It doesn’t make us particularly similar in my opinion, the reason is why we take satisfaction from his suffering. I don’t know about you but to me it is due to righteous anger, he has hurt innumerable people both directly and indirectly that frankly speaking I don’t think there is a way for him to pay. His suffering and hopefully his death won’t be some grand recompense it’ll be a chore like killing a weed.

As for the rank and file, I don’t hate em. They are victims of pointless propaganda and bullshit and frankly deserve better than their given lot. That is what separates me from them, while I don’t give a damn about collateral I also don’t wish to create it unduly. I remember folks cheering as the cities were first hit by covid, I don’t feel any satisfaction from folks getting fucked over like that.

As for Musk in particular I doubt if I got to lash him to a cross that I’d feel particularly good, frankly speaking id probably feel like shit. But well I’d be doing a chore one that I think needs doing, if Musk did the same to me it’d be a flash of pleasure for him before he moves into his next high.
