Comment on Even Omelanda' is disgusted
FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 17 hours agooh. They fired him?
They didn’t even take the loot he stole. he was jailed for a bit during trial. and then he was let out. With no charges, keeping his share of the loot… and letting him go on a fourth voyage at all is kinda a tacit approval of his methods.
He’s like the killer cop they just fire and let go back to work in another agency. Or that asshole manager they send in to get get store/plant/whatever under budget and move on out when things are under control.
not exactly a ringing condemnation of assholery.

I don’t really see how that follows, considering that governing and sailing are two entirely different things.
Considering that he was never considered for a position of governance again, despite spending the last years of his life constantly pleading for his privileges to be restored? It’s more like a killer cop being fired and blacklisted from law enforcement, but not catching any charges, and going back to their pre-cop career. Which is worse than it should be, but certainly not approval (and better than what we see in the States).
