No one in their sane mind likes killing, but people have become 'fans' of #LuigiMangione because he symbolises anger towards shitty systems (not just in the U.S. but everywhere).

People are AN-GRY with healthcare systems (attempts at privatising the NHS 🇬🇧 , the corporate greed of insurance companies 🇺🇲 ), with politicians (néolibs, 'centre-'-left aka centre-right, millionaire MPs and Congress/Senate, far right politicians), corporate greed, war, energy bills, cost of living, shit pay, housing crisis, #AI, #governmentsurveillance, police violence (#ACAB), repression of protest, repression of #LGBTQISplusRights :anqueer_flag: :newpride: ...the list is long.

Although it's completely sane to not cry over a billionaire who gleefully made money from the deaths of patients who made him rich by paying for their insurance, only to have the insurance company say 'You're dying. Who cares! Fuck you'

Double plus ungood!

Elon Musk Fought #GovernmentSurveillance — While Profiting Off Government Surveillance

Musk made hay of his legal battle against secret surveillance but continued selling X user data to a company that facilitates government monitoring.

"While national security letters allow the government to make targeted demands for non-public data on an individual basis, companies like #Dataminr continuously monitor public activity on social media and other internet platforms. Dataminr provides its customers with customized real-time 'alerts' on desired topics, giving clients like police departments a form of social media omniscience. The alerts allow police to, for instance, automatically track a #protest as it moves from its planning stages into the streets, without requiring police officials to do any time-intensive searches."
