This is a genuine question.

I have a hard time with this. My righteous side wants him to face an appropriate sentence, but my pessimistic side thinks this might have set a great example for CEOs to always maintain a level of humanity or face unforseen consequences.

P.S. this topic is highly controversial and I want actual opinions so let’s be civil.

And if you’re a mod, delete this if the post is inappropriate or if it gets too heated.

                  Yes, people voting for that shit faced fascist. That’s my fucking point. You get what you vote for. You wanted Trump, you wanted to ruin our world, our species, and everything with it. Now you got it and are crying foul like a dumb baby who does not understand the consequences of its own actions.

        No it isn’t. Neither major party has used their power to fix this system. Both have had ample opportunity in the many past decades.

        Due to the dominance of the FPTP system’s spoiler effect and of the two-party system, we can’t reasonably expect a mass shift to third parties. Therefore, of the two viable parties, neither will change the system. No realistic voting behavior indicates support of the broken system - if anything the lowering voter turnout is a general indication that they don’t support the system.
