Not much substance to this article other than saying it’s pretty much a ripoff of Chicago.
Also, profiting off Mangione this way is about as American as it gets.
Would be more enthused if it said something about the profits going to his go fund me.
My first thought was “yeah Luigi!” but the more I think about this, the more disgusted I feel.
This is a theatrical version of crypto bros making meme coins of mistafuccyou after he killed himself. Except worse. Luigi didn’t ask for it, and he’s being killed by this same system. They better be donating the profits to Mangione’s crowdfunding campaign.
Capital has the ability to subsume all critiques into itself. Even those who would critique capital end up reinforcing it instead.
^ this is a quote from Disco Elysium
Im a bit conflicted seeing it be done before everything is concluded. I hope it not like ember island players.
Once the star of the show gets murdered by the state some of the charm gets lost
Just like the ember island players version.
This just feels like capitalism whitewashing. Like how companies change their logos rainbiw during pride month.
The musical you won’t be allowed to mention on Reddit
Are they still banning people for that ?
Yeah I got a seven day ban for something pretty tame mentioning Luigi last month. Then a few days ago my 15 yo account for perma banned for wanting Trump to die after he made yet ANOTHER 51st state comment during the Canadian election. Fuck that place.
Yeah there’s a thread here on Lemmy about it. I was banned for a different but equally preposterous reason.
Same here lol
What a strange world
more dead ceos
what even rhymes with “luigi”?
blue squeegee?
It’sa Mee! Luigi! Come and see, the CEOs flee.
I just wanted some McDonalds, but they said I’d tried to flee!
This mysterious pipe inside my bags’ for whackin’ turtles, see?
Manhattan on a Monday morning is a place I’d never be
If they try me by a jury then you know surely I’ll go free
I’m speechless.
Weirdest timeline

Why is advocating violence against the rules when it’s committed against mass homicide? Is that not defense of another?
Because the servers are subject to their respective national laws and regulations and the governments are all to happy to take down uppity servers full of people who are opposed to those governments.
The rules regulating speech on our servers are not there to protect the rich or the system, they are there to protect the servers, so we can continue to call for direct action, even if we can’t outright call for violence.
It’s either regulated speech or no speech at all.
Mods don’t like Super Mario Bros? 🤔
lemmy.world mods don’t. They’re an outlier, and an easy problem to avoid once you’re aware.
edit: I should reframe that, rephrasing your post is a bit lazy: The rules of that server don’t allow posts that support the act in question. The mods enforce those rules, they have to follow orders to keep their mod position. I don’t know (nor does it matter) if they like personally like Luigi.
The instance I’m on is one of the many which does not have such rules. Make of that information what you will.
One can hope
