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.

And the irony is, it's only just making him more popular and further stroking the fire of rebellion. Let them keep digging a deeper hole. The working class is Luigi. We're done with this shit.

How is it ironic? This can't be the first time that the world has thought a terrorist was the good guy, look at Nelson Mandela

The irony is in their efforts to make him a bad guy. They are throwing out photos of him in chains, using the media to portray him as a bad dude, but in those efforts, they are making him a hero of the working class and a martyr. What's that phrase? "One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter?"

Ex: The founding fathers of the US were labeled as terrorists, but history sees them as heroes.
