Charaty is disingenuous. it attempts to burden the working class by paying some of what little they have to alleviate the societal problems caused by wealth inequity and a system that putts profits for a few over the lives and well beings of those actually doing the work and their loved ones. If we had medicare for all then this poor beautiful child would well be taken care of. And All the money thats otherwise used to pad the pockets of people who spend more on a weekend vacation than you or i could earn in a dozen consecutive lifetimes could be spent on research and medical care thats often denied to bolster profits. Go guilt trip the insurance companies who are responsible for the deaths of 180 human beings on aberage every day due to claim denials. How many of them are children?
I'm just saying if you're going to throw your money around on a cause, there are better options than Mangione. Insurance companies denied claims yesterday and they'll deny claims tomorrow, you haven't done shit about it.
true, good point, you could pay someone to kill someone, wait a minute...
(for legal reasons this is satire)
Unironically that would have more "impact" than paying Luigi's commissary. Successful or not I'd rather assassins got paid than the private prison canteen.
im guessing paying him commissary is only going to cause more problems in prison anyway. Money is a hard to get item in prison.
Prison Commissary or Canteen is a system in the USA where inmates can recieve designated prison goods like snacks, transparent game consoles, radios, or clothes via the account being prepaid by the prisoner's friends or family.
Any money you put on his books will NEVER go to Luigi.
yeah, not personally, the dude has no rights, he's in prison lmao
Instead of petulantly thinking that everyone has started supporting random murder, maybe actually consider the reasons Luigi gave for killing this man and that maybe it's those reasons and not random street violence which people are supporting?
The situation is so dire, so many people are dying out of the greed of people's profiting from the crazy system that murdering those people seems like a reasonable response.
Think about that.
What sort of a situation would result in murder actually being a reasonable choice? Because America is in that situation.

i can think of a few. Gary plauche notably.
Oh there's lots of situations.
The point being that when you're in a situation where it is, it's already pretty desperate. So no arguing needed here, this just having happened is enough evidence to point to how fucked capitalism is.
Reasons mean fuck all, I'm a consequentialist.
Well the consequences of our health care system has you arguing in bad faith about donating to children’s hospitals being a moral spend of money.
Arguably, it perpetuates the system.
The fuck is in bad faith? I'm serious. Any penny you would have sent to Luigi is infinitely more impactful when sent to a real charity that helps real innocents.
Yeah well let's check back in ten years and see what the consequences were. The global society, or even just the American society, is pretty large. Things which change in populations of hundreds of millions don't happen instantly.
We know there's a strong reaction from the corporate class, vis-a-vis added security, charging the woman who quoted Luigi, etc etc. We also know that Luigi has immense support behind him.
And you don't see that as being a developing situation? You've just called it that "nothing happened his actions meant nothing"? I'm starting to feel like you're some corporate troll. I'm not saying you are, but your breath clearly smells of boot-leather.
Luigi doesn't have a majority of support in any demographic, their highest is 41% among young voters and thats when you add the somewhat supports and definitely supports together into one group.
And whether you support him or not makes no difference. He isn't a senator or a city mayor.

Oh corporate polls don't showed support for a person who murdered a corpo?
I'm socked.

Which one was Rosa Parks?
Ohhhh~ those corporate demographers! How dare they spend their life in academics for the system! /s
Rosa Parks wasn't immortalized for clubbing a bus driver over the head until he died, she was immortalized for peacefully abstaining from a system that a majority of people disagreed with.
If they actually were for the system, they probably would not have been murdered.
You fucking dare pretend these selfish pricks who would sell their own daughter to sex slavery for a good price are doing it "for the wider society"?
I notice how you didn't answer me asking which one Rosa Park was, because it takes all air out of your wannabe gotcha.
Im not giving any money. Its winter and propane is $20 a refill lasting 3 days. Maybe ill send a christmas card I have some stamps lying around.
But the outpouring of support including people wanting to put money on mangione’s commissary is most likely due to the fact that many people have been thinking this for a while and if mangione is indeed responsible what he did was he said the quiet part out loud. And now the billionaires and their executive corporate pets are scrambling on pr and damage control to scold the rest of us for our irreverent response welcoming revolution and class war.
