      Not everyone has little enough to lose to go vigilante. Many of us have families to feed and can’t afford to miss work over shooting a scumbag.

      Most people with a similar background to Luigi have too much to lose. He was educated, knew how to make a plan and follow through, learning what he didn’t know ahead of time. He knew how to navigate our systems in a way most people without that background won’t. And really, most people with those skills have too much to lose if they’re caught. The system protects itself by having us all be dependent on it.

      Honestly? I doubt at this point we’d be hearing about it.

      Didn’t the guy who was reported shooting up the NFL offices supposedly catch another CEO? I remember speculation that there was another company that shared an office with the NFL, and the CEO was the actual target; but at this point I can’t tell conspiracy theories from actual news being silenced.

        The CEO who was Luigi’d was probably unknown to the public and still it got a lot of coverage. If the CEO of a large corporation were unalived, we’d definitely hear about it. Republicans would immediately brand the person “extreme left” or “antifa”.

        But all the woke trans assassins committing the violence crimes. Need to deploy US military in the big democrat cities. (Whatever happened with that anyway? Did the cabal decide yeah that was too much of a bad idea, so let’s do Venezuela instead?)
