US judicial logic for protecting the political and economic elite has no bounds
State department: the guy on the right is clearly not guilty. There is clearly not enough evidence he committed even a single crime. No we do not want to see your evidence. Only evidence we collect and find convenient counts.
Also state deprment: jury must never abuse their powaaahs! You cannot rule Luigi not guilty because it is convenient!
More countries should follow Ireland and Poland. They recognized the ICC judgement for Ben and his backward insanity.
If Brian Thompson had been a black man on the subway, Luigi Mangione would be a right-wing celebrity right now.
He still is a right wing celebrity, but for the outlaw country set. He bagged himself a rich man north of Richmond!
He bagged himself a rich man north of Richmond!
Excited to hear his name included in the remix.
I have yet to see mass adoption of "Luigi is a terrorist" amongst the US population. In fact, quite the opposite.
Yes, but the legal system does not act on the whims of mass adoption. It's like that mom in Florida who got slapped with terrorism charges for telling blue cross blue shield the deny, defend, depose line over the phone. The harsh crimes are there to chill anyone who might step out of line.
iirc she didnt get terrorism charges, but she did get charged with some bullshit
The real hero is....WTF. How come we don't provide Luigi with billions in armament to see if he can take down the healthcare monopoly?
The war against high healthcare cost. Sounds reasonable to me. Like the first retaliation strike against Palestine seemed reasonable to me. But then Nathan Yahoo kept going and by the third day I was like dude WTF! But what did we do? We kept helping! WTF again! Then it was kids getting followed by drones and blown up to pieces. WTF!
Now Luigi comes along and fights against something that actually makes a difference for us the regular people and he gets to become the incarcerated person? The criminal? This is wrong. I hope Trump pardons Luigi. If not because Trump wants to do the opposite of what Democrats do, then maybe because the syphilis is eating his remaining brain cells. If he did, he would probably win the public like no one has ever bigly won the public ever before by gerrymandering the fuck out of every county. It's a great middle finger to be given where I would care that it happened.
Not likely. In an interview, Trump said people supporting Luigi is a "sickness." Which makes sense, because he's entirely disconnected from reality.
Instead of denying the label "terrorist", we should embrace and normalize it. It was always a rhetorical weapon for the status-quo, and we have the power to take that away.
The GOP has already done some of the legwork on that with their "We are all domestic terrorists" stunt.
To be fair , only one of them is under united states juristiction
Ehh Leahy law.
While I see your point to a degree, that Netenyahu pic should really be a picture of Biden standing next to netenyahu, because thats the reality of it, right. This renders US jurisdiction irrelevant. Netenyahu, Biden, and Putin too are rogue actors who shouldnt ever be allowed to travel beyond their countries borders again. If caught they should be rendered to the hague for war crimes.
Criminals dont get to set a personally convenient standard for what justice is. the US and Israel both ratified the geneva conventions, so they are bound by it.
That would make sense if international politics were any more than thinly veiled terrorism itself. The whole UN thing is an exercise in manufacturing legitimacy, and the fact people actually think that there is a world in which it holds the most powerful actors to account proves that it's worked.
They are a mafia with a protection racket, very little more.
I have a feeling that Luigi, a working class hero, won't be going to McDonald's ever again lol
Seems like lately whenever theres an awful event in the US, mcdonalds is somehow mentioned. Its like pure evil emenates from the place.
They still do have the best fries though, I have to admit-- although a large fries is $5.44 now. Evil.
Some might not consider him working class.
But yeah, unless they start having McDonald’s at the commissary (which now that I think about it, is not outside the realm of possibility) he probably won’t be eating at any restaurant ever again.
He should have gone to a no extradition country. Not Pennsylvania.
Does that title really require someone to be FROM the working class? I always thought it was more about who they fought for.
Take Che Guevara, for instance — the guy was from an upper class family who could afford to send him to med school. So was Marx, whose father was lawyer with a comfortable income who could afford to have all of 9 children (though not all of them survived). And John Lennon, who wrote the song that inspired the meme, had already had an enormously successful musical career and was quite likely a multi millionaire by that point.
Also, Bernie Sanders is a millionaire as well but still widely considered a hero by the working class because that’s who he fights for.
Point is, my understanding is that “working class hero” isn’t so much about the class membership of the hero themselves, but it’s simply whomever the working class considers a hero. That can of course include members of the working class as well (say, firefighters who risk their lives saving others, for example).
He hasnt been convicted of being a terrorist, don't jump the... gun
That's right, remember everyone, jury nullification
OP you should remove Benjamin Netanyahu and add a picture of yourself with the text " Terrorist, fan of genocide and fan of rape+child abuse "
Oh go fuck yourself
you may have a case of blindness worse than my school ThinkPad's scratched up camera, because if you merely read the first 3 words of the title, them being "US judicial logic", you would've realised how off-base your comment is.
As a person with glasses myself, it seems you might need to seek an optometrist, just a thought.
Picture shows anti-Semitism. Without the picture having to show it, it also means siding with terrorists, rapists, etc. and being against any form of democracy and religion that thinks differently. This anti-Semitism is disgusting and the way it is defended is even more disgusting. You animals have completely lost your humanity.. Picture shows 2 non-terrorist. This meme is pure antisemitism. ( even trump would make more sense on the right picture)
Its pretty telling to all of us that talking about complying with the geneva conventions = terrorism to you.
American? Stick to the Budapest Memorandum before you mention the Geneva convention's. Oh no, you shit on the Ukraine and say of course they should surrender to the Russians (let them kill them) because you want peace Oh and if Terror Palestine wants human rights they shouldn't be fucking terrorists! Terrorists rapists child molesters don't deserve human rights!
