Luigi wasn’t lower class, tho? You could try to argue his family was middle class but even that’s a stretch, his grandfather donated a million dollars on a single event and Luigi attended both a Private High School where he was Valedictorian and he had a Masters Degree from Ivy League University of Pennsylvania.
You can be rich and still fight against an oligarchy. That’s why it’s class warfare. His actions line up with the poor fighting back against the rich using the same tools they use: murder.
Have you ever heard of class solidarity? It’s not us = poor vs them = rich, it’s us = people who have to work vs them = people make money off us working. The fact that this “upper class” dude had to suffer at the hands of the healthcare system should have tipped you off that he’s one of us - the bourgeois don’t have to worry about healthcare.
So you really think the ruling class have to struggle with healthcare?! The fact that he took such drastic measures because of having the same damn fight with the insurance companies that you and I have to do is proof. And if that shit about his mom is true, then clearly they are not bourgeoisie.
Probably because that was before he was 26 and kicked off his parents insurance plan. You’re doing as much speculation as me, we don’t know, so why are you so adamant?
There’s no higher, middle or lower class. Those are all lies from the owning class to divide the working class and it seems like they’re working on you.
Thompson’s net worth was estimated at approximately $42.9 million as of February 16, 2024
His total compensation in 2022 was reported to be $9.86 million, comprising a base salary of $1 million, stock awards, option awards, and non-equity incentive plans.
Thompson had “fuck you” money. The guy was at no risk of needing employment. Equating Thompson with the working class is a joke.
Pretty certain he had all his debts paid off, or at the very least more than enough money and power to do so.
His parents own tons of real estate and his grandfather was even more loaded. In fact, I bet two semesters of his high school surpassed the cost of all of his out of pocket spinal surgery and care combined.
I guess people from lower class can’t stand for themselves as they are busy surviving. Revolutionnary figures were often from middle class (Lenine, Che…)

Do you have to be a slave to fight against slavery?
To be a Lower Class Hero and Icon you have to be Lower Class, yes.
Nobody called John Brown the Slave Hero or the living symbol of a Slave fighting oppression.
People’s perception of Luigi is fantasy fiction.

You can praise Luigi for betraying his class but I don’t see any reason to replace the truth with fanfiction.

No I don’t think Luigi had any problem at all getting his spinal surgeries funded.
Probably because that was before he was 26 and kicked off his parents insurance plan. You’re doing as much speculation as me, we don’t know, so why are you so adamant?
Even without insurance he could get it all covered.

His family owns a lot of real estate.
He’s a class traitor, to our side. So a working class hero, as in a hero to the working class.
Worker class is the true unifier. You can be lower, mid, and upper worker class.
If you have to work to live, you’re working class. If your employer controls a significant portion of your life and time, you’re working class.
Technically Mangione had a white collar desk job, not unlike Brian Thompson.

And Luigi was carrying around more cash than most people his age have ever had in savings total.
And what good did that do him?
It’s not about money, its about wealth. You could have all the money in the world but if you have all the debts to pay then it means nothing.
Pretty certain he had all his debts paid off, or at the very least more than enough money and power to do so.

Mao Zedong, Fidel Castro…
Oh hey I can think of one poor one, Adolf Hitler.
Neither were most revolutionaries. This is a pattern that has long historical support.
Sure hope this doesn’t follow any patterns, based on past outcomes.
As I understand it his family owns multiple resorts and real estate and has multiple companies. Not really what I’d call lower class.
Family money isn’t necessarily his money, Grandpa may be a “pull yourself up by your bootstraps pussy” kind of guy.
