If they can elect a felon to the white house, so could we.

I agree. Do we really want to make Luigi a political leader then?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 6 days ago

I think this is less about actually making Luigi a political leader and more about reminding everyone that the actual political leaders the working class puts forward deserve consideration as a compromise by the powerful people in the system, because the working class could at any point decide to stop compromising.

The System works by compromising, should the system through fuckery stop delivering acceptable compromise, the (by far) larger class has other ways to defend its interests.

I voted for someone who wanted to continue a genocide in order to keep her popular vote count higher than Trump’s (I live somewhere where my vote does nothing). ¡Viva Luigi!

Yeah, he's only (allegedly) killed one guy. That's not even close to rookie numbers for political leaders.

Well if the OP does literally mean to imply that they want Luigi to run or something I do disagree there, but I'm pretty sure they're just making a point.

It's hard to say. There are people out there who literally believe Luigi should be the President. I don't know how to tell the difference.
