    Luigi is a rich libertarian techbro bordering on AI cultist. he likes Thiel and Musk, he thinks that human immortality is feasible, that AI will outsmart us all real soon, and bought in in a bunch of other tpot/longtermist/ea horseshit hook line and sinker. he also only started caring about state of healthcare industry when it touched him personally. he’s not leftist in any useful meaning of this word

    this is his twitter https://xcancel.com/PepMangione these are his takes: https://xcancel.com/PepMangione/status/1780863519677940189#m https://xcancel.com/PepMangione/status/1750041444239434013#m https://xcancel.com/PepMangione/status/1600875886727016449#m this one is pinned tweet

      he also only started caring about state of healthcare industry when it touched him personally.

      So just like about 2/3’s of humanity, huh?

      Further, Guevara himself has a pretty shitty history with hating on LGBTQ+ for no good fuckin reason, so I’d say it actually fits pretty well. He was a pretty shitty leftist as well. He was also well educated and a physician. Not so different than Mangione, huh?

      Any group which still believes in “strong men” being saviors doesn’t actually believe in things like equality and equity.

        i dunno, he doesn’t seem as someone who was “against the system”. We are not flowing liquids that intermingle with each other, sometimes we have to use labels. anyways, either A) this twitter was a front and he was bullshitting or B)He may of “snapped” and changed his worldview on things.

          Purity tests like this is also what’s landed us in this divided position. He did something good even if he’s flawed, and that’s enough.

            I’m not saying that that we are divided, just that we don’t know the full picture of luigi yet. If some one stabbed you in the back, then helped you stab some one else in the back, would you trust that person not to stab you in the back again? its not division, its a simple level of trust that needs to be built

              Then we were talking about two different issues.

              With that said, I’d absolutely trust my life in the hands of Luigi over the hands of Brian Thompson.

                I wouldn’t trust either until i learn more about luigi, but yes if i was put in a room with a gun to my head it would be luigi.

        zeroth of all, they were figureheads in large organizations. luigi has none of that

        besides, there’s no improvement without criticism
