the happiest day of my life

If, in my weakest moments, I find myself wishing real harm on people who are both politically active and (IMO) heinously wrong, I don't want to endorse those feelings in myself. And I especially don't want my community or society at large to endorse them
I think it's really, really strange to live in a society where various political tribes explicitly celebrate the deaths of their political enemies and then act like murder is some bizarre, inexplicable act vaguely related to psychosis + firearms

I think it's really strange that you don't see a significant difference between ppl commenting on a public person's natural death and ppl's reactions to multiple mass shootings.

I think it's fascinating to watch people literally celebrate a political opponent's death in between intense conversations about the hate-fueled radicalization of... their political opponents. I'm not surprised the obvious doesn't occur to them.

It's not wishing death upon political enemies as opposed to being glad of the fact that someone who's actions have consistently and constantly been in direct conflict with human flourishing is no longer able to engage in those actions.
