I swear, I'm really not trying to pick a fight but they said "I want to..." Wishful thinking. Picking apart the wording of a comment I didn't even write or agree with that isn't itself illegal, advocating violence, or against a communy's rules seems pointless...
To your edit: I stand by that. There is no joke. That person (I assume) has an illogical feeling that they want to rip it out... I've had the same intrusive thoughts standing at the edge of a high-up structure! If they actually do commit violence? Lock them up. Obviously...
Idk. I think it stops being an innocent intrusive thought once you've said it out loud on a public forum. It just feels mean spirited and rude. It'd be like saying "I hope he does a flip" out loud while in a crowd watching somebody about to jump off a building. Sure, he probably didn't hear you, but it's still fucked up and not okay. Maybe not that bad since nobody is at the risk of dying in the comment's case, but you probably get my point. Intrusive thoughts should be kept to yourself.
That said, I apologize for misinterpreting what you said as agreeing with them.
