    Not to go too deep into philosophy 101… you’re misattributing the value judgement of their abhorrent actions with their existence.

    Their right to exist is fundamental and all humans share it equally. The consequences for their actions are also something that should be consistent and shared equally. In a impossible perfect world anyway.

    Also… fuck yeah ACAB

      I do attribute their actions to their existence. They chose to do what made them worthless to society. The consequences of their actions is, amongst other things, that their lives are worth less than anyone else’s life.

      If you can only save 3 out of 5 people in a burning building, would you save the Nazi and the pedophile first?

      I wouldn’t save them at all. Their deaths would be a net benefit to everyone else.
