Luigi Mangione, with his head tilted to the side, compressed lips, and a furrowed brow, looking away from text which reads: “Killing innocent people for the sake of breaking the law.”
Luigi Mangione, with raised brows and an approving frown (like the Obama “not bad” expression), looking at text which reads: “killing certified badguys in blatant disregard for the law.”
This distinction is a lil frustrating for me because I just so happen to also be an amoralist, but it’s not inherent to illegalism
I loved this comment by @[email protected]
We can think breaking laws in general is good because it makes these useless laws harder to enforce if a lot of people break them. Ie. its a form of resistance against the state.
But [we can] also be staunchly against terrible things like random killings and sexual assault.
One doesn’t entail the other.
How many guys with Punisher tattoos and stickers on their cars make a big deal about hating Luigi Mangione, I wonder.
Aye yo, why my man Luigi in the post? We were kicking it in a McDonald’s in Detroit for the last 2 years.
i hadn’t had fries in like five years and remember how luigi bought me some? those were the best fries dude. didn’t you get a quarter pounder?
I 💯 believe he is a patsy.
I’m a moralist, but I firmly believe that laws != morals. In fact, what little I know about history has shown that laws often lean toward the immoral.
Laws do not reflect the moral principles of a civilization. Laws are made by the state, and reflect the state’s (ruling class’s) view of how people should behave.
Any “law” that protects criminal behaviors is not a true law.
