Bourgeois class traitors are welcome here.
Bourgeois class traitors are welcome here.
With open arms.
But the snitch that ratted on him is not.
Snitches get stitches.
You better be careful saying that from your instance, you will get blaped for inciting violence.
What do you call a Bourgeois class traitor?
A proletariat
Engels lived off his parents' money
And funded Marx’s work.
And wrote some really cool stuff himself
He was also valedictorian according to another article!
Edit: This article too— my bad
Perhaps he had a scholarship for being good at sports or was very bright.
and climate-change causes
must be a terrorist if he believes in science /s
I don't understand how this guy planned the assassination, the escape from NYC and then 3days later he sitll has all the evidence linking him to the crime on his person, and he is still on a Greyhound bus instead of chilling at home, or camping in the woods or something, anything else.
He also apparently gave cops the same fake ID he used at the hostel, despite having four fake IDs. My only guess is the initial escape was to keep the story alive for a week, then he either expected to be caught eventually or intentionally allowed himself to be caught so he could revitalize it and possibly start making public statements.
A better way to do that would be to take some pictures with his phone of the dead CEO before taking off on his bike, and then posting them as verification photos on a 4chan thread or something. But yea this is all just speculation. It's just odd.
Yeah couple of options here:
Maybe he is betting on the broken justice system and the jury to find him „not guilty“.
Well first of all you're assuming this is him. It could be. Could also be that the cops just found someone who's online profile seems plausible and are going to pin it on him.
If it's not him it seems it would be trivial to prove that, but if any of the information provided to us by law enforcement is true (yea I know big if, but why would a random cop in pennsylvania lie about finding the suspect?) then it's certainly him.
That's a good question. I could see that there might be a lot of downward pressure to find this guy and make an example of him. Maybe they were just happy to find a patsy to take some of the pressure off.
I don't think he really cared about getting caught all that much, just enough to do it and get away from the scene.
Why bother getting away from the scene at all then?
The longer he remains uncaught, the longer this stays in the news
Agreed, but he could have gotten away with it! His trail was cold, the police had nothing. He could have ditched all the evidence and just gone home, sigh.
Instead of one manifesto, have dozens or hundreds even. Start passing those out to make your motives clear and prevent the media from burying it.
It is profoundly disturbing how much social media information the media just.... dumped out there. This could even be the wrong dude!
I would scour my presence from the internet if I thought it even mattered. I'm sure there are mirrors of everything I've ever posted or liked going all the way back to the early 2000s. Even if I deleted absolutely everything (that I could find) and 100% degoogled it probably wouldn't matter at all.
This is a very depressing article.
HIS NAME WAS LUIGI MANGIONE!!!
@cypherpunks ah wow breaking news discovered thru lemmy! have been following this story and it's interesting to see where different parts of it have been revealed
Mama mia
Must be hard for the investigators when so many people are potential suspects.
I dunno, based on the article it sounds like they got the guy.
Gowron bless him.
I'm surprised he only managed to get to Pennsylvania after 5 days.

Femme fatale! I wonder how this would have played out if it weren't for that girl at the hostel flirting with him, wanting to see the man behind the mask.
