People at both ends of the spectrum are absolute fuckwits.
They're also the ones quickest to polarise the issue and forget/ignore the middle ground.
Left/right-leaning is fine. It's a sliding scale at the end of the day, not two sides of a coin, but the further you get to one extreme or the other, the more moronic and blinkered you become.
The radical left assume they're superior, the radical right assume they're superior, and any identification or sympathy directed towards the 'baddies' automatically makes you a traitor or a shill.
This excessive, hardline partisanship we've adopted from America is going to be our ruin. Fuck me, we've already got groups of the bellends marching on Trafalgar Square, painting St George's Crosses on roundabouts and idolising Charlie Kirk
The kneejerk reaction that you and My Name had to my opinion of the situation and your willingness to label the shooting an 'execution' shows the same kind of radicalisation, just towards the other extreme.
And let's not forget that the left are pushing the Ideal Victim narrative in favour of Alex Pretti just as hard (if not harder) while the right are pushing the 'Leftist Proto-terrorist' angle. The truth is almost always somewhere in the middle.

I am My Name, you are replying to me, if you check
and I never said they executed him, I said "they just break the law, killing with impunity". My main point was that the dead guy did nothing illegal and idiotic or not, what he did do "should not mean a death sentence from federal employees".
That seems to get you upset for some reason, and I do not regard it as a knee jerk reaction personally. If you're not upset, you're making rather long posts for someone who isn't...
