I will shed no tears for any capitalist. They know what they're doing. They have always known what they do to working people and they don't care.

And I assume the working people know what's being done to them. Despite that every morning they wake up and go to work. Capitalists tell them what to do and they do it.

Do we really think the world is divided into these people. Are we not workers when we go to work, and do very well, out of pharma, animal testing, insurance, fossil fuel extraction, animal farming? If the global majority decided to take the law into their own hands as Mangione has, what would be the cut off income for complicity and oligarch status- seeing as millions of them have nothing thanks to the west?

Perhaps we should all start sweating.

"Capitalist' includes anyone who's benefited from neocolonialism - that's the entire western middle class ( us). We know what we are doing. We've always known what we do to the first and developing nations and we don't care.

It also includes anyone whose ever eaten animal products from a factory farm.

Will I shed tears when one of is murdered?

Depends if I knew them I guess.
