    It’s easy to asses why there isn’t a true threat of copycats: most people care a great deal more about self-preservation than anything else. But the owners of this country don’t think rationally about the rest of us. We’re not like them, else we’d be among them.

    With the outpouring of support for Luigi Mangione, I had been wondering if we would see an effort from law enforcement towards monitoring people’s reactions. Anyone not expressing sadness and distress is suspect; anyone expressing joy is an enemy of the state. I guess the intelligence report is a start of an answer to my question.

    Feeling a little North Korea up in here.
