You know, they just make clear to us how effective it was. Had they handled it like any other murder, there wouldn’t be a support movement that practically calls for others to do the same.

I mean like, people would still celebrate the ceo dying regardless. I mean, once the news reported “Delay, Deny, Depose”, that’s it. People would be in support.

Sure, they would still celebrate and support it. But having a single news ticker item “CEO shot” simply does not make waves like non-stop coverage for multiple days does.

There’s roughly a murder a day in NYC. How many of them have you heard about? Do you know any of their names or professions?

How many do the FBI get involved with? How much does the NYPD typically spend investigating each one? How many do they swear they will solve?

I want to know how much time and money they have spent tracking down this guy who killed one targeted individual versus how much money they spend on your average, non-CEO murder.

I hope they are fucking shaking in their boots now. Sounds like they are.

I’ve seen tons of posts in support of Luigi. The ones I see taken down are ones are threats of violence, including vague and ‘joke’ threats.

I think that’s pretty reasonable considering they are following the law of the countries that host it.

Lemmy instances or run by individuals in a crap ton of different jurisdictions. None of these individuals want to go to court for our free speech. If an instance or an admin or running out of a location where they are reachable by legal measures, who are we to say they need to protect us?

It’s funny watching basically every news outlet scrambling to try to and explain why Luigi has so much approval online, when the answer’s rather simple:

US Health Insurers go out of their way to fuck over people in their time of need (the old Delay, Deny, Defend), and the executives get rich off of doing this - so the people hate them, and are more than willing to spit on their grave.
