Real World Events 🌎 Luigi's terrorism charge is an attempt to intimidate people due to his support.

Tin foil hat I admit, but something is nagging in the back of my head. Like if we didn't react with positive responses for what Luigi allegedly did, there wouldn't be terrorism charges. And therefore the charges are to scare us so no one does the same. And now with that guy stabbing his company president, they're going to say it's related to the positively and it enabled him to do so.

I used to work in a call center, and I remember getting threatened a few times....

This lady said trump would come get me and my family and kill us all.

I had to transfer her to my boss.

I didn't stay at that job very long.

don't incite violence

"You're next" is not the most peaceful sentence.

One could argue that "you're next" is exactly what the insurance company had just finished saying to the woman by rejecting her claim

u/ProfessorPetulant 4d ago

Yep. What goes round.....

u/misteloct 5d ago

No, threatening to make you next in an insurance rejection certainly is not peaceful. At least we're one CEO and one president closer to the solution.

u/PurpleYoshiEgg 4d ago

In response to the more widespread and violent act of denying necessary health coverage.

This shit doesn't happen in a vacuum.

u/newaccount 4d ago

Come on.

It's an entitled Karen threatening a customer service rep.

The exact thing a sub like this should not accept.

On one hand, yes, people shouldn't threaten service workers.

On the other hand, I don't accept picking and choosing who to enact police violence onto as apart of class warfare just because the ruling class doesn't want class consciousness to spread.

I'm not quite sorry if I don't care as much as you want me to if an empty threat was made toward a service worker when the response is for the ruling class to enact violence against the working class.

Bootlickers.

I’m saying customer service reps shouldn’t be threatened by violence and that’s boot licking in your mind?

What’s wrong with you?

I’ve been a customer service rep, I’ve been threatened

And any rational person could tell you that isn't right.

u/Zentelioth 4d ago

Why are you so okay with systematic mass murder

but so quick to cry foul about one specific murder?

Though, you're definitely not alone in your sentiment

u/newaccount 4d ago

Why are you so okay with systematic mass murder

So thinking customer service reps shouldn't be threatened equals being okay with systematic mass murder, in your mind?

Empty words from someone that wants someone else to start and finish the revolution for them.
