    The consequences keep me from doing things.

    Personally I don’t murder because I don’t want to and I feel like it’s wrong to do so. Sure there are consequences, but I really don’t need them to stop me from going out murdering people. Perhaps there are people who do need these consequences, but it seems a fair statement to say that most don’t.

      Yea sure yet even online I see many comments that want to kill the rich or kill the pedophiles, Russians or animal abusers or anyone that person thinks they deserve to die.

      In what world you live where it isn’t the majority?

        You’re taking the utterings of keyboard warriors as reflective of reality?

          Justice boner isn’t an internet phenomenon. Just look at history and all the burned witches. People aren’t some fairy tale elves. We are animals looking for a reason for public lynching more often than not. People violently release pent up frustrations because of love interest rejection. Rape is commonplace. As is harassment.

          Anarchists are such naive children inside that it is moving. Meanwhile people regularly elect facists and racists even in this milquetoast form of democracy let alone ultimate, radical democracy of anarchy. People aren’t fit to decide their own stuff unfortunately. I wish it wasn’t true. I deeply wish so.

          Internet is merely a mirror into the soul of humanity. What hides under the beneficial mask of social politeness is seen when there is no reason to pretend.

          Lemmy is a cool fragile bubble for certain kind of naive lefty ppl. Lacking some old good sense and that may even be dangerous ignorance of how prevalent in society are some type of folks even if they aren’t immediately recognisable. We carry gas or guns for a reason.

          I have been too angry in previous comments. I apologise.
