This is amazing
“Everybody Hates You” “More Dead CEOs Please” “Deny, Defend, Depose”
Hey, saying please is sure to get results
There are a lot of good reasons to have murderous intent, but there’s never any need for rudeness
Yeah I know, but I would still like to see him and his Tesla croney both crash and burn in a very violent fashion
Well then once he has finished you can politely thank him for doing one of the only things he could do to make the world a better place: taking himself and his cronies out of it
I sincerely hope they startle in fear every time they hear a loud noise nearby every day for the rest of their lives. I hope it turns their bowels to water.
Remember that CEOs are just stooges to the billionaire class.
Gotta take a few pawns to get to the king
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
“if he cares”
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Is he going to be tried by a jury? If so, is there even a snowball’s chance in hell he will be convicted?
You need to petition the governor of NY. This is a state level crime.
I think the terrorism part of the charges are federal.
Nope. All state.
Welp, he’s fucked. Because Kathy thinks CEOs should get special treatment, which is probably why there’s terror charges tacked on.

Honestly, I think if someone ran for the governor of NY on a platform of giving him a pardon, they would win in a landslide.
Alternatively, maybe the jury will decide that since Thompson surrendered his humanity long ago, murder is impossible, as you can only murder a human being. Not guilty!
Biden should pardon him on his way out the door, as a last fuck you, and then he can blame his alleged dementia.
Biden loves CEOs and the status quo tho.
Well a girl can dream…
Doesn’t there have to be a conviction for a pardon to be possible? Ain’t no way this trial is finishing in time for Biden to do anything. But also what the other commenter said about Biden loving CEOs…
Biden pardoned his son for any offense committed since 2014 or something like that to protect him from further charges.
if he can do that he can pardon Luigi Mangione for any federal offences he allegedly committed between December 3rd and December 5th 2024.
It won’t protect him from state charges though (which are currently the only charges)
Mangiones best hope of walking free is jury nullification
Maybe if more terminally ill were committing the crimes, insurance companies would be less likely to turn away patients, and a lifetime sentence wouldn’t be so bad.
Also, jurors have power too.
Jury nullification is when the jury in a criminal trial gives a verdict of not guilty even though they think a defendant has broken the law. The jury’s reasons may include the belief that the law itself is unjust, that the prosecutor has misapplied the law in the defendant’s case, that the punishment for breaking the law is too harsh, or general frustrations with the criminal justice system. Some juries have also refused to convict due to their own prejudices in favor of the defendant. Such verdicts are possible because a jury has an absolute right to return any verdict it chooses. Nullification is not an official part of criminal procedure, but is the logical consequence of two rules governing the systems in which it exists:
-
Jurors cannot be punished for passing an incorrect verdict.
-
In many jurisdictions, a defendant who is acquitted cannot be tried a second time for the same offense.
Careful now, just saying this can apparently get you in trouble these days.
New York also specifically allows for Jury nullification in Article I, Section 8 of the Constitution.
That article is specifically about Libel cases, but isn’t necessarily limited to libel, and jury nullification isn’t prohibited anywhere else.
Additionally, jury nullification is the entire point of having juries made up from regular citizens instead of professional jurors who are experts in the law or panels of judges. A jury is the last line of defense against an unjust conviction.
Sorry to burst everyone’s bubble here, but jury nullification sounds pretty unlikely in New York in this particular case according to a NY defense attorney familiar with the type of jurors there: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-luigi-mangione-case-a-ny-defense-attorney-breaks-it-down/id1147092464?i=1000680245949

Class warfare in all its glory, going from the cold war phase to a more active phase.
Sure, there were warnings. Remember Occupy Wall Street? Peaceful protest forcibly removed? Well, they’re back and less peaceful.
edit: ’
Occupy Wallstreet was insanely stupid. This makes way more sense than that.
Occupy Wall Street? No, Eradicate Wall Street!
Yes, but this seems to be the working class vs the bourgeoisie. The way it was meant to be.
Let me cash out my 401k first
The way it was meant to be.
The way the schools, run by the wealthiest, taught you it should be to preserve the status quo and established wealth.
Did you mean “shouldn’t”?
What school did you go to that taught you anything about class war?
I think you might be making an interesting point but I can’t tell
In Europe, I guess. History books there are full of “and then the people got angry so they banished/killed/robbed/demolished the ruler/nobility/clergy”.
Be the change you want to see in the world
What is the opposite of “don’t dead open inside”? This works both ways.
Shades by design
Beautiful!
Designporn?
Luigi is more popular than Congress right now.
I’m more popular that Congress.
He’s done more to fix our shit situation than they have. Fucking worthless cunts.
What have you done recently ? (Just asking, not in a condecsending way)
That’s like the lowest bar imaginable
Yeah, but that’s not hard. I think the approval rating of some strands of herpes is higher than congress.
More popular than JFK.
Coming soon to a terrorism charge near you!
Yeah, so weird they would be selling these stickers that could be put really anywhere. Absolutely disgusting if someone purchased hundreds of these and started just sticking them everywhere. https://www.makestickers.com/design/24120721P6VV-pij1gytwuonpuv2ibielr6lk
this is the lesson that children need to learn for a better future
The sign in the back “money won’t save you everybody hates you” sounds like a nursery rhyme. I like it.
That one CEO filming, thinking of the hazard pay bonus he can give himself now.
I love that the cameraman pans over to all the CEOs wearing the same suit, staring at the protestors
money won’t save you everybody hates you
You should not have come here, Stalker
This was exactly where my brain went!
I suspect private security company stocks are about to go way up.
Not a lot of people are willing to put themselves between a CEO and a mass riot for $14/hr.
Lol where have you been? People doing monumentally stupid, dangerous and violent things for insultingly small sums of money for rich assholes is kind of our thing. If you offer silver for violence there will always be takers.
Disagree. People do things for profit to a point. As a veteran who’s done security work, soldiers and veterans start because of a faith in doing the right thing. Security work doesn’t have that ideology. I don’t know about you, but I’d rather go home to my family over fighting off 500 people angry about their lives. It’s an entirely different motivation, with entirely different standards to be covered. Money doesn’t buy values or standards. And when you buy security, that security can be bought. Nobody is untouchable.
People fight for dictators against their fellow citizens
Because the dictator will kill them if they don’t.
Their CEOs might want to keep a low profile.
I would like a Tiktok account of videos of terrified CEOs sprinting to their vehicles with a bored looking security guard trailing behind them.
It’s Italian plumbers and CEO goombas all the way down
I’ve stated previously that my next career move would be into security because there isn’t a single American who wouldn’t step out of the way at the first available opportunity and they fucking know it, so foreign security is the only real option … and I don’t need to tell them it isn’t any better just because they didn’t personally screw us.
Removed by mod
I can’t stand people that communicate like you.
That’s just, like, your opinion, man.
We need a linguist here.
