    You’re not allowed to celebrate death in c/politics. Apparently.

    But I will say this when he kicks the bucket. I won’t lose a wink of sleep.

        I don’t see any moral or ethical issue with celebrating someone’s death.

        Objectively, if the guy was a bad person, then he was a bad person. Literally, the whole world celebrated when Hitler died, and nobody seems to have an issue with that. Now, all of a sudden, we’re supposed to be better than that?

        I think if you’re the kind of person, or public figure in this case, whose death people celebrate, that’s more of a reflection on that person than on the people doing the celebrating.

        Up to now I have bought two bottles of bubbly and three of spirits. The first bottle got consumed when I celebrated another thing last October. The other drinks went too so I’m just going to buy a bottle on that great day. Cheers, can’t be long now. Surely !
