Gonna wanna see the source code on that "Pray" button. I don't think it actually does anything.

I don't want to dampen the good mood, but even if this is sent anonymously, is there any risk of the information of who is the donor being hacked, especially by corporate overlords who have every incentive to see Luigi and his supporters get punished?

How a 30k donation to a murderer counts as "uplifting news"? If anything it's depressing

[–] spankmonkey@lemmy.world 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

The donation doesn't go to a CEO who has murdered hundreds, possibly thousands of people.

It is going to someone who acted in defense of others. Or who might not be the person who even did that, which is why he deserves a fair trial.

Funny, if that hypothetical murderer really died wouldn't that mean the "killings" would have stopped? Looks like nothing has changed.

[–] CileTheSane@lemmy.ca 0 points 4 months ago

So if someone else goes out and shoots the new CEO that would make arresting Luigi pointless? "Looks like nothing changed, another CEO got shot anyway.'

[–] finitebanjo@lemmy.world -1 points 4 months ago (9 children)

Yeah TBH I dislike Luigi a little bit more every time I see his face.

People are actually worshiping this guy for some reason.

You're asleep at the wheel.

[–] twinnie@feddit.uk -1 points 4 months ago (10 children)

I agree. I don’t think this sub should get political.

[–] blakenong@lemmings.world 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

It’s uplifting news and has nothing to do with politics. Perhaps Reddit is a better place for you

[–] finitebanjo@lemmy.world -2 points 4 months ago (5 children)

I agree it isn't political but it's definitely not uplifting, unless you're some kind of murder cultist.

you don't have to be into the whole killing part. me too. what's up?

[–] sunglocto@lemmy.dbzer0.com -1 points 4 months ago (4 children)

I just think that sending your own hard owned money to a murderer is pathetic, and everyone else upvoting this and encouraging this disgusting behaviour are also pathetic. This complete loss of all morals and integrity just because a victim was in a situation you politivally disagree with is completely embarassing.

[–] Zier@fedia.io 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

But making donations to a convicted felon who claims to be super rich and is nothing more than a con man and sexual abuser is ok? I choosing to stand with Luigi.
