This thread, the comments, and the people who post them, would be fascinating subjects for a sociological-psychological study.

Just to make sure I'm not misunderstood: I'm calling out the people who are proverbially dancing on the victims' graves (yes, there were two fatalities). Regardless of your feelings for one or the other, you are celebrating the loss and pain of their friends and families. Frankly it's disgusting behaviour.

you don't get it mate I don't like the games ubisoft makes so making fun of someone who burned to death in a freak accident is totally justified

also his ancestors ran from the french revolution over 200 years ago. this is relevant because... uh.......

This is why I hate Lemmy sometimes. "It's wrong to wish people dead, except for 'them'. 'They' are fare game." It's the same BS we've been doing for the whole history of our miserable species.

Meh, I don't wish death on anyone, but that doesn't mean I have to be sad that a shitty person died.

Nobody's criticizing people for not being sad. There's a word for this, "gloating".

I still think that's fine. Sometimes the world is better off when someone dies.

Yep. Someone like trump. Not someone who made games worse.

Part of the 0.01%, made absurd amounts of money making games worse, heading a company actively fighting against unionisation.

Something online users cannot understand is that one thing can be bad and and another thing can be thousands of times worse. It really shouldn't be so hard.

Yes, causing harm to thousands of people is significantly worse than one person dying in a crash.

They can wipe their tears with the millions of dollars he "extracted" from his customers and his own workers.

Tell that to the families of the millions of poor affected by the wealth hoarders' actions.

Do you exercise even a fucking moment of thought before you say something?
