    Never said that wishing death was necessarily immoral but I personally wouldn’t feel well doing so, so I don’t. I still don’t see the difference in wishing death and wishing them to change if one is not going to take direct actions on their desire. Both are just internal states of one’s own mind short of action being taken to make those internal states external realities.

      Yes, you are when you say that wishing death is different from wanting perpetrators to change. Even then, this assumes that their changing would be enough for their victims to feel that justice has been done, but again, you don’t care about them. And now there’s no difference so long as the victim can’t personally deliver that justice by killing these men? Wow, how convenient, it’s almost like that way of thinking would mean that they’re responsible to end that harm to be justified in wishing death on these men rather than change.

      That your response was to attempt some bullshit first year mind-body problem argument is telling too. You seriously dont give a shit about why these men are bad or how their victims feel, you just saw an opportunity to flex some fantasy morally pure version of yourself. You feel right about that as long as you can be moral about forgiving some monster who didn’t hurt you, is now dead, and therefore can never challenge your stance on them? Nice, yeah dude, you’re so dedicated to reform.
