Lemmy was so much cooler before it was a cult. All this murder worship is the lamest shit ever.
I mean this genuinely, why not just filter the words: Luigi [depending on how much you want to talk about Mario], Mangione, UHC, and depose?
I filtered “game day,” Linux, and all of the moe communities, because I don’t care about it and it will eventually wear on me to see a bunch of stuff related to those topics.
He's honored!
That's fair, that's a good take.
But letting thousands die through selfishness is totally cool, right?
Asshole.
Don't bother with them. It's not worth your time. They either won't be convinced or they're looking to upset you.
The latter has been happening more frequently. Probably because reddit banned any talk about luigi and now all the high horse trolls migrated to lemmy to get their fix. Not saying that person is one(dont know, dont care), but I find being aware of that sort of activity is helpful.
No, believe it or not, also quite bad. Not sure how you even came to this conclusion.
If peaceful means of bringing about change have fallen on deaf ears, then violence is inevitable and arguably justifiable.
Like if this act brings about positive change in the industry when nothing else did, is Luigi really the bad guy?
I'm glad you at least admit the possibility that this act does nothing or makes it worse. "IF" is the key word here.
If peaceful means of bringing about change fails and you resort to violence, that's the definition of terrorism. It's not justifiable. We have a democracy and the reason it is failing is because voters are stupid, easily mislead, and uneducated about issues.
Our chance at Single-Payer to permanently solve all issues with Healthcare funding came and left in 2010 when the Senate Democrats (58) came up 1 vote short of the 60 needed for supermajority. The only thing we've tried since then is to elect more Republicans. You will be fighting an uphill battle against the vast majority of Americans if you join any sort of revolution over this charade, and the people you think you're saving don't want or deserve it.
Would you say the same about the civil war to end slavery? It's not always as simple as "violence = terrorism & bad" as you make it or to be
The Civil War was STARTED BY THE SLAVERS because the peaceful democracy was ABOLISHING SLAVERY WITH LEGISLATION.
And was it wrong to respond with violence back?
Take another example then, if you'd prefer. Was it wrong for anti-fascists to be violent against nazi Germany in the pre-war period?
The only people committing the loosest possible definition of violence on people with medical debt are voters.
This problem was created by the US Citizens because they vote conservative.
When you share an opinion with Donald Trump, it might be time to reflect and reevaluate your opinions.

I don't care if you defend mangione, I dont care if you want him to get a low sentence or have his charges brought down and commuted, but yall are literally unironically worshipping thats my fucking problem.
And by the way thats a shit test, Donald Trump says he wants clean air and water (hes full of shit) does that mean every environmentalist is a nazi?
u gotta pick one homie. we were literally unironically worshipping beans and jeans here just a matter of months ago.
Quick, someone make a meme of Luigi eating beans out of a denim bowl! “Luigeans”
Read the comments.
i have, i guess ur not picking up on the subtext at all lmao
This is a shitpost community. Of course we're unironically worshipping, that's what should happen with this post in this community.
If you want to see what people actually think find similar posts in straight communities
Didn't you make your account 4 months ago. How do you know that the average Lemmy user either does or doesn't believe that political violence is acceptable?
Right so theres a front page on every instance, if you don't set up filters then you will see what people have upvoted for any federated instances that the instance your on has not blocked. This fucking Saint of Homocide bullshit hits every 6 hours, it seems. Some posts are selling candles, stickers, and shirts. I'm sure crosses and altars are in production.
Beyond fucking stupid, I really expected more from this demographic, but clearly it's still the same shit-smelling apes who walked the plains looking for blood trails 20,000 years ago.
