They should be. That's the point. They've ignored us for decades because the propaganda worked.

"Violence is never the answer"

Well historically, that's a blatant lie. And Luigi woke us all up to that fact. People can argue that the 3.5% rule here applies. But if it does its closer to 35%.

Spades are broke. Die is cast. Can't put the Genie back in the bottle. Can't put the cat back in the bag. "Terrorism" charges don't scare us. Their finger wagging doesn't move us. We can see the truth now. And there is absolutely nothing they can do about it.

Realistically, the death of Brian won't move money or power in any meaningful way. CEOs are replaceable like all workers.

What it hopefully will do is make people aware of the class war that the rich has been conducting for years. Ideally, no more people will have to die to make the working class understand their position, but I'm not entirely sure.

[-] blind3rdeye@lemm.ee 9 points 1 week ago

I disagree that it won't change those things. This CEO is just one of many, but this event alone has resulted in reaction from heaps of different companies. They see the anger, and they don't want to be targeted themselves. People will do many different things to avoid being a target. Many of those things are not at all helpful to society, but some of them are... eg. 'try to be less bad'.

I'm not saying that it's a huge shift that will solve all of our problems. But I do think it does make a difference.

True, I just feel like any of these changes to policies will disappear within a year or two. And while I wouldn't be against an annual billionaire sacrifice, I think that it just risks even more funding towards police.

[-] osaerisxero@kbin.melroy.org 46 points 2 weeks ago

This is the whole thing right here.

Luigi is much stronger than superman

[-] ALoafOfBread@lemmy.ml 16 points 1 week ago

Superman has essentially nothing to lose. He can't be harmed directly. Luigi made a significant personal sacrifice to send a message - allegedly

[-] Honytawk@lemmy.zip 6 points 1 week ago

Well of course.

Because one is a human, the other is a fictional character.

Luigi can go around burning every single Superman comic and Superman can't do anything about it.

Anyone notice certain YouTube artist's songs/music videos that state things that may be seen as unsympathetic or critical to the richie riches out there are having their comments disabled or downright removed? I'm talking 5+ year old songs or albums. Someone I subscribe to and enjoy their music and has never disabled their comments suddenly has them disabled.

[-] 31337@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 week ago

I've noticed a lot of very old Paris videos were removed this year. Not sure why. Google/YouTube seems to be heavily demoting them as well, because some songs don't show up in video search results at all, and you can only find them if you search for the album.

[-] Psychodelic@lemmy.world 32 points 2 weeks ago

That's hilarious. lol

[-] ChowJeeBai@lemmy.world 17 points 2 weeks ago

Black noir is in gunns superman?

[-] Sciaphobia@lemm.ee 2 points 1 week ago

I didn't watch that movie, but I think that's Black Bolt.

[-] whotookkarl@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Black bolt is marvel, not DC

[-] Sciaphobia@lemm.ee 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Oh, dang. You're right. I don't have any idea who it is then! I am not super familiar with DC, clearly.

[-] jaybone@lemmy.world 13 points 2 weeks ago

Now add the tienamen square tanks to the pic.

[-] HawlSera@lemm.ee 8 points 1 week ago

These are the same picture

Superman wouldn't never kill a CEO. Luigi wins

[-] Codrus@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Superman wouldn't do what that murderer did.

[-] Glitterbomb@lemmy.world 20 points 1 week ago

The punisher wouldnt do what any of those bootlickers do, but his logo is still on the back of half the police cruisers.

Guess we're even

[-] LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.world 13 points 1 week ago

Imperiex wanted to make the universe how he wanted, causing the deaths of many people and superheros, Superman said fuck that noise and killed them by pushing them into the hypothetical time before the big bang.

So I mean, Superman has already been written to do such.

But if you mean Superman who doesn't exist wouldn't kill a person that did exist, yeah that's believed to be impossible by most.

Allow thousands to suffer and die for profit? No, he wouldn't.

[-] Codrus@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Superheroes aren't murderers.

[-] daniskarma@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 1 week ago

Superman snapped that guy's neck before he could kill more people.

Luigi did his thing before the moron could deny more life saving treatments.

[-] Codrus@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Hate only ever leads to more hate, it's a game played best by children, and full grown adults that don't know any better.

Snapped who's neck? A Supervillians? Because that's not what I'm referring to. No, CEO's aren't Supervillans, they don't have any Superpowers.

[-] chiliedogg@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Superman's main antagonist supervillain is literally a billionaire CEO.

Yeah, the CEO really shouldn't have hated poor people as much as he did. Could have avoided all of this.

[-] Zink@programming.dev 1 points 1 week ago

Lawful Good versus Chaotic Good.
