Oh you mean Mario’s brother‽
Luigi Mangione
A community to post anything related to Luigi Mangione.
This is not a pro-murder community. Please respect Lemmy.world ToS.
Who's that Luigi Mangione?
Have you heard about my best pal Louis Bigeater?
Ludovicus Manducus
lmao this is gold.
Could I bother you for an explanation? I tried searching, there are a lot of results for the Atellan Farce/Oscan athletic games, but I feel I'm still missing context to get the reference.
SIC SEMPER TYRANNIS
Luigi is a hero
Just stop using reddit to talk about chads like Luigi.
Just stop using reddit
That too pretty much. Other than some niche topics I don't use it anymore. Hopefully as lemmy grows those will have better options here too.
I did this and then they changed their algorithm to put things I'm interested in below every poat and they pulled me back in :(
That's weird because Luigi didn't kill anyone. He's innocent.
If I wanted to promote violence, I'd praise the still unidentified murderer of Brian Thompson.
Yea the whole thing smells like a stitch-up. Cops couldn't afford to look incompetent or let their massive manhunt drag on too long, so they did their usual thing and picked a vaguely plausible target and build a narrative to pin it on them.
Well done
I’m here because Reddit has turned to shit. They post a rule about upvoting violence will get you banned, so upvoting a comment that says FREE LUIGI will get you banned but upvoting a video of someone getting stabbed to death or a human being turned into red paste will just be another day at the office. Let’s be real here, they only want to silence specific people without saying out loud who they want to silence.
So you're saying a site with a history of posting videos of women getting hit "deservedly" is being disingenuous when violence is directed at the powerful? Say it ain't so.
Lu*gi
Look just because I'm in the middle of a LM/Waluigi slashfic doesn't necessarily mean I'm inciting violence. There's violence in it (Wario is an insurance exec, Luigi gets a power star, runs over Wario who explodes into coins) but I can hardly call that inciting violence. Where could someone get a power star in this day and age.

I fucking know. I remember the 90s; they were hard to AVOID, if anyone ever tried. fucking 'silent spring' shit. link to your fic please btw.
I found an article here for anyone else looking for a source that's not just a clickbait image.
This kind of thing has been a long time coming, it's why I started looking into decentralized social media in the first place. It actually feels less dangerous today than it did before the plague of GPT bots that make everyone wary of whether they're reading something written by a human or not.
I left facebook for diaspora in the early 2010s because I felt like an algorithm could influence my opinions too easily. If I see a bunch of my friends voicing one opinion, but all of my friends who voice the opposite opinion don't make it onto my feed, that will influence my own opinions regardless of how mindful I try to be about that. I was kind of addicted and it took strength to delete my account.
I started looking for reddit alternatives a couple years later for similar reasons. I'm really glad lemmy has finally taken off but things had to get a lot worse for that to happen.
Don't forget, you're subject to the same content manipulation here. Mods of many communities are biased if not outright propagandists. The echo chamber is very real. It just isn't as centralized due to the nature of the technology.
Is it on certain communities? Posted on prequel memes and got no such warning? Maybe the ban van is coming for me?
This looks like a moderator approval thingie. Normal users probably won't see anything like that.
Fuck Spez.
Wait, that's Spez? He looks like every rich boy who's dad got him everyone he wanted and he never heard "no". Chad or Trent or similar.
And, stopped letting you play with his toys when you said or did something he didn’t like
He totally looks like he turns the console off when he's losing. And not only as a kid.
But what about Green Mario, who allegedly unalived a healthlord in Minecraft?
The next names to be banned are Washington and Grant. Both used violence.
They are banning people for up voting Luigi, even.
Luigi is becoming more powerful as a folk hero figure by the minute.
We need the Fediverse now more than ever.
