In some dark corners, this killer is being hailed as a hero.
By which he means all over the fucking country, which is unfortunately so covered in darkness there are no bright corners left.
Luigi is a global hero. I’m European and think most people of the world can relate since they experience the same consequences of (ruthless) capitalism.
Honduran here. My GF and I are getting a Saint Luigi portrait hung up on the wall. Dude’s seriously an icon.
European here and i see him as a hero. Many people here do. Even Rednote is full of Luigi memes in chinese of supporters from china.
This was my favorite that i saved:
Here are some:
dark corners = common folk
all over the world
Although I don’t approve violence, trend today everywhere is that countries are run like companies and common folk, especially poor ones, are considered as “garbage it the way”. Export industry being the nearest and dearest.
There should be a way to return the societies focus back to citizens. By the time AGI comes along this should be fixed or common people will be royally fucked.

I approve of the defense of innocent people against powers that aim to kill them.
Violence is justifiable when the alternative is to be killed.
UHC kills innocent people. That’s their business model.
All of capitalism does this tho…not just the health care industry.
You’re starting to get it.
LMFAO they can’t even put Luigi’s name in the headline?!
I’m surprised they even linked to the webpage: https://www.luigimangioneinfo.com/
Ok…why not just register https://www.luigimangione.info/
Am I the only one who’s hearing someone withdraw money from the ATM machine?
.com is usually cheaper and people know it better.
Since when is .com cheaper than .info? I’ve always thought .com was generally the most expensive TLD.
I think murder (first degree, premeditated, cold-blooded) is worse than that
Someone has died in both cases. So why?
SAY HIS NAME
Luigi Mangione, actual sexiest man alive.
The article says that some man said people “in dark corners” herald him as a hero. I guess the entirety of America is in dark corners? lol. clown man.
I guess the entirety of America is in dark corners?
- Certainly looks like it’s going in that direction…
- I assume you mean “the entirety of the USA”?
The majority of Americans aren’t insane Nazis, despite what doomscrolling might lead you to believe.
Also in the name of pedantry, aye, “USA”.
More celebration of murder as somehow “uplifting”. America really is sinking.
PS: Brigading just makes you all look insecure while increasing even more the hostility level of this supposedly “uplifting” community. I personally don’t care if a thousand of you downvote my comment. I’m secure in my conviction that murder is always bad. But others, maybe with more ambivalent takes, are gonna be put off by your mob mentality. And then you’ll have nothing but others in your mob to tell you how right you are and maybe lessen any doubts or insecurity you have. Is that really what you want from a community? I must admit I don’t get it.
How’s that boot tasting?
Yawn.
Believe what you want, but don’t characterize opposition to your shitty opinion as “brigading”.
But mass downvoting is a form of brigading, just look it up. And now you’re adding insults to the mix. Well done.
Again, I personally could not care less. But by behaving like this, you’re not encouraging people to share their thoughts (unless of course they agree with you, that’s different!). And you’re certainly not creating an “uplifting” community.
To be clear, I don’t care about your downvotes. I DO care that you’re excusing the inexcusable and helping to normalize political violence.
No, all of these people are telling you that you aren’t contributing to the discussion in a meaningful way.
These people are slowly but surely destroying the fabric of society and you’re sitting here clutching your pearls about murder? Shut the fuck up.
you aren’t contributing to the discussion in a meaningful way.
Seriously? What “discussion”? There is no discussion. Everybody agrees with you except me. And yet still that’s not enough, apparently. And what have you “contributed” exactly - except to say exactly the same thing that everybody else here is saying? Do you really come to a forum just to read people who already agree with you, and then write their own lines back to them? What’s the point? Validation? I don’t get it.
Shut the fuck up.
Just to be clear to anybody else here who wants a response: this was an exception. I will not reply to comments with insults, “shut the fuck up”, "everybody thinks you are [insert insult here]’ (is that supposed to be an argument?) etc etc. I’m not at primary school any more and I’ve got better things to do. What bothers me is apology for murder. So far there’s been about 3% serious good-faith attempts to justify it, the rest has been empty anger and insults. I’m happy to reply to the former. The latter I ignore.
I’ve contributed to the conversation by pointing out you’re a part of the problem, because you are. This limp dicked thinking is the reason liberals in the U.S. have been shifting further and further right these past 45+ years.
Had more been done to stop these people sooner, sure - we may have the luxury of not calling for people to die. We are running out of time, globally - and yes people like you need to get out of the way.
This limp dicked
Stopped reading there.
I’m sorry that hit close to home, but then again you are being detestable. Read the room.
How do you feel about this murder? https://apnews.com/article/wisconsin-asthma-medicine-lawsuit-walgreens-optum-8b4130ab404e513fbd68c9e02b51976b
Will you post comments asking where the justice is for this lost life?
That’s very sad but it doesn’t fit the definition of murder.
Will you post comments asking where the justice is for this lost life?
No, because I think murder (first degree, premeditated, cold-blooded) is worse than that, and I think it’s a problem that people are excusing it.
It’s clear as day to me what’s going on here. You are all angry and frustrated. You’re not murderers yourselves and you wouldn’t do what “Luigi” did, partly because you’re too cowardly, mostly because you’re better people than him. But the absence of “justice” (just quoting you) in America’s dysfunctional healthcare system is so egregious and so shocking (I agree: it is), that you feel the need to strike out somehow, to show how strongly you feel. And so you come here and excuse murder. Coz, wow, speaking up for an actual murder! That’s pretty big, right? Basically it’s a mutual support session for people who feel bad - like, really bad - about the state of American healthcare.
Personally, I don’t think that excusing murder is going to get you a better healthcare system. In fact the opposite is far more likely: if political assassinations are normalized, an authoritarian backlash becomes all but inevitable. And that will push healthcare right down the list of your priorities. And all for what? For the fleeting buzz of perverted righteousness that you get from excusing the inexcusable. It’s not worth it.
Moralism did not best fascism
That’s fair. The usual response, which I subscribe to, is that you have a tipping point at which conventional diplomacy (or politics) fails and then you’re essentially in a different world, of wartime (or civil war) where different rules apply. America today is clearly not yet in a state of civil war, so the usual rules continue to apply.
That is just an illusion, those rules never apply, it’s just a playpen for us civilians but death is factory made and unlawfully mass distributed to the whole world mostly by those who are supposed to uphold these “rules”. It’s childish idealism to truly believe what you say, in my opinion
It would be preferable if we didn’t have to murder CEOs to stop them from destroying our lives but they are sort of forcing our hands here.
