This is an amusing thought, but if we are being careful about the details of what our chosen imagery implies (which seems to be this poster's concern) then doesn't this imply we should employ a hands-off approach and the rich will take themselves out? Which, uh, not sure bout that

Like this post (name removed since my point isn't to call them out personally). Whatever else was wrong w/ the deployment (a lot!), it's insane to say they were "sending them to their deaths". We joked for weeks about the NG having nothing to do but pick up trash and stand around looking dumb.
