Summary
Luigi Mangione, charged with the December 2024 murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, released his first public statement through a new website launched by his defense team.
He expressed gratitude for widespread support and acknowledged the letters he has received. The website provides case updates and a fundraiser, which has raised over $400,000.
Mangione has gained a following among those frustrated with the U.S. healthcare system. A poll found 41% of voters under 30 viewed the assassination as acceptable.
His next court date is Feb. 21.
Because that’s the truth - there is literally NO recourse or peaceful option left. More people, would rather continue banging their heads against the wall and say “please stop being corrupt” to the ones who’re actively upheaving everyone’s lives and damaging them beyond repair.
Again, how the fuck can anyone sit there and say “…uh this is okay! Luigi is bad for what he did, but I’m totally okay with getting fucked”.
Regardless of how justified you, I, or anybody else is in thinking that, my one and only point is that it is advocating violence.
