So killing is not okay except when its internet-approved vigilantism?

Example: “Polititian commutes death sentences” Lemmy be like “good”, but then when “Politician condemns assassination” Lemmy have a problem with condeming political violence?

(Like Gavin Newsom commutes all death row immates in California vs when Democratic polititians condemned Luigi Mangione)

Or are these different groups of Lemmings?

    People against death penalty1 think the state shouldn’t be given the right to murder people. That’s it.

    These people want the system to work, without the need of murdering anyone, let that be by the state or the people.

    The very same people agreeing that a murder was beneficial for the system and the people doesn’t contradict that. It’s simply a symptom of the system being broken and the state not doing enough to fix it for the people.

      And one of the reasons that people think the state shouldn’t have the power to kill people is that the system is broken.
