Justice is swift when it’s money on the line.
In totally unrelated threat to billionaire news:
The OpenAI whistleblowers death has been ruled a suicide.
Justice is swift when it’s
moneyruling authority on the line.FTFY
Good job, make that shit waaaay harder to convict 😙👌
The irony is that this was done to score propaganda points, but, and especially if Luigi keeps arguing the manifesto was fake and planted on him, this will make it harder for the charges to stick.
How can you even prove it was planted. Its your word against the cops and well, we may know cops are lying but the court won’t care.
That’s for the courts to decide.
The way the law works in this country is they have to prove the evidence wasn’t planted more than the Defense needs to prove it was.
Ken Penders insisting Archie’s contract with him was forged was enough to win him publishing rights even with Ken’s track record as a liar.
That is in practice not how it works.
It’s a disposable gun. Muad’dib wouldn’t have carried it across state lines, he’d have dumped it. The cops found it, and planted it on Luigi.
Huh, I guess a terrorist is a national hero. Hope others follow his fine work
Coughs in Elon
And now the words “terrorist” and “hero” have become synonymous, undoing decades of 9/11 imperialist propaganda in one fell swoop.
I mean I wish. But a man can dream.
The difference between a terrorist and a freedom fighter is who wins the war.
The rebels in Star Wars are technically terrorists. Lucas even modeled them after the Vietkong. Same for the Fremen in Dune. In the book, Paul’s holy war is called the Jihad.
In DS9, Kira Nerys refers to herself as a terrorist all the time.
To be fair, that’s also often portrayed very critically. But yes, the Bajorans are pretty obviously Jew/French resistance proxies, while the Cardassians are almost comically Nazi-like.
Or who owns the paper reporting it
FUCKING YES
Hopefully this should open some eyes, but 9/11 was literally America’s version of the recent invasion in Israel.
If anyone reads Osama Bin Laden’s manifesto, he explicitly states that Western support for Israel is one of the main reasons for the attack.
Yeah. I remember as a kid wondering why they would attack the states like that and my parents and every other adult I asked have different versions of “they hate our freedom” or “they’re Muslim extremists and want everyone who isn’t Muslim to die.” I live in Canada so I can only imagine how much worse it was in the US. To me, even as a child of 11 years old, that sounded far fetched and didn’t make much sense. Once the internet became popular I looked it up and realized it wasn’t as black and white, good vs evil as all that. Honestly that’s one of the things that made me start seeing the US as an evil country and start realizing what imperialism was and how horrific it was for the world.
At least he will get better healthcare in prison.
They’re trying to end that, Republicans making the claim you can and should deny healthcare to prisoners
No more healthcare, work without pay, convicted for bullshit reasons, locked up in conditions which are crimes against humanity… Americans call it correctional facilities, to cover up they are actually slave labor camps. Just like they do not torture, they call it “enhanced interrogation”. Even though it’s the same technique as torture, it’s ok now because it’s named differently. Because slave labor camps are named “correctional institute” it’s all good man!
America has truly mattered doublespeak
Well, look at that. We finally found what is needed to have a white “terrorist” instead of “someone with issues”: just target ultra rich people.
I think the difference in nomenclature may be down to how close the actions are to affecting real change.
Nah. Terrorism is a term exclusively reserved in the West for when rich people suffer consequences at the hands of those significantly poorer than them.
It is a completely valid, justifiable, and effective form of asymmetric warfare.
The ruling class wants to create the narrative that the only people who are allowed to fight back are those who spend lots of money, further enriching them in the process.
Somehow I’m less scared of Luigi than of those assholes.
One is a coordinated group working in lockstep to collapse everything as a primary political party that’s not only in power but in charge of every part of government.
The other is a single guy who acted in the interest of average people by killing someone ‘valuable’
The year of Luigi was 11 years early.
I’m also terrified by by insurance policy. Could someone do something about those terrorist?
Someone did, but just the one time.

We need more heroes like him.
Weird how the people shooting up substations aren’t being charged with terrorism…
Great. Can Americans now use that against police, or better yet, the government itself?
If he can be charged as a terrorist, so should the ceo’s that let people die for a profit
If he can be charged as a terrorist, so can Rittenburg, the Jan 6th rioters, and school shooters
Hell yeah
Ethan Crumbley was, in fact, charged with one count of “terrorism causing death”. And he pleaded guilty.
His lawyers should go for a defense of others defense. Millions of lives were in imminent danger. He had no choice but to act.
I simultaneously do and do not want to see the trolly problem diagram in that courtroom.
well, unless it results in a mistrial we’ll find out how everybody in that courtroom feels about the trolley problem.
You know the difference between knowing and understanding something?
Well I feel like I just went from knowing to understanding that I live in a fascist state.
you are ruled by enclaves of capital
Control is enforced via useful idiots.
Their terrorist, our freedom fighter
Hopefully ppl will realize the actual difference been the two
