      In context, it’s a joke about how Elon removed protections against misinformation, not about wishing death on him. The joke only works if you know he’s alive.

      Ok ok ok, I’m going to lay this out for you.

      Elon Musk wants people like me dead. They cannot be convinced otherwise and be giving them the time of day to try convince them not to kill me is, genuinely, a waste of time. They have made up their mind and believe that I am irredeemable.

      His ideology itself is a declaration of the will to kill people, this isn’t a case of “his opinion”, his ideology in itself declares people like me unworthy of a happy, healthy and full life.

      Wishing harm upon people like these is an act of self defense, not an act of wanton cruelty.

      You should go to the places where people want others dead for how they were born, not the fact that they cause massive suffering, and tell them that.

      If it makes you feel better, I wish I were dead too 👍 This world would be better off without some people, some people would be better off without this world 🤷

        It’s a paradox alright. Are you supposed to be one of the tolerant? Can’t tell.

          Tolerance is a social contract. People who practice intolerance are not owed anything.

          That’s the whole point of the paradox. Tolerance requires being intolerant to those who are intolerant. If someone won’t be tolerant of gay people, you shouldn’t be tolerant of them.

          To put it more simply, tolerance is a two way street. If you aren’t tolerant of someone, then you shouldn’t be surprised when they and their loved ones are intolerant of you. If you’re going to hate gay people, don’t expect gay people and those who support gay people to like you.

      Despite getting three reports I won’t take action against Ulph. They don’t seem to be a troll. I don’t believe in removing proples comments just because they are morons

      It seems like this community isn’t as peaceloving as they made it out to be. It seems like the lines are fading.
