This sounds like a regular murder, not a Luigi incident. Like someone else mentioned, her position isn’t that noteworthy, just a labor aristocrat. Also sounds like the attacker might’ve known her, so there may have been other reasons for the murder.
Sure, but if the question “is this a class thing” can be asked it should be. Being technically correct but uninspiring, unconvincing, and mostly useless, is in large part why communism/socialism has no influence among the people in the west.
True, although in this case I seriously doubt it is a class thing because:
The victim was a worker, plain and simple. Yes, better off than the average worker and probably closer to what people imagine as “the well-off middle class”, but part of the working class nonetheless. If the attacker’s motivations could really be considered a class thing, they were extremely stupid as they just killed a worker.
Luigi is still in recent memory, so the framing of this article makes it look to me more like an attempt to bank on the victim’s title sounding important, in order to get some views.
I agree, from the reporting it looks like just another “civilian murdered by somebody they know” which is much more likely than people think. But this wouldn’t have even broken the news if not for the current zeitgeist, which is what I meant by “Stochastic Luigism”.
Every boring death mildly connected to a hated corporation will get loads of attention, and even if in the end it’s nothing worthy of note, it’ll be a subject on people’s minds. That the Standard chose to report in this clickbaity way to imply she was a relevant executive in the headline is a sign of the times.
Labor aristocrats are much easier to reach, but often elicit the same reaction as proper bourgeoisie. So I expect them dying more often, thus cementing the fascist propaganda
