    "When one individual inflicts bodily injury upon another such that death results, we call the deed manslaughter; when the assailant knew in advance that the injury would be fatal, we call his deed murder. But when society places hundreds of proletarians in such a position that they inevitably meet a too early and an unnatural death, one which is quite as much a death by violence as that by the sword or bullet; when it deprives thousands of the necessaries of life, places them under conditions in which they cannot live - forces them, through the strong arm of the law, to remain in such conditions until that death ensues which is the inevitable consequence - knows that these thousands of victims must perish, and yet permits these conditions to remain, its deed is murder just as surely as the deed of the single individual; disguised, malicious murder, murder against which none can defend himself, which does not seem what it is, because no man sees the murderer, because the death of the victim seems a natural one, since the offence is more one of omission than of commission. But murder it remains."

    I think half of what made it so popular was the coincidence of a perfect framing that the security camera had. It was from over the shoulder of the killer. The scene dead center, like a planed shot in a movie. That made it personal. Like the viewer was the killer. Like how in video games the over the shoulder camera is a kind of intimacy with the player making character and player one. That made it cinematic. Easy to watch over and over again. Also: if it bleeds, it leads.
    Similarly, we don’t see any faces. This makes the death more distant and thus acceptable to see. The blur of the camera being grainy makes it also easier to distance from. And distance makes it easier to condone death.
    It was quick. Almost professional. And any kind of skill is praised now a-days. Pretty much always has been.
    And the cause is something most people understand, so even if you can’t condone the killing, you can understand the frustration behind it making Luigi a kind of anti hero; anti heroism had a popularity resurgence recently in movies, also meaning the pallet was wet before making it easier to accept.
    It really was a perfect storm to create such an event as this.

      It's because we don't teach History in our schools. We teach classes that ought to be called "Patriot brainwashing".

"Washington was one of the good slave owners because at death he freed his slaves even though they loved working him for him, so they were really sad when he died" "We beat the English fair and square, and just one Frenchman named Lafayette helped us, we didn't need French help and France's hate-boner to hurt England certainly didn't contribute to the economic hardships that led to the French people starving!" "Slaves were happy because they were housed and fed and their souls were saved because we have the Christianity and cake walks!" "The Civil War was was about states rights!" "Indians attacked homesteaders for no reason and scalped them, even when we offered them lands and food and medicine and Christian churches so they'd never have any of their basic needs unmet, they were just being violent because violence was central to their primitive way of life!" "We got civil rights because a plucky young girl named Rosa Parks decided to sit that the front of the bus and MLK made some nice speeches and there was a march and racism was cured!" "The KKK happened a long time ago, don't worry about it." "Women got the vote because the menfolk benevolently gave them the right when they saw that women were serious about wanting a say in government." "Women got equal pay because they made speeches and burned bras, and now a woman can do anything-- Just ignore the fact that the vast majority of women are service workers, cleaners, teaching, childcare, and low paying retail jobs because those are the jobs that are the most like women's natural strengths: Caring for children and running a family! But if you're not a normal woman you can be one of those outliers who take a job that doesn't suit your natural strengths!" "Reagan was the Great Communicator and America prospered under his expert leadership."
      If history makes you feel pride and reassurance that everything will eventually turn out all right because the people in charge know what they're doing and act benevolently if you're clever and polite when making requests? You're not studying history, you're being fed propaganda.

MLK never achieved civil rights within his lifetime when he was assassinated major cities rioted and there was the threat of major insurrection and that’s what got civil rights to pass. The square deal that got us the 8 hour work day, safety regulations, and union protections only got pushed through after weeks and weeks of protests that devolved into running gun battles with police when they were sent to break the strikes.

Putting himself in the position of the CEO as one of those people in charge of deciding who lives and who doesn't with impunity is a material impossibility for him, he can never do what Thompson did using a simple tool without paying the price, Thompson was a replaceable cog for the institutions he took part of, like any other person who takes part of them. One of these persons had a license to kill, the other not. There is nothing backing up Luigi, materially speaking.
    Only collective action could elicit real change. I'm not trying to deny the potential of individuals to act as triggers, but without a collective project behind them their acts only go so far.

      Generally speaking, you're right. But there is one benefit to this method. Every CEO in the world now is looking, and they are being reminded of their own mortality and the consequences of their actions. If enough perish, that might start to inform their decisions in the future. It won't make them better people, but it would lead to better outcomes. The biggest problem the US is facing today is the 1% believing themselves to be invincible, when in reality they are as replacable to us as we are to them. And that's a valuable reminder.

      We're exhausted too. We're so tired. But we can't afford to sleep, because the truly-wealthy [not just the slightly rich] own all the houses & as landlords they are actively colluding to raise our rent (proven). There are more empty houses than individuals who are unhoused (not just 1 per unhoused family; 1 per person. As in, for an unhoused family of 4, there currently exists an empty house for each one of those 4). We can't sleep on the streets, because it's illegal to be homeless (documented) & we'll be jailed, ruining any future housing chances (despite a few **months'** stint in jail costing more than simply paying to house struggling people for an entire **year** ) (both thoroughly documented & data easily demonstrated). We can't eat, because every food CEO - even our $!#-&ing potato CEOs - are colluding together to create faux monopolies that fall *just* shy of legal limits, in order to jointly raise prices (recently proven, though likely will go uncharged since Khan is going to be fired on January 20th when the new oligarchy assumes power).
      The Line Goes Up. It must always go up, because a steady line is considered a failing company.
      The wealth gap has passed the so-called "gilded age" (Rockefeller-era) numbers. With the incoming government & Ailes' state media, it's only going to get worse. We are at our limits. We are at our limits. The pressure cooker is screaming.

It is *possible* to be a millionaire but not a monster, he was a monster. There's a reason he was singled out, the decision maker. Not people just "doing their job" and pushing paperwork.

      the message that was propagated from the assassination was a call for change, to end the apathy and death brought by greed and selfishness- but what good is a message that's built on an action that acts as it's very antithesis? all human life inherently has value, but it can be disregarded in the right circumstances? the killing of another celebrated? I don't know how else the situation could've been helped unless luigi used his resources to found a fair healthcare company, but I believe defiling morals is a step in the wrong direction no matter the outcome

      ​@@mathsyasian The US healthcare system isn't capitalist. The reason why, is due to the fact that NO ONE is allowed to make their own medical industry, because the government gave protections like Patent laws to them to make it impossible to provide healthcare for cheaper prices. There is an easy way to stop medical monopolies and that is to focus on government policy and understanding why most laws and restrictions are bad for consumers. Luigi is a bad person, the CEO was a bad person, but murder is never EVER the answer for getting what you want. Violence is a tool that leads to tyranny and mindless bloodshed.

    I remember seeing a tweet by someone unironically called “end wokeness” talking about the trial.
    He had a picture of Luigi laughing while saying something among the lines of “this man killed a father who did nothing to him and said he doesn’t care, how disgusting”
    Look le violence is le bad okay. Killing isn’t good… I feel like everyone needs to make this clear when talking about this but how many fathers that did nothing to Brian did he kill and bankrupt and ruin the lives of? How many more would have had this happen if he lived long enough to pass this ridiculous AI policy?
    Brian was not an innocent man. Stop pretending that he was. He was a monster who yes was killed in cold blood but it wasn’t for no reason.

    I always look forward to your videos. I like the way you put politics into your videos, you often have a unique take on what's happening and bring it into art as well. It's really great.
    For the political event, I was so surprised how so many people accepted it as they did, and really embraced this as a good thing.
    I agree definitely that the event is a symbol to show people we do have power. It was a great reminder honestly. And awesome that people made memes and shared and everything else.

    Very interesting video… It’s a performance of art also… the light coming from what seems to be a balcony, dispersed into the room from the back, the cat walking around as if saying “I’m here”… the man sitting on the floor, humbly, using those autumnal colors… It seems that it was all made with a very fine artistic purpose. Thank you!

    As a person who doesn't own a car or a TV, I was impressed that the assassin escaped on a bicycle. Not owning a car is a gateway into anarchism because the privately owned automobile is corporate capitalism most important commodity and is a symbol of wage slavery and the meaninglessness of modern life. It is also the great taboo to speak truth about our deadly, diseased obsession with the automobile. Divorce your car and cancel your lifetime subscription to the gasoline pump.

      Although I see where you are coming from many people such as small farmers are very reliant on vehicles. I can see such obsession in countries so car-centric as the US but in Europe the car gives you a ridiculous amount of freedom and it's almost a necessity when living outside of a city. I don't think we should go back to carts and horses or just plain walking. Not owning a TV is great though. More time for reading and feeding the mind.

      ​@sp8ced3m0nbonapathy8 Staged or not, you have to admit that the public response goes against whatever intent the staging may have had. If this was an intentional hit put out by someone else, especially if it was by other high-up bourgeois, I highly doubt they *meant* for it to be made into a widespread call to class consciousness. Letting yourself lose all hope of this murder leading to meaningful change by dubbing it false even in the face of overwhelming evidence that the public is more than willing to tear the system down at this point by any means necessary is frighteningly passive of you. Being more willing to believe that nothing will change kills not just your own spirit, but the sprouting movement that begs you at the very least not to trample over it.

    So that shadow had me confused for a while. I wish it were more obviously a noose. At first I thought it was a parking meter or maybe a bad looking guitar... it didn't scream noose to me, and it should have.
    Otherwise it's a great and powerful piece.
