Do you have that link? When I search for the manifesto I get this one: https://www.kenklippenstein.com/p/luigis-manifesto and it doesn’t say anything about coverage or getting denied.

You can kill an insurance CEO while being covered by said insurance.

I didn’t intend to imply that Batman was lefty.

Yeah, I get that this is an inevitable outcome. But now that we’re talking about it, instead of putting every CEO’s head on a spike, let’s try to do something more constructive. You know like creates systemic change to close the wealth Gap.

Demonize? What have I said that was incorrect?

All I know is that his family is very wealthy. I hadn’t heard that he couldn’t afford healthcare. Do you have a source on that?

You are correct. I messed up. I miss interpreted the post as suggesting Luigi become a leader. This is on me. Sorry.

Ah, my bad. This is what I get for posting while sick. Sorry.

You could argue that Luigi killing the CEO from a utilitarian perspective is a net positive. Things are still playing out, so it is hard to say.

What i feel strongly about is making Luigi a leader would be a net negative from a utilitarian standpoint.

Does the meme not imply that Luigi should be the next Presidential candidate? Is that not glorifying Luigi?

It’s hard to say. There are people out there who literally believe Luigi should be the President. I don’t know how to tell the difference.

Good point ☝️

Also batman didn’t change the systemic issues with Gotham.

I agree. The symbolism is good here. I just don’t like making a symbol of just violence a leader.

I agree. Do we really want to make Luigi a political leader then?

I’m not classifying Luigi as good or bad as a whole. I am just saying that making Luigi out to be some lefter version of Bernie is not a good comparison. I don’t think we want kill CEOs to be the message of left leadership. The idea scares me, like the pendulum is swinging to far the other way.

I have the position that murder is the least ideal form of change, but as the post states all less violent options have been removed from the table at this time. It’s sad that CEO (person) was killed, but it may have been an inevitable outcome.

I upvoted, but these kinds of posts make me uncomfortable. Luigi was a wealthy crypto bro working though a mental crisis. Luigi is not lefty batman.

I am very happy about the discussions his actions are creating and the overreaction from the upper class, but I am not sure it is a good idea to glorify Luigi.

In case you weren’t aware, we are in a class war. If you haven’t been paying attention to what is happening to Luigi. They are throwing the book at him. They want him dead. They want to send a message. It’s not about justice or law anymore.

Your only option at this point is to acknowledge the class war is happening or stick you head in the sand and try to pretend it isn’t.

Not necessarily. Don’t judge a person by their parents crimes.

Ha Ha, yeah, they are dumb… Wait, what does having children have to do with this? People who didn’t vote for Trump also have kids.
