The man died comfortable, surrounded by wealth and loved ones, never once having to answer for his crimes. That's not karma.

[–] Rhaedas@fedia.io 22 points 1 month ago

We don't know for sure. Maybe he was in terrible pain, briefly. Let's just keep that possibility to make us feel better.

[–] luthis@lemmy.nz 3 points 1 month ago

Who died? ?

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Were you there? How would you possibly know how comfortable he was?

[–] Dookieman12@piefed.social 16 points 1 month ago (1 children)

He wasn't jailed. He wasn't abroad. He wasn't captive. He wasn't injured. He was as comfortable as anyone else old and dying could hope to be. He was surely more comfortable than countless others he negatively affected throughout his life.

I don't like it either, but sometimes good things do happen to bad people. Sometimes bad guys get away with being bad guys and end up dying about the same as anyone else because karma isn't real.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

I agree with the way you put it here. I do think it's possible he suffered a bit though.

[–] chunes@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It was a very short illness. There is no way to pack that much suffering into that short a time. Suffering even moderately over a long period of time is way, way worse.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

I'll agree with you for sure that it wasn't as bad as he deserved.

[–] meco03211@lemmy.world 39 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Now now. No need to limit it to Senators.

Lol karma only exists on reddit

[–] Dookieman12@piefed.social 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yep. Bad things happen to good people and good things happen to bad people every day. Karma is just copium for the masses.

And they both lived lives of excess and power into old age. Nothing can happen to Trump that would balance the 79 years he got.

Australia is home to over 60% of the world’s kangaroo species, but the country’s population of kangaroos actually outnumbers its human population — roughly 47 million kangaroos to about 27 million people.
