So 1) I am saying the state the person is in when they committed the offense is the deciding factor here. Biden was of sound mind up until about 10 years ago and the drop has been gradual. Biden has participated in plenty that would make him one of the most lethal people living before this time. He didn't just show up recently. 2) We are also starting to confuse consequences in the legal sense vs. The "karmic' sense, which I think is what you might not really perceive. I don't believe legal punishment should be driven by punitive thinking, but rather restorative goals. But I wish "the universe" returns suffering to people who have caused it, especially intentionally and to this extent to feel suffering themselves. I recognize this has no inherent value, but I like the way it feels.

Did they have Alzheimer's when they stole the car?
Dementia isn't exactly what you're describing.
Attainment of women is more about status to them than even sexual gratification. White women are the most universally accepted status symbol.
All the core beliefs and ambitions that allowed him to contribute to the death and displacement of millions still exist, just not coherently.
If a rapist becomes a quadriplegic, are they no longer a rapist because they lack the capacity to repeat the crime?
I feel like there is a sort of cycle in European history like this. European Jewry often had a sort of separate status under the ruling circles when the closest thing that most people had to "citizenship" was through the church. On that guest pass they often did a lot of the dirty work for the oligarchy through mutually beneficial schemes, like the arenda system, and as unrest rose periodically were often scapegoated and separated from their cut.
Cynically, there is a sort of equilibrium to this for the upper class. This is shaping up to be a prime time to scapegoat the inevitable crash as a result of geopolitical blunder. But you're not supposed to hate Jews until they tell you to.
Not to do a whataburger (that autocorrected but I like it) but there are lobbies fucking up our lives in all sorts of ways, and the defense lobbies are bigger than AIPAC, which is basically just a tertiary to defense. And that's just contributions. These people's stock portfolios jump by leaps and bounds as they deregulate everything that's the biggest corruption of all.
I hope he lives another 20 years and learns every day his first wife, favorite son, and daughter are dead. I hope between every REM cycle he has night terrors like a toddler. I hope he feels the constant humiliation and frustration of a pathological personality rendered impotent and childlike. I hope he lives in the promethean hell he does now for as long as is physically possible.
Can I still pace around listening to Ramin Djwadi Radiohead covers maladaptive daydreaming about it?
They'll start passing laws about how we have to be their friends and buy them a beer
Oh are they fascist again this week?
Yes. In the scenario I imagine in my head, but have no control over, "Biden" as an entity exists. But I don't really think "Biden" will ever really conceptualize his own wrongdoing, and that's even with a sound mind.
Like, it's not like he needs to "understand" that in order for the idea to be satisfying.
If you've spent enough time around truly terrible people, you know that there are people like that, they are never going to believe what they did was wrong. And usually they just regular shitty, this guy advocated for the death, displacement, incarceration, etc of millions of people.
But in place of guilt, there are other negative emotions he can feel: like fear, or embarrassment, and some type of grief.
