This story seems to have faded in the wake of events ad nauseam. We are all aware of Senor Luigi. However, most folks can’t recall the full name of the guy that allegedly Luigi gunned down. Mission accomplished.

I believe they are accountable, but shouldn’t be punished by death obviously

[–] Mr_Dr_Oink@lemmy.world 1 points 7 hours ago

Ah, to be clear, i am not saying the workforce deserves the death sentence. Absolutely not. But i do think that ceos of companies that consistently make decisions tbat harm and cause the death of millions of people deserve a harsh form of punishment. And whilst i wouldn't personally say that it should be death, i also dont have a problem with someone else believing and acting upon that belief. I would have more reservations on the type of punishment, but i dont think a more pragmatic approach is necessarily the wrong approach.
