These are the same picture
Superman wouldn’t never kill a CEO. Luigi wins
They should be. That’s the point. They’ve ignored us for decades because the propaganda worked.
“Violence is never the answer”
Well historically, that’s a blatant lie. And Luigi woke us all up to that fact. People can argue that the 3.5% rule here applies. But if it does its closer to 35%.
Spades are broke. Die is cast. Can’t put the Genie back in the bottle. Can’t put the cat back in the bag. “Terrorism” charges don’t scare us. Their finger wagging doesn’t move us. We can see the truth now. And there is absolutely nothing they can do about it.
Boardrooms, not classrooms
I like this slogan. If someone is intent on going out shooting people then let’s direct their anger to the benefit of us all. I fear though that the pathetic cowards who do school shootings do it because it’s easy and kids can’t fight back.
I fear though that the pathetic cowards
Yeah school shooters hate society but are unable to ID who made life shit for plebs.
Columbine send them down the wrong rabbit whole and I have a feeling media played a critical role in that, maybe intentionally?
They are doing the same thing here which I would think they would know better but it looks like they lost touch with reality. Huffing their own farts too much.
The CEO didn’t fight back either.
True, but all the planning the assassin had to do is several orders of magnitude harder than picking up your discount AR15 and heading to a local school.
Higher effort, higher reward
And more glory, hell if they kill a big enough fish they may get a folk song or two.

I’m pretty sure most school shooters attend the school they’re shooting up. Kind of an apples to oranges thing here. Unless … Can we get disgruntled board members onboard?
Jk their lives are too posh for that.
Yeah they’re often the weird kids that don’t socialize much so they rationalize it by thinking that everyone else is the problem.
Not hard to want to go postal when you legitimately think everyone’s out to get you.
All I can think of is the original Sam Raimi spider man and how Norman Osbourne murdered ths fucking board.
You know I’m sort of a proletariat myself.
Realistically, the death of Brian won’t move money or power in any meaningful way. CEOs are replaceable like all workers.
What it hopefully will do is make people aware of the class war that the rich has been conducting for years. Ideally, no more people will have to die to make the working class understand their position, but I’m not entirely sure.
I disagree that it won’t change those things. This CEO is just one of many, but this event alone has resulted in reaction from heaps of different companies. They see the anger, and they don’t want to be targeted themselves. People will do many different things to avoid being a target. Many of those things are not at all helpful to society, but some of them are… eg. ‘try to be less bad’.
I’m not saying that it’s a huge shift that will solve all of our problems. But I do think it does make a difference.
True, I just feel like any of these changes to policies will disappear within a year or two. And while I wouldn’t be against an annual billionaire sacrifice, I think that it just risks even more funding towards police.
Luigi is much stronger than superman
Well of course.
Because one is a human, the other is a fictional character.
Luigi can go around burning every single Superman comic and Superman can’t do anything about it.
Superman has essentially nothing to lose. He can’t be harmed directly. Luigi made a significant personal sacrifice to send a message - allegedly
Cops seem like weak pussies.
This is unfair to all the powerful pussies out there. Arguably one of the strongest parts of the human body.
Also seems unfair to small cats. I’ve seen a 1.5 pound cat absolutely tear the shit out of a couple of ≈70 pound rottweilers. She then climbed back out of their yard, and sauntered off. Those dogs never so much as growled at her again.
I’m a 200lb ape capable of using rudimentary tools and would run away from an angry cat, fuck that.
Anyone notice certain YouTube artist’s songs/music videos that state things that may be seen as unsympathetic or critical to the richie riches out there are having their comments disabled or downright removed? I’m talking 5+ year old songs or albums. Someone I subscribe to and enjoy their music and has never disabled their comments suddenly has them disabled.
I’ve noticed a lot of very old Paris videos were removed this year. Not sure why. Google/YouTube seems to be heavily demoting them as well, because some songs don’t show up in video search results at all, and you can only find them if you search for the album.
That’s hilarious. lol
Black noir is in gunns superman?
I didn’t watch that movie, but I think that’s Black Bolt.
Black bolt is marvel, not DC
Oh, dang. You’re right. I don’t have any idea who it is then! I am not super familiar with DC, clearly.
Now add the tienamen square tanks to the pic.

If they weren’t, why would they be doing the things they are doing then?
deleted by creator
No it’s not. There are so many comparable pictures out there today. You can just look at them next to each other.

Does that guarantee why companies have tried removing their about us page that show their employees and their position in the company, or why they are hiring security, or starting phone lines so they have outlets if they need someone to talk to?
Shit even Amazon is hiring an “executive protection manager” right now so they can set up a security team.

I dunno, I lock my doors cuz I’m afraid of someone coming into my house and harming me or my family, or stealing my stuff. That’s why I lock it.
They escalate, so do their innumerable victims.
Part of the owner’s con was murdering with a quiet smile. That no longer works being surrounded by corpo stormtroopers as they’re hiring frantically out of “precaution.” Nice deflection, feels like something corpo PR would release.
Enjoy agreeing with Donald Trump btw.

I’m not sure what you think I think it is… but I think it’s just a lad that said fuck you to some mate that fucked over a lot of people. If that’s terrorism than every murder is terrorism, because you lock your doors at night because you’re aware of what could happen, not afraid.
Where is not?
Edit: downvoted me and changed there to they’re… drats. Could have at least said thank you for pointing it out for you.
Superman wouldn’t do what that murderer did.
Superman snapped that guy’s neck before he could kill more people.
Luigi did his thing before the moron could deny more life saving treatments.
Hate only ever leads to more hate, it’s a game played best by children, and full grown adults that don’t know any better.
Snapped who’s neck? A Supervillians? Because that’s not what I’m referring to. No, CEO’s aren’t Supervillans, they don’t have any Superpowers.
Superman’s main antagonist supervillain is literally a billionaire CEO.
Lmao, it’s so hard to argue that point I have to admit.
Ultimately I think there would be Superhero ways to contain SuperVillians. You honestly think Lex would be able to get out again and again from something like that? Can’t help but to think something like that would be the way to go.
Hate doesn’t know any better, love does.
CEOs kill people.
Not with Superpowers, on a SuperVillian level.
The mechanism is irrelevant. Murder is still murder even if through insurance denials, pollution, or any other bullshit legal ways of killing people.
Of course it’s relevant. You’re talking about civilians that make up the real world. I’m talking about people with Super powers that don’t even exist.
Yeah, the CEO really shouldn’t have hated poor people as much as he did. Could have avoided all of this.
The punisher wouldnt do what any of those bootlickers do, but his logo is still on the back of half the police cruisers.
Guess we’re even
Imperiex wanted to make the universe how he wanted, causing the deaths of many people and superheros, Superman said fuck that noise and killed them by pushing them into the hypothetical time before the big bang.
So I mean, Superman has already been written to do such.
But if you mean Superman who doesn’t exist wouldn’t kill a person that did exist, yeah that’s believed to be impossible by most.
Yeah but that’s a supervillian, not yet another CEO admist the sea of all the others. Superheroes don’t want to have to kill at all but against evil of that magnitude, they feel as though they must because to not would mean the lives of countless others, so they make that age old ethical choice of killing one to save the lives of potentially even millions.
So you believe he’s a hero then and not a superhero because he didn’t have to overcome super human odds, that makes sense.
Let me break some ice if you aren’t understanding that, CEOs in large corporations ARE supervillains. It isn’t a toss up, it’s an explanation point. They steal from the poor and give to the rich.
I’m not saying I agree with the ethical choice this hypothetical superhero in question made.
No they’re not. They have no super powers, they’re only human. One of which you would be yourself if you shared the same circumstances.
Supervillians are one in a million (friendly reminder that they dont even exist). There’s seemingly an infinite amount of people that would replace every last CEO we kill. And behind every dead body, is a family, friends and who knows who else that would only be given the incentive for revenge; The “vicious cycle” of an eye for an eye.
If you have met a person, you have met a hero. Maybe not to you, but they are a hero to someone. Super is a fictional term. We are but human. We shouldn’t compare humans to superhuman because well … we put a fucking adjective that says they are better than us in the name
I didn’t even imply that people aren’t heroes. I said: they’re superheroes because they have super powers; humans don’t have super powers. Humans aren’t superheroes
I think the closest we get from a real world’s point of view—in contrast to anything thats ever existed, would be our capacity for selflessness, not only individually, but especially collectively.
I think a response got sent to the wrong person (likely my fault) that said. If you think a hero is forced to do the untinksble as you said… Then how does that not describe doofus who did this?
Allow thousands to suffer and die for profit? No, he wouldn’t.
Superheroes aren’t murderers.
Superman killed at least 19 characters in the comics.
Supervillians, not some CEO. No CEO’s aren’t supervillains, they don’t have superpowers.
CEOs are the closest thing we have to supervillains.
That and politicians like putin.
Still not Supervillians.
That’s a supervillan. CEO’s don’t have superpowers.
Killing thousands of people by signing a paper seems like a superpower to me.
Farthest thing from a Superpower.
Murder is murder.
My oginal point still stands: superman wouldn’t murder some CEO, a supervillian on the other hand? That’s an entirely different story.

Explain to me how Superman couldn’t have stopped him without deadly force? He easily could’ve, doesn’t make any sense. This context is also absent of the knowledge of the value of the extremes of the selflessness being common knowledge.
He could have, but that wouldn’t have helped. It is like Lex says, sooner or later he would get out and do it all over again.
The context is the series.
We don’t live in a world where people are freeing themselves from prison on the regular just to “do it all over again.”
Keep in mind we’re talking about a cartoon about Superheroes.
Superman is lawful stupid and ignores lived reality ¯\(ツ)/¯
Lawful Good versus Chaotic Good.
