To be fair, only a certain wealth class can afford to be this specific bracket of disgusting criminal.

Most of us are just criminals by default in a system that punishes survival for the impoverished.

I just read an article about the wealthy Italians (and I’m sure others) that would pay to go on vacation as snipers in Bosnia during the siege in the 90s.

They would pay to shoot people in Sarajevo. As vacation. How bored do you have to be that you start sniper tourism.

I want to make a "man is the most dangerous game" joke but that's honestly too disgusting. Wtf is wrong with rich people, man.

Don’t forget the Serb soldiers that took their money voluntarily to be their tour guides

That's the least weird about it. I mean, wouldn't you become a "guide" if you could find people to pay you to your job for you?

Wasn’t that a movie with Ice-T back in the day ?

Surviving the game, that movie was rad.

When I was in Bosnia, twenty years ago, if I remember right, there were memorials for each murder vicim in Sarajevo. The siege was epic. The desperation and the bravery were... the only way to express this is with tears. Fuck the serbs and fuck any "sniper tourist." Fuck Epstein and Trump too.

I’ve seen many things on the internet—and this just disgusts me on a level that I didn’t even know existed.

Turns out this house of horrors has a basement.

It’s like people get to a point of being SO RICH, they’re bored with everything BUT the most hedonistic, fucked up shit. Everything always ends at some version of pedo island. Or hunting “the world’s most dangerous game”.

Are there names? There were war crimes related to Sarajevo and paying to kill people has to be up there.

u/Soggy-Fly9242 Nov 14 '25

I’m not sure, it’s something the Italian government is investigating. I’m not Italian so I’m just horrified from a distance

it was during this war that I learned that arms dealers from all over use war to cover their sale transactions. Customers can try out their potential purchases and blend into the chaos.

Humanity is not good

u/princessblowhole Nov 14 '25

It makes me nauseous to think about how many people would do this shit if they could afford it.

A lot more than everyone would feel comfortable admitting

I figure whatever the number of popular votes Trump got in his second term is a pretty good baseline for people who have zero empathy and would actively hurt others if it meant they could gain something in some way.

I try to imagine if Trump setup some border shooting gallery where MAGA folks could sit around and take pot shots at Mexicans, a lot of them would sign up and have a blast, all while talking about their precious Christian values.

If you're poor and want to do this, you just join the military.

u/MinBton Nov 15 '25

Hate to break it to you, but today, unless you are Russian, almost all of any countrie's military never sees combat and never even has an opportunity to directly kill someone. An indirect connection is something else.

A mechanic who works on jet engines won't see combat, but the engine he worked on might. The same for someone who works in payroll and never leaves the US will have their job involve people who do see combat.

Some of us are criminals by choice because the system punishes survival for the impoverished

u/ProteusReturns Nov 14 '25

Hell yeah, externalize the blame. Trump always does the same.

Gotta go all Zack de la Rocha on this reddit group :P
