    Woah woah woah, slow it down, we don’t know if it was murder yet. For all we know it was self defence.

      Even if he did do it, it looked like a clear cut case of self defense. Brian was coming right for his throat.

      But also, there wasn’t a shooter. If you watch the video, Brian trips and falls on his own gun, shooting himself in the back 3 times

      I’m not sure what your point is. That’s why there’s a trial. A murder trial. To decide if he’s guilty. Nothing in the story claims otherwise. In fact, they go out of their way to point out that he has only been accused, not convicted.

      Also the law doesn’t matter anymore anyway, so nobody should vote to convict because they’re concerned about the rule of law.

    In response to hearing about your 10,000+ individual donations, averaging under $30

    So if that doesn’t send a message, maybe another CEO to spell it out?

        I’m just waiting for someone to decide that “Mario Party” is a good codeword for “conspiracy to murder the wealthy.” After all, it’s a group activity where someone plays Luigi.

    Luigi Mangione? I haven’t heard that name since he saved my life, here in North Carolina, same day as that United Healthcare guy keeled over from a heart attack

      No, can’t be. At that time I saw him singlehandedly organizing the “Save The Puppies” program, where he would stand on top of a bridge and as some psycho drove by with a sack full of puppies to throw over he would dive bare chested into the cold, cold water and swim the puppies back to shore stacked on top of his head.

      What about the CEO? I heard he broke his neck trying to suck his own cock.

      Epstein had blackmail, and as such was still a danger to the rich, even in jail. On the other hand, Luigi was just some guy with a gun who got lucky, if they can lock him up for the rest of his life, he doesn’t pose any danger.

      I fear that we’re witnessing a concerted conditioning aimed at ensuring the suspension of habeus corpus. At this point, it seems to be a bipartisan theatrical effort. I reallllllly hope I’m just being paranoid because if I’m right, we have no concept of the hell that awaits us (I’m writing this from a quantum decryption proof VPN)

      Better to keep him alive as an example to poors who have any ideas about attacking their ruling class masters.

        They’ve already ruined one woman’s life in Florida as example for daring to invoke Luigi on a phone conversation with her “healthcare provider” who was in the midst of denying her coverage.

          Yes. The whole thing with Luigi was very clarifying in blatantly showing that there is indeed a ruling class that controls the media and pushes a culture war to keep up from focusing on the class war. It’s not a crazy conspiracy theory. Then, just in case the message wasn’t clear enough, the three richest oligarchs lined up behind Trump at his coronation. Any denial of that reality is willful ignorance and/or copium at this point.

            I am so sick of people focusing on identity politics instead of the wealth inequality that is far more important. I am starting to despise identity politics on both the right and the left. Bernie Sanders was 100% correct when he said Identity politics is a recipe for losing elections and it is the main weakness of Dems.

    Luigi looks like he’s about to drop the most 🔥 rap album of 2025 in that photo.
