A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Not at all. I said that now this has happened, the humans actually in charge of the decisions which inspired it might adjust their cost/benefit calculations. I didn't say it was right, I said it's understandable why people would celebrate it and I said there's a chance it will have an actual impact.
I'll leave you and your straw man to discuss further; you've got more of an argument with him than you do with me.
They will adjust their cost/benefit analysis - of their personal security.
Ah, so lack of solid opinion is your defense of your support of random killings. You don't actually support it because you don't support anything... but you don't mind if someone else supports in just in case it might help you in the long run.
You're a professional bystander, someone who hopes someone else does all the hard work in making your life easier.
