lol. People are realizing they are cattle. And if a person realizes they are cattle… they get treated worse than the herd, and corruption is acceptable to put them under.

If citizens weren’t groomed and naive they would be at war. There’s a reason people get labeled as gangs mafias and terrorists and the truth is that it’s not because what they do is wrong in a human story sense, it’s because it goes against “them”… if it’s okay for nations to kill it’s okay for x to kill. …in a sense of realism. There is no difference. Between Joe Shmoe murdering someone to survive the game of life and a military man killing.

We pay tax tor out military to kill… it no different that x paying x to kill for their wellbeing.

Maybe if nations, or America could be honest about this fact, they would get more respect from their citizens. But they market identity and side step like snakes. And the people have to ask… who are we actually supposed to trust.

Fuck I hope so. Oh, but you better kill him so other people don't kill the other CEOs who murder for profit, because murder is only okay for money, or when the state does it to protect killers that are also campaign donors.

[–] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

It's hardly his fault that anarchists made him their poster boy, tbh. He was still in lockup when they were using him to promote violence.

Let me get this straight.

A group of serial killers go around killing people for fun and power.

Then someone decides enough is enough and takes one of those serial killers out themselves.

The guy that defended against those serial killers is inciting violence?

I don't understand....

[–] 6stringringer@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 week ago

Whatsoever the case may be, it is not violence. It is a simple case of self expression. Case closed. Let’s go have some interesting lunches today.

Sounds like they're grasping at straws to get a bigger sentence or something, Luigi stans are nothing but adventurist larps in reality

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

That's not a good prosecution strategy. I can remember multiple cases that were acquittals because they overcharged.

One is the Casey Anthony case, where they charged her with Capital murder, when they couldn't even determine a cause of death. As a juror, I'm not sentencing a young woman to the death penalty for murder, when they can't even tell me how the child died.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 1 points 1 week ago

they are hoping to have jurors dumb enough to charge for even 1 crime, if they overcharge people, especially with multiple ones. thats why its usually the people chosen for jurors, are people that dont speak up, retirees, or fully paid employees.

[–] phutatorius@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 week ago

Is he on trial for being inspiring? Because otherwise, the prosecutors should STFU about it.

[–] REDACTED@infosec.pub 3 points 1 week ago

And who inspired him? I think many CEOs are the source inspiration

[–] Alpacaaca@lemmy.cafe 2 points 1 week ago

i think they may have a point, but will that make luigi responsible?

[–] mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 week ago

well, yeah, hopefully

doesn't seem like it, though

[–] roserose56@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 week ago

That's the problem, not the violence, guns, injustice and violence.

[–] the_q@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 week ago

I'm pretty sure our capitalist lords are inspiring violence.

[–] bigbabybilly@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Yeah, I don’t think his act is the inspiration here.

[–] Juice@midwest.social 2 points 1 week ago

How can someone completely innocent inspire violence?

Innocent until implied guilty I guess

unhealthy levels of wealth inequality inspires others towards violence

[–] omgboom@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 week ago

🥰😘😍🤩🤪

[–] AeonFelis@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

The bee and the buffalo were also inspired by him.

[–] maxxadrenaline@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Oh nope! Its wasnt Luigi. He was just another poor soul. Weve had so many others before him to show us how powerful we REALLY ARE. Luigis just a victim IMO.

[–] himmyguap@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

That would be correct.
