Well ... um ... you reported that he shouted in your headline but didn't see the irony in what he was saying as you reported it. Nice job, Newsweek for supporting his statement through your actions.
The corporate media is in the manufacturing business...
Please stay alive, Luigi. Regardless of whether what you did is right or wrong, and whether you actually did it or not, everyone needs you there (including both prosecutors and your defense).
Keep your message consistent, and any correspondence with the courts and police vetted by a lawyer so that it doesn't get misconstrued.
Please have someone you trust by your side 24/7 or a live feed at this point. Please report any detainment conditions that might intentionally drive someone towards self-harm to the public. People everywhere are counting on you.
Has a comment ever been so close to an eternally echoed prayer as this?

Epstein was killed because he knew things and was still a threat to the rich. Luigi doesn't have anything to say that would hurt the rich anymore. In fact, killing him in prison would be incredibly short sighted by the rich - they need to stop the rest of us from mobilizing in his honor - which killing him out of revenge would not accomplish. The same news sources that tried to make us care about the evil assassin and helpless CEO will now try to character assassinate Luigi and make him a pariah. He can't galvanized a generation if he's a weirdo.
This makes me think of a fact I heard the others day; the reason "heretics" used to be burned was so that there was nothing left to have as artifacts to be worshipped.
Ie the ruling class was trying to avoid martyrdom of the burned.

What he did was right. Yes, much like how Hitler's death would've been sad for Eva Braun had she still been alive, Brian Thompson's death is sad for those who survive him, but the world is a brighter place for it.

They don't want him in front of a jury.
Regardless if it's him or not. They cannot afford him to get acquitted.
But they can't martyr him. That will be a death sentence to the US.
This isn't going to end well for anyone. This guy has shown a much darker picture of the US to us that we all know too well.
the thing is, I think they can afford for him to be acquitted on the murder charges. the way the evidence was presented, he had a ghost gun and an illegal suppressor as well. whether they were planted or not is still up for debate, but that's a slam dunk case that they can just give the maximum sentence for and move on. I don't think the murder charges actually matter. I imagine if they can't get him on murder we'll quickly find out he was manufacturing drugs or some of bs charge they can give hime another 20 year sentence for and if the judge rules they can't be served concurrently then bam, still a life sentence
Imho, as painful as it is, avoiding an economic civil war at this point does more harm than good over time. It kicks the can down the road until their side exclusively can use humanoid robots to fight their battles for them, and that just means get in line and die until collapse.
The alternative is even darker, our non-wealthy children being judged by AI as to whether the potential profit/loss of healing them is greater or less than their remaining projected exploitation value to the owners.
And that's just in Healthcare. Our entire economy has become this sociopathic.
This is silent slaughter. No one should confuse quiet with peace. We haven't had peace for a long time.
They don't care if only the top 5% is free on the backs of the 95%, they don't see the bottom 95% as human at all. I don't think society should continue under that bargain. It isn't worth it. No one is free until everyone is.
Remember remember the 4th of December.
This is silent slaughter. No one should confuse quiet with peace. We haven’t had peace for a long time.
"True peace is not merely the absence of tension; it is the presence of justice." -- MLK Jr.
Reminder that MLK was silenced because he was getting further into advocating economic equity, a bridge too far.
I think the FBI killed him. It's an objective matter of historical record they tried to blackmail him into committing suicide.
His family proved in court that the government killed him, but every judge in criminal courts refused to let the case go to trial, so it was only a civil court case. But the judge was convinced by the evidence and found the government guilty and dues were awarded.

They're setting him up to be too scared to face trial, so he killed himself. They talked about how much he was shaking since he got approached by police, he's pissing himself apparently. Dude is gunna get killed so he can't talk on the stand. The last thing the oligarchs want is for this guy to have more of a platform.
