Counterpoint: why did police and media parade Luigi around as if he were guilty? What if Luigi is completely unrelated to Thompson’s death? Police departments want us to think he’s guilty and violent, his case is a lot more about legal injustice than violence right now. But hell if they want us to think about violence, we’ll do it but in a way that doesn’t empower corporate elites.

It’s also about freedom of speech. I’m on Lemmy due to Reddit bans. Did I imply I was going to be violent? No. Just talking about Luigi will get you banned, Reddit appears to be complying in advance to political pressure. Why else would they care?

I care! Thank you, you rock internet stranger. I would have never looked at a donator page but I saw this. Please keep donating, looks like Lemmy is very underfunded. I did a one time for 124.24 today!

Thanks for the reminder! I just donated $124.24. (12/4/24), advise you all to do the same if you’re able! Every $124.24 donation counts.

American here, thanks for standing up to our fascists!!!

If you post too many pictures of Luigi/Mario you will get permabanned. I’m trying it right now, will report back…

Seemed like cognitive decline to me when he did that. My grandma started making rape allegations near her end and saying absolutely unhinged sexual nonsense.

I’ll take a Gollum/Frodo solution over none.

Literally seems like 1/4 the comments of Reddit, 1/1000 the userbase. I think between API lockdown and “violence” banning, the entire commenting community of Reddit came here lol.

I got one person to try it! In eattherich. I thought about deleting my 15yr account but that is a much better use of it
