Unhinged
It seems like the New York Post wrote “Shocking video shows NYC subway passenger putting unhinged man in deadly chokehold” instead of, you know, “Killer murders a homeless man on subway and, so far, has gotten away with it.” But the comments, dear god, there’s so many comments on Elon Musk’s Twitter talking about how the man must have deserved it (he wasn’t even armed) and how it’s perfectly acceptable to kill someone if you feel mildly threatened, and I just feel like I’m in bizzaro world. I’ve seen countless “unhinged” people throughout my life, everyone has, and it’s a basic fact of humanity that you don’t kill someone for being “unhinged”? God. What is going on.
