    You know what they did for Nazis at the Nuremberg Trials?

    They got a fair chance to make their case. Many were re-educated and reformed so they could be reintroduced to society.

    Brian Thompson didn’t exactly run concentration camps that made jews dig trenches to be buried in together, he made a company policy that negatively impacted the financial situation of an unknown number of people, so he got shot dead in a parking lot by a man he’d never had any interactions with.

    I think we should change the system. I don’t think Luigi did a single fucking thing towards that effect.

      The Nazis decided who lived and who died.

      Guess what insurance companies do.

        Luigi Mangione decided who lived and who died, sounds like thats the privilege what you want, too.

        The allies were better than them, better than you.

          The allies killed a fuck ton of Nazis.

          You’re not bothered by Brian Thompson dying. Plenty of people in NYC get murdered every year. You’re bothered that someone challenged the status quo, probably because the status quo has been good to you.

            So your fanfiction has evolved to portray the shooting as a western style gunfight where both parties were armed and met at noon?

      You just dont want him to have an effect because you disagree with his methods. Its already had an effect, and will continue to do so likely well after his trial concludes. Brian Thompson was a murderer, just like every other decision maker that works in health insurance. People dont mind when murderers get murdered. What’s the phrase? Just desserts?

        A lot of people keep saying there was an effect, but fail to say what the effect was. Then, they fall back on saying there could be an effect if we just had more murders.
