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?

    I think it comes down to those that get the death penalty are already incarcerated, they can no longer cause harm even if they were kept alive.

    Those that people want to get luigi’d are often those of the 1% that seem to be impossible to punish in a traditional sense and rarely if ever get put in prison, so they continue to be out in public able to continue to cause harm.
