As she confessed to the murder of her three kids, it's just a question if she goes to jail or the psychward. There's a strong argument to be made that she's basically insane but also mishandled as mental patient (IE. her carers are responsible for the incident is the argument they want to make). That said, I don't think being able to plead insanity should relieve one of culpability. It feels like a loophole to get away with murder, and it does get used like that broadly speaking. I also think that because she's a women she gets treated with kid's gloves, as if women aren't capable of responsibility. It's weirdly sexist and infantalizing. Like, they want to make the case that it was largely the fault if bad psychiatry and that she's basically not culpable. Idk man. A man in the same court room would have a much harder time garnering sympathy. Sorry for going there.

I'm not going to satisfy your autistic need for specifics. It's silly. I've been pretty clear, and if you don't understand them that's on you at this point. I'm done repeating myself and going in circles. The death penalty is a workable solution. It's group think all the way down. Very typical of leftoid circles. Especially relative to trans stuff, because they flip flop between advocating womens rights to later advocating trans rights at the cost of womens rights. Like trans in women sports or doctors calling women "person with uterus". Or trans in women bathrooms, etc.

Yup. It's culture war. They are treating this case for what it represents politically to them at the exclusion of the case itself. I think if she strangled 3 dogs to death instead of babies they would want her hanged.

The Hellen Keller of animals. And just like Hellen Keller, super obvious in hindsight to be fake. Obviously a gorilla doesn't understand what a climate change is, or the concept of human emotions like sadness or greed. Obviously the trainer is being extremely generous with interpreting Koko's sign language. Gorillas don't even have the finger dexterity to entirely do human sign language. It's pretty damning too that the lab who had Koko never let anyone outside near to do controlled studies. A good example of business incentives corrupting science. Koko turned into a feel-good mascot, just like Hellen Keller, and earned them millions. It might not even be entirely intentional. These animals trainers get roped up in their own excitement of thinking they taught their beloved pet to speak, not noticing their own influence. Eventually It's just becomes the path of least resistance when it makes your career. Hooks you up with celebrities and shit. Bad science. Bad.

Irrelevant appeal to authority. The technical minutia doesn't really matter to the spirit of a good standard. Basically, when there's zero doubt, which I believe is indisputably possible.

Hit em right in the ego. They are used to feeling untouchable, which is why it feels surreal when a mass terrorist attack happens in one of their major cities. American exceptionalism and all that. Worse things have happened since in other countries. I really believe it is national ego.

I contemplate my parents death at times. It's sad but realistically not that far off. I try to cherish my time with them but it's easy to take your day to day for granted. You'll thank yourself later if you go out your way to make some memories with them. Time flies.

Whole ass of question begging. I gave you a reasonable common sense standard. I'm not repeating myself again.

It's expensive to work in Europe. Between transport costs, high taxes and various other costs and more taxes. Often almost half your paycheck is gone before you get to pay rent. Someone gotta finance the welfare system. In some countries like Belgium where welfare is overly generous, many people prefer being on welfare to working as the effective income ends up being quiet close for them.

With a high enough bar for evidence you should be able to determine guilt for capital. There's no doubt about Breiviks guilt, or the Columbine shooters, or Shoko Ashara (who did get capital) or various other murderers. Why do you act like there's any doubt that they didn't kill/injure 100s? You keep going in circles, bro.

I didn't say any of these things. I just think this softness on serious crime is unserious and pathetic. Giving murderers a slap on the wrist because anything harsher would hurt your own feelings. You don't even want to see how that's unfair. It's simply cowardice.

Didn't watch, but Lindsay case is really similair to the OJ case in that supporters focus on what it represents politically to them at the near exclusion of the actual case. For OJ it was revenge for some different police brutality case, and here its about support for post-partum depression as far as I understood. It's either way dumb how a case gets coopted by culture war like that. It does a disservice to justice.

The most popular songs are about break ups and sex. Mainstream stuff is going to be shallow most of the time. Almost everyone gives the advice to focus your creativity on a particular niche that you excell in. Don't try to appeal to everyone. Necesarilly that will cost you your soul.

We don't have the same monoculture anymore because everyone is on they phones. Appealing to a specific niche is what works now.

Your just begging the question at this point. I'm just repeating myself at this point. Your argument is that it's acceptable to kill, mass murder and rape as long as you behave yourself afterwards. It's like you care more about murderers than the victims. You'd rather give people a slap on the wrist because you dislike perpetrating any kind of violence. It's so unserious. We're talking about monstrous acts here. Like killing your children. Not small time robbery. That just not how it works in reality. People hate light sentencing for serious crime. It makes the courts look weak. It's technocratic hubris to act like courts don't serve an emotional function. People want fairness. Safety should be a given. In your version, it's acceptable to do the worst things imaginable as you long as your sorry. No hard line. That just makes it easier to get away with monstrous acts. They where about to aqcuit Lindsay Clancy for killing her children.

That's a big justification for why ceos get so much money. To buy their loyalty. I also think that government leaders should be payed more, though it's an unpopular sentiment. They have a much greater responsibility and are personally affected to a greater degree and face a lot of hate.

Insane paychecks have probably more to do with leverage than anything else. An average person do not have the resources, connections or sheer power to manipulate and negotiate/demand like a rich ceo.

A small salary of a 100 million dollars.

Specialized work = protected titles/requires certification (lawyer, doctor, skilled tradesmen) Non-specialized = non-regulated work. Credential requirements are primarily just a filter. A high-schooler could do it with a little training. Typically required less credentials in the past. It's the job market and general culture that is elitist. Credentialism is socially accepted elitism. It's because there's shortage of high paying jobs and an oversupply of workers. All the office politics is people trying to justify their position by coming off as important. If there was a shortage of workers you'd see the office politics and credentialism much less, like when IT was fledgling as an industry and starving for workers. Lot of people got in without any formal training, figuring it out as they went. Now IT is much more saturated and its much harder to get in. Degree filtering becomes useful again.

I've got like 50 hours in Morrowind. I respect it, but it's wildly outdated.

My issue is more so with how non-specialized work is gatekept behind degrees. It's an elitist system that barely gets acknowledged. It has turned into a rat race of depreciating returns. You need more and more education, from bachelor to masters to PHD, just to be treated like a high school graduate. And it's not good for the academics either. The institution is being bastardized by business motives at the cost of developing knowledge. No one really goes to college anymore to learn anything beside the freaks. 80% of the value of a degree is signaling. That's huge. And there's a subtle arrogance to how we treat intellectual development as the only valid form of intelligence. College does not suit all life paths, but we look down on construction workers despite contributing more to society than the average office worker. It's terribly elitist.

I'm sorry grandpa. Lets go for a walk behind the shed.

There are probably many more who have been wrongfully sentenced in general. Corruption is its own problem, not just relative to capital. And I agree that there's potential for abuse, which is why you need a high standard and probably a bunch of additional bodies going through it (which I believe is already the case). You have to be conspiratorial to think like that. That kind of ass pull doubt will not fly in court. Breivik is the perfect example of someone who should recieve the death penalty. There zero reasonable doubt of his guilt.

Morrowind is the worst of the mainline Elder Scrolls games (everything that came out before Morrowind don't matter). It's like a shell of an Elder Scrolls game. Everything's there but lacking in fun mechanics and interactivity. Oblivion and Skyrim improve on the concept by leaps and bounds. The only thing that Morrowind does better is challenge. Oblivion and Skyrim are very shallow comparitively. Not just in terms of combat difficulty, but in terms of RPG mechanics, how you navigate the world and even the lore and story. My main complaint with the newer games is that they are too easy and that the world revolves too much around the player character.

Kingdom Hearts is so fucken stupid. Teen emo goyslop. If your girl is super into Kingdom Hearts its genuinely a red flag. Means she's delulu.
