What are the opinions you’ve heard from people you’ve met in real life? I know the internet seems to have consensus, but the internet is not always representative of the real world.

What are the opinions of Luigi in your:

Family? Relatives? Friends? Coworkers/Classmates? People in your area?


I don’t really want to discuss this IRL since I’m a bit paranoid of mass surveillance and getting my voice recorded saying anything anti-establishment could put a target on my back, especially with the incoming US administration, so I’d rather not. (I know, I’m paranoid)

(Edit: Also, I don’t want a future employer somehow getting a recording of me glorifying a CEO’s death)

The only people IRL I’ve heard from are my parents who basically read propaganda from Wechat that just portrays Luigi as some crazy person, but, then again, my parents are also Pro-CCP idiots and hates Democrats for the “migrant crisis”, so that seems to be a trend for their beliefs: just parotting what Wechat says.

    So your parents if given the chance would not have killed Hitler?

    Ask your parents why they support Hitler next time.

      I did bring killing Hitler up, and they said that’s justified because things are different in times of war. Didn’t really feel like arguing with them any more than that lol.

      There should be some sort of justice system for deciding these matters.

      If we allow people to kill when they think it’s justified, we’re going to have pure chaos in our hands. If you want to watch the world burn, this is how you do it.

          People literally voted for the people who dismantled it. People voted for the same type of person to be president as the asshole that got murdered.

          Mob rule will only lead you in one direction; making the Redneckistan name more than just appropriate. But whatever. Fall into chaos and end up like the middle East. I don’t care anymore. Let the world burn. Better fast than the slow climate cooking that you morons in the US doomed the world into.

        Well as long as these people exist, we cannot have a just system for deciding these matters as they wield too much influence and power.

          The US literally voted those type of people in, including in the role of the president - again. They want this system, and they got it. What you are asking for is mob rule like in the middle east.

                Jfc yourself.

                Who the fuck is stupid enough to believe this issue only started 8 years ago? The US was founded for the wealthy and the legal system has reflected that since day one.

                  No one said that, I in fact even specifically mentioned that it isn’t just about the president. Redneckistans have a tradition to vote for the wrong people for a long time. What you’re doing though is equating both sides to be same, which is just Russian propaganda bullshit aimed to destabilize the country (or rather countries, since they push this narrative everywhere). Whatever. Put your money where your mouth is and go and murder some guy you don’t like with your mob mentality in your own country instead of being a Russian tool by instigating others.

              Many African countries are already implementing this system, and with great success, you could argue. Well… as far as the amount is bloodshed and bodycount are concerned. I mean, if someone thought of killing another person, it must have been for a valid reason, right? Obviously, the evil ones are the first to go in a situation like that.
