I agree, but somewhere along the line a bunch of people got confused and now literally think there’s a real conspiracy to frame Luigi who is literally an innocent man
He’s not innocent. He shot that man
We’re all just glad he shot that man and we wish he would have shot a few more
You’re exactly the type of person I’m talking about
It was never a debate if he actually did it. We know he did it. We know why he did it. He’s admitting to doing it. He literally sent emails pretending to be an investor to find out when the CEO would be at the conference. We all know he did it, we all just pretend like he’s innocent because we support him. Only fools literally think he’s innocent
Is it not murder to knowingly turn down life saving medical procedures people paid for because doing so makes you rich?
CEOs should be fucking scared people will murder them in the street… then maybe they’ll make good decisions again
I support Luigi
But also, Luigi did it
I know that. I’ve always known that. He’s never really denied it. He just admitted it himself
We all joke around that he’s innocent and that he was with us at church or whatever… that the real shooter is a woman or whatever… but these are jokes. we don’t actually think he’s innocent, we’re just pretending like he’s innocent to show support
There seems to be a crazy amount of people who don’t understand that though and might actually think that Luigi literally was with me at church that day and that I did actually see a 9 foot Amazonian woman pull the trigger.
There seems to be a crazy amount of people who think Luigi is being framed because they apparently believed the comments they read on the internet not understanding that we’re all joking out of support
It’s not trolling if the internet is full of morons
What? Luigi literally just said he did it.
He told a judge that he followed Thompson to a UnitedHealth Group investor conference and shot him on the morning of Dec 4 2024. He also explained that leading up to the murder he emailed UnitedHealthcare while pretending to be an investor at a firm managing more than $50 million in assets so he could get information about the conference. He also acknowledged building a 3D-printed gun with a silencer and that this was the weapon he used for the shooting.
And I quote
“On the morning of Dec 4 2024 I shot Mr. Thompson in Manhattan and he died”
This isn’t new information to anyone who actually knows about the case… we all know he did it, we’re all just pretending like he’s innocent because we support him
yet these comments read like people don’t understand that we’re joking when we say he’s innocent.
That’s concerning that you guys are so thick you literally don’t recognize jokes when you see them anymore.
There’s nothing to argue about it. He did it. He admitted it. He’s pleading guilty.
Anyone in the comments who literally thinks he’s innocent is a fucking moron
Because it’s ignorance
I’m worried a large portion of the users on this site are either too dumb to understand we’re joking or just that uninformed about ‘current’ events
It’s kind of scary to think a large group of lemmy users saw me say, “Luigi was with me feeding homeless people at my church” and they were like, “omg, he was?”. Like some shit straight out of idiocracy
No, he was not literally with me. It’s a fucking joke
I did not witness the shooting. Despite what I said on the internet I did not see a 9 foot amazonian woman shoot that man. It’s a bit upsetting to think I’m surrounded by users who believed me
I think most of us support what he did
Which is why there’s the viral meme of sorts where we all pretend like he doesn’t fit the description of the person we saw do it or whatever… but that’s literally just people talking shit because they support him, not because they literally saw a 9 foot tall white woman shoot the CEO
Despite what I might have said in the past, no, Luigi was not literally with me that day feeding homeless people at a church.
I’m concerned at the number of comments that read like they don’t understand that we were memeing his innocence, not that he’s actually innocent
Fair. I mean, he is pleading guilty but still, fair point
My bigger point is that I’m concerned that people on this site are talking like they literally believe he’s an innocent man being framed by the government because they didn’t understand all the people on the internet who claimed he doesn’t fit the description of the person they saw do it or whatever are just people joking around because they support his actions
Despite what I might have said in the past, I did no literally witness the crime and no I did not literally see a 9 foot tall bald white man do it
Despite what you might have read people say on the internet, Luigi was not feeding homeless people at churches all across the nation that afternoon
He probably did it. We all know it. He’s pleading guilty. We just love him for what he did
Sure, but also, he killed that man
These comments lead me to believe that a large portion of this site literally thinks that he’s literally an innocent man being framed by the government instead of everyone just pretending like he’s innocent because we support his actions
Memes aside, you guys know he actually did this right?
You know the, “he didn’t do it” thing is a meme. As in, “oh no, he was totally with me that day. We were feeding homeless people at my local church”
It’s a meme because we support what he did
But in reality, he’s guilty as fuck. He totally did it
That’s why I think they’re all 15. They literally have zero idea of what AI is actually doing in the world and when I tried to explain it to them they told me I was lying
I have a kid so I’ve seen the Shorts on YouTube and a lot of them are “AI Slop”. It’s bad… like, real bad. If this is all I knew of AI, I’d think anyone who sees it as a useful tool is an idiot too
The biggest offenders are the videos that start with a wild concept. Like, “this woman dyed her hair using 13 gallons of pink hair dye! You’ll never believe how it turned out!”
But then the video is interrupted by AI Jesus or AI cats or something and the cats or Jesus beg you to like the video but also also if you love your mom you should subscribe and also if you love Jesus and your Mom (or you don’t want this cat to starve to death in the street and you love your mom), leave a comment telling Jesus or the Cat that you love them so they’ll know you care
And then it finally goes back to the woman who dyed or hair or whatever, but it’s barely a second long, and it’s just like, “her hair was pink” and the video ends.
So 99% of the video is badly animated AI Jesus with a bad AI voice begging you to like the video or else you’ll go to hell and the remaining 1% is, “this woman dyed her hair with 13 gallons of pink hair dye. You’ll never believe how it turned out! Her hair was pink”.
The ones I really hate though is when somebody takes an existing short (maybe of somebody cleaning a dirty rug) and they have AI write a song about it and they play the AI song on top of a video someone else made
The songs are always awful and they always end the same way, “but they were sad because they didn’t get any likes”
It’s bad… and it use to not be this way. Shorts use to be quick game tips or quick montage footage of what to expect on the full channel. But after AI blew up it’s almost all this AI slop with shitty AI Jesus or whatever.
And so if I were a tween who spent my lunch break watching TikTock and this is what I saw, this is what I knew of AI, of course I’d hate it. How could anyone defend that trash? That’s what we’re sucking up all the water for? But they also think it’s a trend. That eventually these videos will stop getting likes and when that happens people will stop making them and AI will go away
It won’t though, AI is here to stay
Maybe, maybe not. Doesn’t matter, it is currently free and people prefer it over your nerdy cousin because of that
There’s the argument that despite what your nerdy cousin says, he doesn’t actually like making art, he just think that if he can be an artist he won’t have to have a real job. He doesn’t want to draw a picture for you, otherwise he would have done it for free simply because it was fun
I should also be able to walk through the worst parts of Compton as an out-of-town white man by myself with a 10k necklace on and not be worried I’ll get robbed and shot
But also I need to take responsibility for my own actions and not make bad choices
Is it victim blaming to call me stupid when I get robbed? Probably
Was it stupid of me to walk through the worst parts of Compton by myself as an out-of-town white man with a 10k necklace on? Also yes
You can wish in one hand for a perfect world where you can work an easy job taking orders at McDonalds and make enough money to buy a 5 bedroom house in a good neighborhood with a decent yard and have enough left over to raise 3 kids and take a vacation ever year while treating yourself to daily high-quality coffee and fancy snacks…
or
You can climb down from the fantasy world in the sky and join the rest of us here in reality and realize that if you want to move out of your moms house you’re going to need money and the only way to have lots of money is to figure out how to save as much money as you can
it doesn’t matter if you like it; that’s how it is
I think most of them are 15 year old kids whos experience with AI is what they see on TikTock
Bad AI videos, bad AI voices, bad AI art and music; that eventually these types of videos will stop getting views and the whole AI think will die
What they don’t know or understand is that this is the side effect of AI, not the driving force or even it’s primary use
In reality AI has infiltrated most businesses and is very quickly, if not already, an integral part of daily business routines
I got banned from a sub for being a shill because the mods did not believe me when I told them we use AI to transcribe our morning meetings, make tasks on our kanban board, review code, run tests, and manager our build pipelines
I was told, “AI can’t do any of that” – huh?
You don’t know what you don’t know
Get out there, do something new, see what you learn
Really long term, Earth is doomed. Not Climate Change, the sun will literally die one day. If humanity is to survive, we need to leave Earth and eventually our solar system
Waiting until the sun is expanding to start working on this problem is a lot like the issues we have with climate change. “Not my problem” type of attitude.
In your defense, the time length between climate change and the death of the sun is beyond massive, but still, it’s the same kind of thinking. You don’t need to leave Earth today and while people in the future probably will for any number of reasons, so what, let them figure it out, right?
We’re humans, this is what we do… we explore. Lets go
Lets say music literally kills the art of playing music instruments. It won’t, but lets pretend it does
So?
Really think about that. Music isn’t gone, people just don’t play instruments to make it anymore
OK, and?
my experience is that lemmy users are actually worse than reddit users, but there are less people here so you don’t have to put up with as much stupid shit
I think the average reddit users is like 30, where the average lemmy user seems to be 15
That being said, I can stand to come here once every couple of days and browse for 15 minute
I rarely see anybody say anything of any intelligence while I’m here as it’s just more of the same doomer bullshit I’d find everywhere else, but it’s like 6 people saying it here instead of 1,000 saying it there
another one
He did it. He never even attempted to deny he did it. He literally sent emails to track where the CEO would be. There are zero other suspects.
He did it. We all know he did it. We just pretended like he was an innocent man being framed because we support what he did; you weren’t suppose to take us seriously
