It’s pretty disturbing to see this news in the top 10 of a such community. Apparently, many people want to go back to the far-west where it was normal to use the talion law. And since many Luigi’s fanboys are treating him as a hero for committing his crime, i wonder who many people claiming he is innocent and has been unfairly accused are just hypocrites.
If the courts had intervened to stop Brian Thompson before his healthcare murder spree then maybe Luigi wouldn’t be being prosecuted right now. This trial isnt about luigi, its about covering up the chain of political failures that led us here.
A single death is a tragedy; A million deaths is a statistic.
Luigi killed a dad, husband, ceo, etc, etc etc.
Brian just inflated some numbers…
I hate how the world works.

‘Western style democracy’ has never been truly democratic because of how money influences elections and politicians. True democracy isn’t possible as long as there exists a capital class in society. The capital class will not give up its wealth without a class war.
The real uplifting news is bootlickers getting kicked in their metaphorical shins in the comment section.
I’d lick a boot if they payed enough, but they’re not. I get that other people are worse off than me, but seriously, what the fuck? The current regime isn’t paying. period. I’m angry and I don’t know what to do with it.
What makes a bootlicker is that they continue to lick the boot even when it isn’t paying off in the slightest.
But you are right, there is no longer any reward for participating in society. The wealthy have forgotten fear.
Life under Capitalism was better while there was a sizable Communist bloc on the other side of the world. The fear that the commoners might wake up and make their voices heard by force of violence resulted in all manner of concessions. Unions were stronger, public services were estabilished, workers’ rights were signed into law. Then the Soviets showed weakness in the eighties, and the Capitalist class was quick to invent Neoliberalism and begin the slow but assured gutting of all those concessions. While manufacturing consent through the media and convincing people that this was what they actually wanted.
Now we see the end result.
As for what to do about it, I don’t fucking know either. Because the only thing that is known to work would require a mass movement of a size that I don’t think even can be achieved nowadays. Society is too fragmented. People are too propagandised.
I have basically embraced doomer hedonism. Life will not get better, so I make a point to just enjoy myself as much as possible, I have no intention of breeding more slaves for their flesh-mill, and I personally hope to die young. (to a definition of young anyway, I’m this close to being legally considered ‘middle aged’)
Says the one who licks Mangione’s boots.
Personnally, i find pretty worrying that vigilantism is so normalized that a murder is qualified as “uplifting”, i don’t wanna live in a neo-far west where private justice is the norm. And before deifing Mangione, you should have checked his political background, because the guy is openly “anti-woke”, that means he likely doesn’t care about the political implications of his murder and acted in a pure selfish way.
The amount of fame he got is insane, he even have fanfictions on wattpad.
Ok bootlicker.
If the “Bootlickers” are the people outside of the club of the oblivious Mangione fanboys, i’m proud to be one of them.
Lol, it’s the Schrödinger’s guilt. The news is supposed to be uplifting both because the guy is praised as a hero for killing someone and because he is presumed not guilty.
Personally, i don’t have any sympathy for him, regardless he’s guilty or not, some things he said are really disgusting.
