      LMAO, like father, like daughter. Not all people deserve sympathy (most do, she very clearly doesn't)

      Capitalism comes for us all in the end.

      But it is crazy to think of how much wealth Batista off-shored prior to fleeing the country, only to see people two generations later scrapping their knees on the poverty line. I can't help but suspect the family got vultured by opportunists and scammers following their exodus.

    I don't feel great about laughing at the misfortune of others, but its pretty ironic that this family preferred to throw their own children into the literal gutter rather than surrender their property and privilege to the people.

        I'm not about to train myself to feel good about other people suffering, even evil people. I'd rather figure out how to make them irrelevant and dismantle the systems that produce them. We live in a world molded by trauma, inflicting trauma on abusers doesn't change them, its just more of the same old thing.

        I don't feel bad, I just don't see the point in celebrating misfortune.
