I upvoted, but these kinds of posts make me uncomfortable. Luigi was a wealthy crypto bro working though a mental crisis. Luigi is not lefty batman.
I am very happy about the discussions his actions are creating and the overreaction from the upper class, but I am not sure it is a good idea to glorify Luigi.
There will never be the perfect Robin Hood. Engels was wealthy, Bernie is a millionaire.
Really the point is that Luigi is (allegedly) right, and represents a justifiable sentiment of disdain for the system and class solidarity.

That sounds a lot like Batman.
Lefty Batman is inherently contradictory too. Because a real leftist Batman would use his money to fix the systemic problems of Gotham, and are you still really Batman if you're not out beating the shit out of poor mentally ill people?
Or you could make the argument that Batman solves his problems with violence, in which case Luigi is fucking literally Lefty Batman for targeting a person far closer to the problem than Batman ever normally would.
Explain how Batman was not a wealthy crypto bro working though a mental crisis ?
Good point ☝️
Also batman didn't change the systemic issues with Gotham.

This is exactly what I have been saying since the assassination. You cannot fix systemic problems with vigilantism.
Did anyone's coverage go down? No. Did UHC just deny the claim of a woman in a coma? Yes.
You cannot fix systemic problems with vigilantism.
Well you can't fix it from within the system. You can't fix it with vigilantism, but it can be fixed as every other country in earth has fixed this problem.
The fuck do you people want then?
There was time to fix it from within the system. That was before the fascist dictator was elected. There is no fix at this point. The good news is it will almost certainly come all crashing down due to incompetence and you only have a few years before global warming because a much bigger problem than healthcare anyway.
What do I want? A socialist utopia. I'm just not under any illusions about it happening in America.
No, there demonstrably wasn't. This happened under Biden.
Sorry, do you think time began in 2020?
You apparently do. Trump has nothing, whatsoever, to do with the state of healthcare, and won't. The ACA was a Republican think tank health plan, and is directly responsible for the state we're in. Healthcare reform hasn't been on the table in a serious manner in this country, from any party.
Trump has everything to do with the fact that there is not going to be any chance to do any sort of progressive reforms in America again in the foreseeable future. Just like there are not going to be any elections again in the foreseeable future.
You still think things are fixable in the U.S.
You are in for a rude awakening.
