    Even moreso, I think they’re worried this will normalize violence against their class, so they want to make an example of him. One Luigi can be imprisoned or executed; a thousand Luigis is a bigger problem.

      Ironic point, given making a martyr of someone is a better way to galvanize supporters. Big reason we… er, people, haven’t assassinated Trump.

        I think Luigi is like Batman. As long as they have time to prepare and strap up, my money is on the 100 duck sized Luigis.

          isnt he more like punisher/dexter. Batman is a goody two shoes, vigilante.

            Well yeah certainly not like Batman in all respects. But kinda like Batman in the sense of a well-off white dude turned vigilante who goes after criminals that the standard justice system methods aren’t equipped to handle.

      they had to consistently astroturf him on MSMS and some anti-luigi comments on places like reddit to bring conservative back under thier fold, not even the grifters were fooling them at the time, it took like a month later to use one russian issued grifter, jack to do it.
