    What the world needs more of is Bernie Sanders, not convicts.

          But the user above said:

          That is an appeal to authority fallacy.

          Legality =/= Morality

          Not everyone convicted of crimes have necessarily done an immoral act.

          The American Revolution were rebels committing treason against the British Empire, yet, because they won, they are hailed as heros in the new America. Imagine if they lost, they would be the “convicts” the user above were describing.

            it may be true that he isn’t currently a convict, but he is most certainly going to become a convict, so it’s not entirely factually incorrect, just misrepresented.

            you can call it an appeal to authority fallacy, but unless you’re going to overthrow the government, you must quite literally, appeal to the authority.

                Believing he’s a scapegoat requires you to also believe the fbi is incredibly competent, and were able to find a person wearing similar clothes as the perp who also happened to be in the same general area who also hated CEOs and then blast his face across the media then let him go for 4 days before picking him up in a different state.

                Not to mention if the “real” killer struck again, the whole charade falls apart in the worst way.

                  Finding people that look similar is trivial.

                  Dude isn’t exactly Elton John, it’s a hoodie and a backpack.

                    Cool, that’s one of several qualifications I mentioned.

            Maybe… maybe not

            epstein was a pedophile, nobody cared that he died.

            But if Luigi dies under suspicious circumstances, he could potentially become a martyr and spark more copycats.

            i mean… you aren’t wrong, he could die. Whether or not that actually changes the fact that the government wants him gone and out of the public, idk.

      They had a Bernie, he didn’t work, so they needed a Luigi.

      Aka peaceful revolution, violent revolution and such.
