Cant really blame one person. He/she probably got brainwashed by mainstream media propaganda that frames the CEO as some sort of “good person”.

$50k of a reward. Probably over 1.5 years of salary.

I think I’m getting tired of people putting survival over standing up to the system.

Should people that still work at Twitter get a pass for the destruction it’s doing because there are lower level employees that need a paycheck to survive? How about employees at Google that indirectly enable Google to amass data at such a large scale it becomes impossible to have any privacy?

I understand the need to survive. Does a McDonalds worker lose anything by not turning the guy in? Is 50k worth the potential long term gain for society if the rich become fearful?

Maybe after a certain point even those trying to survive should share the blame for the negativity their contributions bring. Where that line is, I’m not sure.

This transaction feels like a bribe to keep the poors in check. “Here’s enough money for a small trailer to live in. Have fun.”

Oh no, we can blame them. Fucking rat.

I don’t think they should be punished, though. I think we should save that energy for the CEO’s.

You must live a very privileged life if you can afford to ignore a 50k reward. A Macces worker certainly can’t.

You’re falling for the lie the top 1% keep telling. No, it’s not the poor person’s fault to be forced into taking any chance they get to make some money. If anything, blame the CEO of McDonald’s that his workers earn so little. Also, direct some of your wrath at those who now enjoy a lavish feast by keeping the money, just because the “wrong” number was dailled.

No. Just smart enough to not be baited by money they will never see.

You don’t need to be a good person to have a reason not to be killed.

Being a human being is already enough in most cases. His death does not change anything
