I don't know why he was killed (drugs seems much more likely, if not simple
robbery).  To always flatly suggest a cause that fits neatly into a
blinkered pattern of how the world _ought_ to be so as to give a satisfying
white-and-wealthy armchair view of "the revolution" is not thinking, it's
blind belief (which is much easier than thinking, of course).  Though we
will be solemnly told it's thinking.
