Lotta people showing a lack of serial killer knowledge

Like, are you saying i should try to be come and oligarch?
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 1 year ago
No, you could just as easily become someone who does arts and crafts with human remains.
Clinicallydepressedpoochie@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Human remains are so hard to come by. I prefer human waste, much more abundant and it really capture the spirit of america.

Gross. I thought this was gonna be about authors, artists, or inventors.
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Are you saying Ed Gein wasn’t an artist? And he invented the woman suit!
b161@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 year ago
Ok I had to look up Ed Gein and it all makes sense now. 😂 Good one!

it is never too late to exploit other human beings, it is enough to have Capital and the blessing of the bourgeois State

Look at the president, mid 90’s, barely able to make bowels with mouth noises, but he’s expertly dismantling the country. Not slowly like the Dumas Republican party. He’s been doing this in days! While we go to work our asses off every day, this old fuck goes to work in destroying our economy and our children’s futures!
All to show you, it’s never too late.
spankmonkey@lemmy.world 1 year ago
In Gein’s case, you don’t even need the capital or blessing!

It’s crazy to me that Ray Kroc was already in the unedited version of this image… Dude Edison’d the fuck outta McDonald’s.
HobbitFoot@thelemmy.club 1 year ago
I’d consider it worse than Edison. Edison’s real contribution to technology was the creation of a company R&D lab geared towards new products. He would invest in the development of the product before it became big.
Kroc took over an already functioning business.

I was really disappointed by the film about him with Michael Keaton. Even though they couldn’t completely hide who he really was, it was a hagiography.
VerilyFemme@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 year ago
…dude Musk’d the fuck outta McDonald’s?

That’s exactly how you start a fight with Colorado.

Step 1: … be born white
Step 2: … be born male
I was only able to achieve step 2. Too bad for me I guess.
saltesc@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Step 3… Be given shit for being male and white by people much better off than you.
Step 4… Get no reprieve from racism and sexism because someone before your existence looked like you and was these things so it’s okay to happen to you as revenge.
Step 5… Do the one thing white males way better at than anyone else; suicide.
And hope for re-roll
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Yeah, people are so mean to Ed Gein, aren’t they?

We’re hitting levels of delusion that shouldn’t even be possible

I’m not going to try and justify the people who think it’s ok to be bigoted towards white males. It’s not ok. I’m also not going to pull the “those people don’t exist” bullshit, because it’s bullshit.
But no one of that particular flavor of asshat is here in this post or comment thread. So get out of your own head and get over yourself. For your own sake.
Complaining about misandrists and/or people racist against white people is not acceptable behavior publicly. At best it makes you look socially incompetent, and at worst it makes you look like someone who wouldn’t mind being lumped in with nazis.
On top of that, the amount of people publicly anti-“every white male ever” is pretty damn low lately. Low enough that you can generally get through life as if they don’t exist.
It’s been over a decade since I’ve seen any news orgs worth mentioning run anything along the lines of “Young white men need to be taught not to rape”.
If you can’t escape it, change the spaces you’re spending time online, and the people you are spending time around in real life. I haven’t heard that sort of shit to any significant amount for a very long time.

i don’t think any of those four fellows in the OP killed themselves, and in fact, they all lived to ripe old ages.
Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Oh get off the cross, we need the wood.
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 1 year ago
I guarantee you don’t need either quality to reach Ed Gein levels of notoriety. All it takes is effort.
And a dedication to folk art.

Where do you live again? … you know … so we can ‘talk’.

Buzzfeed title: Who shortened the most human lives, the answer may shock you.
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Ed Gein only killed two people officially! The least evil of the four!

Unironically true.

What’s shit about this post?
I mean the whole „you’re only successful if people talk about you” thing is shit, but is that ot?
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 1 year ago
I think it’s pretty shitty how few human corpses Ray Kroc skinned on his own. Ed Gein did all the corpse-skinning himself. Rich man Kroc got the butler to skin human corpses when he wanted human skin.

I’m glad you didn’t try to defend Ford. You know that nazi would have been happy to get his hands dirty skinning various people.
capt_wolf@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Kroc and Ford’s numbers put Gein to shame though…
Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Ooh, is this demotivational adjacent? That’s old school material!

The joke went so far over people’s heads it struck a passing 737.
