Well, there’s 8 billion people, and now you have the ability to instantly learn about of any of those 8 billion people do anything wrong.
There’s still 7,999,999,xxx that didn’t intentionally drive into a crowd and stab people.
Other things that most likely happened yesterday, but nobody told you.
Hundreds of millions of people who just went on a first date.
Billions who sat down for a meal with people they loved and smiled.
Billions who saw a neighbor they’ve never talked to, but still enjoy that they see them most days.
Millions that went to a local festival and saw their town enjoy a community event.
Yeah, see, the issue with the initial post was the “reason” part. You’re doing the same thing. Clearly he felt he had a good enough reason to kill people. It doesn’t matter if you feel you have a reason or even a good reason to kill people.
There’s no objective truth to having a good reason to kill people. It’s entirely up to each individual what they consider a good reason. And it doesn’t matter if you say no reason is a good enough reason, because it’s up to each individual deciding, not you for everyone.
Sort of part of belonging to a species with individual personalities and no all encompassing hive mind.

You sayin’ 2% of the population just went on a first date?
Does is change the fact that people are still killing people for no reason?
Sounds like he had a reason. I consider it an awful one, but it seems he didn’t.

So we’ve moved into “what is the good” territory, eh Glaucon?
I believe there is an objective good, and that people killing in these types of scenarios are not doing it for a good reason, objectively.
We can leave it there, then.
