        His death would be about as meaningful as a change.org petition. Theres more than enough people lining up to do the same thing in much the same way. Some who are actually almost competent at it.

          I’m aware, but I don’t think any of them have the weird charisma that pulls in so many gullible suckers so they’ll lose at least some support, and hopefully that’ll be just enough.

            Ah, right, the same kind of hope that this change.org petition will be meaningful.

            He’s hardly the first, and won’t be the last.

              True, but there are usually significant periods of time in between where there’s opportunity to restore some semblance of sanity, even if only for a while until the next asshole claws their way to the fore.
