Luigi Mangione's shackled ankles in court - Mander

Lemmy

Wow, they are really afraid of this guy.

Agnifilo argues against this decision. He is a model prisoner

The way the clothes they wear are flying off the shelves, and Luigi’s outstanding photogenic quality, you bet they’re a model prisoner.

did luigi come out as NB and i missed it? or why are you misgendering him?
In English “they” is neutral. It’s also both singular and plural.
neutral gender is appropriate when the gender is unknown or for NB people. otherwise it is appropriate to use the known gender
It’s also prefecture appropriate to say they. It’s not gendered
Thanks. I couldn’t figure out how to say that without sounding like an asshole

I don’t know Luigi’s gender for certain, nor is it relevant to my statement. Neutrality is appropriate.

Furthermore, I personally disapprove of gendered language in general. It’s pointless. I can’t think of one reason to keep that archaic tradition.

Wtf are you talking about

All just ammo for the appeal.

The shooter calmly walked away, and Luigi was arrested calmly in a McDonald’s.

At no stage was there some crazy escape or shootout where something like this would be warranted in court, and things like this have been argued to have influenced potential jury members in past cases.

Like, it’s one straw on a giant pile of better examples so far, but it all adds up. They’re gonna OJ this shit and go so hard it ends in a mistrial or something crazy.

Especially since the trial is going to be a media circus and Trump won’t be able to keep his nose out of it, it’ll kill him that he won’t be the main attraction.

There’s not going to be a mistrial. This is going to be the most cooked trial you’ve ever seen in your life. Every single juror is going to vote guilty no matter what happens. Through the bribery or threats it will happen. You can book it.
It’s improbable that there won’t be jury tampering, but the public support for this fella is pretty hard to deny.

He’s a patriot, what higher truth can you speak to power than the great equalizer, a cheaply produced firearm?

He’s a hero, they’ll make a martyr of him, we’ll make sure his name is remembered and other disaffected, isolated men at the end of their chains can have a new target. Instead of school children it can be someone more appropriate. What good is having power and privilege if you have to look over your shoulder while you’re at the lake? What good is a yearly bonus if you have to pay it all to private security to protect your families lives?

We have far less to lose than they do, I can (hypothetically) only die once but with a little luck I can extract a very high price from a rent-seeking leech before I do.

Rent-seeking - Wikipedia

TBF he was arrested calmly in a McDonalds in the next state over with a bag filled with $20,000 cash. Idk if that on its own warrants treating him as such a flight risk to warrant handcuffs, or maybe if this is just federal custody protocol, but either way I get it.

What’s the source for the obviously biased article about the twisted women? Takes me back to when they called protesters “thugs” during the Floyd protests.
NY Post article

Oh, that 100% tracks from that rag. By comparison, a similar article from NPR was a lot more careful about it, e.g. “Mangione has received widespread public support, despite state and federal officials discouraging it.” Good lesson in identifying bias.

NPR even had the message Luigi sent out thanking his supporters, which I think is nice.

Dunno if it’s AI generated but the choice of expression sounds like how a lot of porn videos are titled, e.g. “Dangerous intimacy for this peculiar tart”, the kinds of laughable titles a human wouldn’t naturally come up with!
The way they’ve handled him you’d think they were hauling the Joker in and out of court or something.
I don’t think so. It’s all a show, for us to be afraid of our consequences, rather than reflecting on institutions and systems, and the consequences of those collective actions.

So our options are becoming:

Toil for 70 years until you’re forced to liquidate everything you have to move into a shitty retirement home or become a burden on any children you may’ve had.

Drop out of society and refuse to cooperate, facing all the consequences that entails.

Complete a single task that promises 3 meals per day, climate controlled shelter, basic healthcare and the adoration of fans across the country?

Seems like they’re making the choice easy for a lot of people.

We have choices, and they are hard choices. Idk unless the Republicans are right m.youtube.com/watch?v=cV1USdkPQ5w

Im getting eldorado vibes

What are they worried about, there a lot of CEOs in the courtroom?
He made it pretty far on foot after the murder, so there is that.
MFer making loafers look fly as hell
I didn’t know how, but he’s managed to make even this look classy
Those shoes are probably sold out now.
No socks though! My feet are feeling cold just looking at them!
I’m guessing they swap out his prison issued shoes before court. And probably socks are difficult with the shackles.
My dad (who is wearing near identical shoes as I write this) will tell you that you don’t wear socks with these. I wouldn’t call him an authority on style though.
Sounds like you have poor circulation. Should consider more cardio
I walk around barefoot pretty much all summer. Just that it’s been -10 here since December.
Yeah, it’s February (and cold in NY), where are the socks?!
Socks are just sweaty feet prisons unless you’re wearing boots or something similar. I wear them like 5 times a year
Unless you go barefoot I’m afraid that puts you directly into the 1/2 CR monster category in my books.
I’m more concerned about how the shoes will rub against the skin, makes me shiver.
That may be intentional. Try to run away and get severe blisters!
Don’t threaten me with a good time
Woah this is too spicy
Free feet on main!? That’s no way to keep your adoring fans thirsty. ;)
Dude just cannot take a bad picture.
Bruno Magli? Bold choice, let’s see how it works out. :)
Probably will result in some power tripping anti Luigi feet mod taking out his unpopular opinion by banning anyone who disagrees. Fuck that hypothetical guy am I right.
No NSFW tag?
Right?! Added to my spank bank.
These are for free. ;)

Them treads are fresh.
Look, I’m down with his attitude to CEOs, but I just can’t get on board with the “everyone must see my ankles” club. I’m out.
I too am tired of thirst traps, no matter how sexy they are
damn his sexy ankles, making me…feel things
I don’t have much love for this cat, but they are treating him like he’s this deranged, blood thirsty serial killer who eats people. He murdered someone. Happens every day. The elites are really trying to send a message.
