That’s a bad comparison. The Wikipedia decision was made specifically because the experts – i.e actual scholars of genocide and war crimes – have a very widely held consensus that a genocide is occurring.

Do you disagree with the experts?

It absolutely is a violent act. In the same way that locking a person in a cage is a violent act, depriving people of the things they need to live is a violent act.

The fact is, simply asking these people to stop hoarding and polluting is not going to work (duh).

Is there a non-violent solution?

Killing other humans is often justified. For instance, it would be completely justified to kill someone who was in the process of shooting up a school.

In the same way, billionaires are guilty of causing the deaths of millions of people through their hoarding of necessities. Killing the billionaires would allow this wealth to be redistributed, saving potentially millions of lives.

Ah right, I thought she was the Republican nutter who had a three way with a woman and her husband. Different Republican nutter.

I personally didn’t interpret “mushroom gobbler” as a homophobic slur. I thought OP was alluding to the fact that she has about as much lucidity as someone who’s high on mushrooms.

I could be wrong though, I’m not American.
