    Instead of petulantly thinking that everyone has started supporting random murder, maybe actually consider the reasons Luigi gave for killing this man and that maybe it’s those reasons and not random street violence which people are supporting?

    The situation is so dire, so many people are dying out of the greed of people’s profiting from the crazy system that murdering those people seems like a reasonable response.

    Think about that.

    What sort of a situation would result in murder actually being a reasonable choice? Because America is in that situation.

        Oh there’s lots of situations.

        The point being that when you’re in a situation where it is, it’s already pretty desperate. So no arguing needed here, this just having happened is enough evidence to point to how fucked capitalism is.

        Well the consequences of our health care system has you arguing in bad faith about donating to children’s hospitals being a moral spend of money.

        Arguably, it perpetuates the system.

          The fuck is in bad faith? I’m serious. Any penny you would have sent to Luigi is infinitely more impactful when sent to a real charity that helps real innocents.

        Yeah well let’s check back in ten years and see what the consequences were. The global society, or even just the American society, is pretty large. Things which change in populations of hundreds of millions don’t happen instantly.

        We know there’s a strong reaction from the corporate class, vis-a-vis added security, charging the woman who quoted Luigi, etc etc. We also know that Luigi has immense support behind him.

        And you don’t see that as being a developing situation? You’ve just called it that “nothing happened his actions meant nothing”? I’m starting to feel like you’re some corporate troll. I’m not saying you are, but your breath clearly smells of boot-leather.

          Luigi doesn’t have a majority of support in any demographic, their highest is 41% among young voters and thats when you add the somewhat supports and definitely supports together into one group.

          And whether you support him or not makes no difference. He isn’t a senator or a city mayor.

            Oh corporate polls don’t showed support for a person who murdered a corpo?

            I’m socked.

            Which one was Rosa Parks?

              Ohhhh~ those corporate demographers! How dare they spend their life in academics for the system! /s

              Rosa Parks wasn’t immortalized for clubbing a bus driver over the head until he died, she was immortalized for peacefully abstaining from a system that a majority of people disagreed with.

                If they actually were for the system, they probably would not have been murdered.

                You fucking dare pretend these selfish pricks who would sell their own daughter to sex slavery for a good price are doing it “for the wider society”?

                I notice how you didn’t answer me asking which one Rosa Park was, because it takes all air out of your wannabe gotcha.

                  Just for clarification, you’re accusing me of licking the boots of St Jude’s Childrens Hospital? Which you believe is evil?
