    I actually feel more or less the same (some memes will happen regardless ofc). He was just completeley replaceable. Bourgeoisie politicians, even worst ones like Raegan or Thatcher or Wałęsa, while fully responsible for their deeds, are just a tools of the ruling class and if they disappear they will be replaced by another, there’s always more from where they came from.

    Also, individual terror is counterproductive, even if it was against someone with real power.

    • It makes me feel better to know that understanding circumstances do actually work in a way of being more compassionate and feeling more humane. I am seeing a lot of people like celebrating X deaths in ways that they make me cringe in a “woah, angst edgy” and not just for Abe, but in general. The best thing I ever heard was when the DDR instead of killing all nazis basically reeducated them and gave them another chance as human beings, and fuck, now I’m too soft for this shit, specially when I know that years ago I was a reactionary piece of shit because where I was born and the people I met, and still changed… I can’t simply rejoice in the death of no one, comrade… I just can’t.

      Yeah, a random political assassination of a prominent figure isn’t good for the country, even if said figure was a monster. It just opens the door for more chaos, conspiracy theories, and propaganda fodder against AES.
