First-time I ever heard that was on an old stickdeath.com animation, for anyone else who was around in the earlier days of the internet

Also sometimes I find you can play about with the speed of a song and it sounds better. Eg I play the first part of this (with the vocals) at 1.25 speed and think it's actually better (instrumental bit at the end at normal speed)

80s party tonight, so mostly listening to bangers from my youth
Had Sepultura - The Complete Max Cavalera Collection 1987-1996 on shuffle all morning, such an underrated band (and they're pretty highly rated)

Exactly this. A horrible human but I don’t want to want celebrate the death of anyone.
Yeah its always a weird one when someone so heinous is murdered. I take the view if your anti capital punishment you cant really make exceptions to that viewpoint.
I can be happy enough that someone died, and made the world a slightly better place, without being happy that they were murdered (whether by state or an individual). I don't find that to be a contradiction - they're two different things, after all.
On this specific case, I'd never heard of him until yesterday, but a very brief googling suggests that his death has made the world a better place.
Equally, I wasn't happy that Charlie Kirk - or Brian Thompson were murdered (and their murderers absolutely should face the correct sentence) - but both left the world a slightly better place.
I'm also not happy that strokes exists - but I won't shed a tear for Thatcher or Kissinger, and will fund-raise for better symptom recognition, and better treatments for stroke.

I think there's a rather big gap from saying a person some dying who abused children and someone who had an opinion.
I'm not sure Charlie Kirks death has made the world a better place. Not sure his young children and wife would agree with that sentiment either.
If people really think those dying of a different opinion have left the world a better place. That's something others can say about you.

Yes, there is - well done.
I am, you are perfectly entitled to disagree with my illustration. Of course his wife and kids won't agree with me.
Not just for having a different opinion, but for being utterly hateful, and spreading hate. Of course others can say it about me - it would be absolutely horrendous for that not to be the case.
There's a theme you often seem to come back to when you disagree with me - that you think it's performative and one-sided. It really isn't. When I express an opinion, it's my opinion, and it doesn't change depending on whether or not I otherwise agree or disagree with someone else. I defend my right to think that hateful people dying leaves the world a better place. I also defend the right of other people to think that my death, whenever it happens, leaves the world a better place.
It's called consistency - I have it - however often you assume that I don't, and call me out on not having it (you've yet to find one though)
Never doubted your consistency or bothered looking. I just don't agree with your take, it's your opinion and like my own it doesn't always make you or I right. I'm not going at you and I apologise if it feels like that.
Personally I like different opinions as they can sometimes change mine.

Fair enough - and absolutely agreed on the last point.
To clarify the "feels" isn't that you're particularly having a go at me; but you've often a "you'd disagree if it was the other way around" to me - and yet to be right - but that is just feels, and may absolutely be a mis-understanding on my part.
