Brings warmth in my heart to see so many supporters. Justice system by damned, theyve taken that system and proved it is two different systems for so long. Now we stand up for him like he stood up for us.

Hes a hero and a working man advocate. Violence is an unfortunate solution but the oligarchs pushed people to this.

When the working man gets no advocate or fair system then they will always seeks their own justice.

Big fan of the wanted posted, hoping somebody can bring these dangerous characters to a well deserved justice.

This story is fascinating.

99% of this country seems to form their entire worldview around what their preferred news program tells them, and the news programs are saying that Luigi supporters are a cult and he's Charles Manson, and murdered a sweet, innocent CEO who was a father and a husband. Meanwhile, we're all over here like... NULLIFY.

I wish we could get people to ignore the news narratives more.

Boomers gonna boomer. I feel like the younger generations are all on board with the mushroom kingdom.

On board with the mushroom kingdom

I'm making an executive decision and declaring this to be the slang for the position of seeking to end the current healthcare system for public healthcare. And to save Mangione from state ~~justice~~ law.

Thanks for all the pics. Don't leave Luigi alone, he has a huge heart.

Bald headed dude using it as a sign definitely fucks

If anyone plans to go to any of his upcoming appearances, just fyi the Pearl and Center Street courthouses are literally right next to each other.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Does he appear in two different courthouses?

[–] clay_pidgin@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 day ago

He's on trial for federal and state charges, so I guess so.

I wonder, as someone who has a name similar to a famous character myself, how Luigi feels about people using the Nintendo character as his symbol of rebellion. He is ex-game industry, after all.

Fucking liver transplant? What in god's name could be the justification for denial? Why even bother getting on the transplant list if Cigna can be like nahhhh? I'm surprised more doctors haven't Luigi'd yet.

[...] Thus began another assault against health care workers, whom the federal government reports are five times more likely to experience workplace violence than employees in all other industries.

This is already dystopian. People in the US don’t have a right to live.

[–] warbond@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

You mean that in the sense of "haven't been afforded the right to live" right?

[–] bokherif@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

Yeah sorry, shit wording lol. Like people need to fight the government and corporations to afford healthcare. How ridiculous is that in the richest country of the world

He got official merch? I would buy but only if it helps his defense.

[–] fossilesque@mander.xyz 23 points 1 day ago

No merch, but here is the official donation link: https://www.givesendgo.com/legalfund-ceo-shooting-suspect

I'm guessing it's crypto garbage. Let's see-

Yep. It's a crypto coin. Hopefully that's a link to donate it to his defense and not just a scam.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

That’s too bad. Bunch of others refer to soluigi, probably something similar.
