After the headline-grabbing execution, questionable portions of the internet immediately began thirsting over images of the alleged killer while denouncing the corporate greed showcased by UnitedHealthcare and its peers.
Lol questionable.
Former Fox News host Megyn Kelly similarly slammed Mangione’s declaration on X writing, “His ‘lived experience’ is about to be punctuated by 3 squares a day and a fear of showering.”
Fuck you.
…with far-right political activist and former political correspondent for One America News Network Jack Posobiec writing on X: “There’s a reason the left supports murderers who shoot businessmen in the street.
“It’s a feature not a bug.”
You make it a feature.
After news on Mangione’s arrest came to light on Monday, Fox host Jesse Watters weighed in on the 26-year-old’s potential future in prison, claiming that he’s “not ready” and that he’s “gonna get annihilated.”
“I don’t think anyone’s ready [to go to prison],” Watters said on The Five. “This guy’s not ready. He’s way too soft. He’s gonna get annihilated on the inside, and good.”
“If he’s not gonna get the death penalty, maybe someone will do him justice behind bars,” he added. “That’s all I have to say about that.”
You get a fuck you too.
Of course.
Unless one is murdering an unhoused man of colour causing a disturbance. Of course.
rape good, murder bad!
Well, unless someone they don’t like is murdered in prison, because that’s just justice…
The left supports killing businessman in the streets.
The right supports killing babies in their cots.
If the public reaction to his gets one potential school shooter to rethink their plans and instead shoot a single CEO, that’s a net gain. Bonus points if they start talking about gun control and Democrats reply with “it’s too soon to talk about that, thoughts and prayers. Maybe install litter boxes in board rooms?”
“His ‘lived experience’ is about to be punctuated by 3 squares a day and a fear of showering.
It’s interesting how many still casually “joke” about prison rape in this country. At least when it comes to male rape.
If he’s not gonna get the death penalty, maybe someone will do him justice behind bars
This kind of pairs with the rape stuff. There are an awful lot of very gross people that wish for rape AND murder to happen in prison. The idea of our system supposedly being about corrections is a complete farce as long as so many people like that are among us…
Trying to poison the right wing against someone who stood up for them and for all of us. And the sick thing is that it will work.
I went to r/conservative on Reddit just for fun and some of them are already flip flopping. Most are getting down voted to hell, but it was noticeable. But at the same time I wouldn’t be surprised if it was bots trying to turn everyone against each other, as is tradition.
The elderly at my job all are rallied against the guy. Been trying to explain to them regardless of how they feel it’s a lens into the public opinion.
Watching the media machines gears turn with this one are especially transparent.
If it is him, getting caught threw a wrench in the meaning of his actions. Before he got caught, the only news was about how evil the execs are. Now it’s all about him.
Snowflakes lol
MAGA? Luigi is a right winger
I haven’t read his manifesto or anything but he seemed pretty much against fossil fuels and insurance companies, what are we basing his political association on?
So no.
No right winger is going out and following AOC or saying the stuff he did in his manifesto.
At worst he was a bit of a tech bro. Honestly he sounds like a shitlib that finally got radicalised into a leftist.
It’s complicated. His politics doesn’t seem to fit neatly in any box. If you wanted to pick out facts to paint him as too right wing for the right wing, you can do it. If you wanted to pick out other facts to paint him as the new coming of Weather Underground, you could do that, too. He’s also at a time in his life where your politics can shift around a lot, so posts from just a few years ago may not reflect where he is now.
I can say one thing with certainty: he hates people who are worth hating.
He was a right winger 2 years ago, he retreated from social media etc for a long while, so it might not even reflect his current views.
And if it does? Well, then he’d be a right winger and would have done more for class struggle than I ever did, and most likely ever will. Still very much worthy of respect, even as I’d disagree with most of his views.
All the Maga voters I know have been pretty supportive of the killer, despite the irony that they voted for privatized healthcare.
They fear “Government death panels”. I wonder how they rationalize a “for profit, private death panel” being any better.
I tend to forget the impact of 7 decades of rabid anti-socialism propaganda Americans have been bombarded with. They are not going to think “Sweden” but “Stalinist USSR instead”.
It doesn’t matters who it benefits, it’s the naughty word so it’s bad. Keep voting for the leopards.
Under a private system, at least they get to choose which death panel denies their care.
