The superhero pilled brain of America will be the death of us.

There are no heros. There are people who are willing to take extreme measures because of their situations. He's not taking requests. He's not planning additional actions. He's not coming to save you. We have to do that ourselves. Kill your heros and join a movement that actually does something. Stop waiting for some vigilante that will never come.

[–] some_designer_dude 9 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

But he did come… And he shot a legitimately evil person.

Who will just be replaced with another. I mean, we're all here talking about it, but ultimately, nothing will change.


Edit to add, nothing will change without pushback from the people. Original comment was very defeatist, and change can happen, but not by sitting here with our thumbs up our asses. At least we're talking about it, I guess.

[–] FlyingSquid 1 points 9 hours ago

Oh something will change all right. Premiums will go up to cover profit losses and security teams and the surveillance state will be increased.

So... class war won?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 13 hours ago

Yes sir! On it!

We just have to let's just say, build a world without them. If you commit violence, you get arrested. But if you where to say, design your life around buying the least amount of stuff from corpos possible, then you would starve them of their income. This is completely legal to do, and hard to propaganda against.

Our problem is we are far far too dependent!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 17 hours ago

Who? The shooter or Luigi? Until proven otherwise, they are two separate people.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 18 hours ago (4 children)

It's one thing for this to happen, shrug, and not give a shit. It's another to glorify this guy.

It happened. I'm not upset about it. But this Luigi cat isn't my hero.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 15 hours ago

He isn’t some school shooter. He isn’t a crash out. He deliberately took steps to materially change the balance of power.

[–] OldChicoAle 7 points 16 hours ago

Dude just take the win. The perfect hero isn't coming. This isn't a Disney movie.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

This is what one would expect Plain Simple Garak the Tailor to say.

Out loud.

[–] Olgratin_Magmatoe 2 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

Garak assassinated a diplomat to a highly aggressive foreign power for the sake of saving lives in a war. Garak would absolutely value Luigi as a hero, though it would be through plausibly deniable language. And he'd be right in both cases.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

He would not see Luigi as a hero. He would see him as a necessary evil. Much like himself. Huge difference.

[–] Olgratin_Magmatoe 3 points 16 hours ago* (last edited 16 hours ago)

That's fair. Though there was still a certain glee he had about it. Specifically in twisting Sisko's arm into shady actions, and Sisko's implicit agreement.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

You’re waiting for a perfection that will never come. This shit is always gonna be ugly.

Support.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 16 hours ago

I have no idea what you mean. No clue what this perfection is you speak of. I made a pretty bland comment. Don't look for depth.

[–] qarbone 63 points 1 day ago

A hero? For what? He didn't do anything.

They should let that innocent man go free though.

[–] Roflmasterbigpimp 3 points 17 hours ago

Damn, thats a good meme 👌🏻

[–] grue 111 points 1 day ago (2 children)

So we're just trusting the police that they got the right guy and aren't framing some poor schmuck, now? I mean, saying 'The Adjuster' is a hero is one thing, but I'm not yet willing to concede the point that he and 'Luigi Mangione' are one and the same.

[–] [email protected] 87 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I am pretty sure that Luigi Mangione was my sales rep at the Apple Store in Orlando, Florida on the day of the shooting.

[–] frostysauce 33 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Can't be, I had him over for breakfast that morning.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 day ago (2 children)

That's cool. But Luigi and I saw a movie that evening. The new one.

I mean if they did that and the real killer killed another CEO it would look very bad.

[–] chiliedogg 3 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

You mean a copycat?

Better make 3D printers illegal. It's the only way to be safe.

[–] TheEighthDoctor 2 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

I meant if they are using a fall guy but then the real guy shows Up again

[–] chiliedogg 2 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

I'm saying they'll just say it's a copycat and use that to go after our rights.

[–] TheEighthDoctor 2 points 16 hours ago

Got it, sorry

[–] [email protected] 50 points 1 day ago (3 children)

You expect me to believe that his name is Luigi’s Mansion?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 17 hours ago

Google tells me it's actually glutton but I like yours better

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 day ago

If it was, Nintendo would be trying to kill him.

A Hero? Oh yes! He saved those orphans from that fire Count Olaf started, I saw the whole thing. Happened just as that United Healthcare guy got whacked, meaning it totally wasn't Luigi! Not sure why I brought that up really!

...I've been having dreams about ASOUE and it makes me wanna take my books out of storage...

Except I never had the last two books in the series (Meaning I didn't even know the 13th one took place on an island till the Netflix series)
