    The animal kingdom is luigifying too! 💪

    Maybe get some kind of confirmation a person is a shitty person before celebrating their death? All I can find about this guy is that he was prominent in wildlife conservation activism. Do you have sources I didn’t read?

    Alternatively, I guess you might try and make the argument that he must have been a shitty person solely because he started, ran, and/or sold a business at some point in his life. I wouldn’t recommend it, as that’s a shitty argument on its own merits, but you could try.

      Mother Nature singled him out to get fucking EATEN by a lion during pride month in Namibia

      I don’t normally go for mystical thinking but come on now

      (Though the article implies he was a donor to conservation efforts of specifically the kinds of lions that attacked him so 🤷‍♂️)

      businessman at luxury safari resort

      He got that money through exploitation, and he’s using it for exploitation.

          The only way to get rich is by taking advantage of others.

          Oh boy, this needs to be spelled out for you which means you need more life experience.

          Keep being a useful idiot.

            You think a reductive platitude followed by some milquetoast insults like that is “proof”?

            You don’t even know the guy’s rough net worth. You think anyone with more money than you is “rich”. The rich would see this guy as exactly the same as you or me - he had a few million.

            Explain how he exploited anyone. Include details and cite sources.

    I enjoy when nature puts us in our place. Sad for his family, but I’m always on Team Lion.

    They told us never leave the tent at night. It was safe in the tent but you needed to go don’t go to the latrine, go just outside the flap.

    What kind of businessman?

    It matters if they were selling wind turbines or fossil fuels.
