America can you not be corrupt for one single moment please
Nope. the days of pretending are over. Now its the days of gangsters with "fuck you money" ruling the country, and everyone else being told to deal with it. Basically Russia in the 1990s as everything is robbed and pilfered by private interests
That only happens if they're not stopped.
Well, they control the media, they monitor the tools we use to communicate with each other online. they spy on us. Most of the governments are subservient to them. And the few times someone actually does get through to burn something or someone, they pull out all the stops, and charge them with terrorism.
seems to me that the "world elites" already won the game.
I guess conflicts of interest just aren't a thing anymore.
IKR. They are allowed to veto jurors or ti move the whole trial in order to reach a nonbias journey but apparently that doesn’t apply to the judge? Yikes beyond yikes.
Nothing to be avoided anymore. Something to seek out.
This should be an automatic forced recusal.
But it wont be, because the billionaires and CEOs are scared, and don't care about the appearance of propriety. They want Luigi sacrificed on an altar to instill fear and intimidation into those that might follow his example.
Remember remember!
The 4th of December
A CEO dies all alone;
On the street he was lain,
cold, pale and in pain,
thousands of deaths that he own.
The decisions he'd struck,
Layers removed from the slaughter,
Were a shareholder's treat,
Your dead mother or daughter.
Those investors all wait, on that cold winter morn,
Still unawares of profit potential they'd mourn,
Poking at hotel breakfast, bored looks on their face
As was Brian's when he denied and delayed at great pace
Endless growth, deposed, on behalf of us all
Luigi didn't do it, we were hiking in Nepal.
There were 24,849 homicides in 2022.
https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/fastats/homicide.htm
Almost none of them, if any, likely required a nationwide manhunt.
Not one of them required an escort of 30 police officers plus a helicopter to the courtroom.
As far as I can tell, none of them were charged with terrorism.
And now he's getting as biased a judge as he could possibly get.
If we're going to start charging murderers with terrorism, let's start with the cops.
Say what you can about communism, but you clearly see that capitalism is so much worse.
lol and I say this as someone who grew up in Soviet occupied eastern europe. Trust me, there are very few systems worse than communism, well at least, that version of it.
Okay, move to Cuba or North Korea where they still try to pursue communism and where they still have not realized how broken system it is. You will surely enjoy life there :D
You think North Korea's godking is the accurate administration of communism...?
Communism lifted an illiterate nation of serfs into an industrial and atomic super power in, like, 50 years.
Which is to say just as bad as capitalism but approximately four times faster.
Heard someone say that their grandparents who left the USSR during the collapse in the early 90's told them something along the lines of "not everything the Soviet government promised us about communism was true, but everything they told us about capitalism is true."
But was it communism? Or was it labour camps and dictatorship?
They're the same picture.
I don’t think any of the nations who call themselves “communists” can actually be considered communist. Hell, most of them are pretty much dictatorships, which is the farthest you can get from communism.
you people clearly don't know what you are talking about. "conflict of interest" only happens if it conflicts the interests of billionaires
I knew they were going to try him in a kangaroo court, I just didn't think they'd be this obvious about it.
The justice system probably assigned the judge randomly. It's just finding a judge without wealth is impossible ... which in and of itself is a problem.
Country wide outage at the corruption involved with the health insurance
Health insurance industry: we can make it worse
Not happily married, I hope.
That’s definitely a conflict of interest.
I'm sure the judge will recuse themselves to avoid any appearance of impropriety... ^/s^
As Clarence Thomas has proved.
(Sack of shit.)
This judge needs to recuse themselves from the case.
"I swear, officer, that I didn't kill that judge. The fact that my search history indicates an interest in 3D printed guns, and I own the works of Karl Marx, AND I was wearing a free "Free Luigi" shirt doesn't prove anything."
Interesting, interesting, interesting, interesting.
I need the bootlickers to show up and tell me it's just coincidence.
The whole damn thing is a show. They are terrified. The book they usually play by isn't working. What will happen? The amount of support Luigi has is astounding. It's even a topic I tested the waters with at work and these people I work with make a decent living.
America is waking up. I feel it.
This is the sort of thing judges are supposed to recuse themselves over.
