Please don’t pigeonhole me as a communist. I hold these opinions out of personal conviction.
I think, the differentiating factor here is that I don’t give a fuck about myself. If you kill me, who cares? I’m not gonna. I’m not saying, I wouldn’t flinch, if you put a barrel to my head. I’m just saying that I don’t consider it a particularly evil act to kill me in particular.
To take a contemporary example, I consider it much more evil to pump tons and tons of CO2 into the atmosphere, killing thousands of people, animals etc…
It’s not as direct as holding a gun to someone’s head, so you could argue that their intention isn’t as evil, but the effect is much worse.
And ultimately, yeah, in my world view, it’s never the poor who are particularly relevant in their evilness, because their lack of money severely limits their ability to be awful.
