Innocent until proven guilty
[flagged]
The father of two also authorized the murder of many by incentivizing his employees to defraud people out of healthcare they'd already paid for.
(comment deleted)
He is suspected of doing it, it is not proven yet and he is pleading non guilty
It’s interesting to me how there seems to be no redeeming feature other than that he was a father. It’s always “he was a father of two!”
I hate to godwinize but the "good family man" defense was typical for the most heinous Nazis.
Not a "redeeming feature," it's pointing out that there were other victims here. I agree it's manipulative to mention it (sort of like saying "Ivy League grad Luigi Mangione" to tarnish his ideology). But you are being cynical and agressive for no reason.
There were thousands of victims that died by being denied healthcare but we can’t see them or hear there stories but they are ignored and forgotten
Yeah I didn’t think about that angle tbh.
He executed a man who has murdered unknown thousands of innocent people. How many of his victims had children?
Prodromal withdrawal symptoms then bang. Sad. Disheartening that people who should know better than to celebrate, are.

Sounds like a random young HN-er that that got perhaps a tiny bit too much of the cuckoo part of the internet rubbed onto him.

> Luigi Mangione's worldview might not be familiar to most Americans [...]

That's really sad.

As an exercise, articulate the thesis of the article.

Extra credit: articulate the author's logic and support for her claims one or two levels deep.

Drivel.
