2/4/2021 Update: In light of chucklefuck TERF shit with Giggle, I am once again demanding the rest of you liberals educate yourselves on trans issues with Trans Liberation as a starting point. And you better believe more literature on minority struggle is in the pipelines. We're doing some reading this month, libs. Get ready.
AUDIOBOOKS HAVE BEEN RECORDED FOR ALL 8 CHAPTERS. YOU LITERALLY HAVE NO EXCUSE FOR LIBERALISM.
https://hexbear.net/post/48476
Follow that link and you'll find a free download of the book in pdf and comrade @EugeneDebs's epub, comrade @futomes' audiobooks for all eight chapters, and notes and discussions from the book (and don't you dare just read the fucking notes you god damn liberals, read the fucking book or listen to the audiobook).
I spent an entire weekend night scanning the whole damn book so y'all could educate yourselves on the fucking struggles we've been screaming about for the past six months and hardly any of you damn cissie libs participated. Had you participated you'd probably have a better understanding of the struggles we face and we probably wouldn't be in this situation where trans people are heading for this damn hills because you're all shit libs driving us away.
Fucking read it or listen to the audiobooks and I won't ask again. It's all free. The book is only 147 pages - that's 7 pages per night for exactly 3 weeks. I wipe my fucking ass with 7 pages, that's nothing. People put genuine effort into this to ensure you could educate yourselves and you have no reason not to outside of fucking liberalism.
It reads quick. Drop whatever the fuck you're reading and read this. Now. :leslie-shining:
~~Edit: I'll be throwing up a discussion thread at some point in the next week or so for you damn shitlibs to comment on with things you find meaningful so I'll know if you actually gave a shit. I swear to God I better see y'all in the comments.~~
If you're having trouble downloading, there are links in this comment by u/hexaflexagonbear that seem to work.

I hope the struggle session was worth it.

re: image source
(Image: Mario and Sonic Showing Support For Palestine by PetarMeMeMakerarts - I couldn't find any image of Luigi wearing a keffiyeh which itself argues against the present hypothesis.)
EDIT: Immediately after posting, I saw person interviewed outside the arraignment. But I don't know that person so I won't associate them with this sketchy piece of writing.
Palestine factor: Legitimacy of violent self-defense
Palestine is one of the reason why Luigi has the support amongst peasants as he has now, to the extent he has, even if we account for the general hatred insurance executives have amongst peasant population.
Western ruling class has exposed themselves so much by allowing their genocidal dog to commit crimes so openly, with full backing of all of Western states, they made quite a large percentage of peasants on the street to realize violence (self-defense form of violence) is a legitimate form of resistance to ruling class's unchecked crimes — whether those ruling class crimes are committed with/without legal sanction.
remainder of post
Luigi's alleged actions i.e sending insurance demon straight to hell wouldnt have had as much popular support, had it not been for everyone watching ruling class commit genocide with complete nakedness & with such brazenness, peasants (atleast a segment of peasants) realized if someone delivers even a tiny fraction of justice to ruling class for their crimes (even if they are a different segment of criminal ruling class, not the ones that are committing genocide), those actions are morally right & just.
I very much doubt the alleged vigilante would have had the same support in rest of society, if sizable segments of society were not already exposed to 14 months long genocidal crimes of Western ruling class against weak in Palestine — with such impunity, in such an open manner, defying any sense of morality, with such brazenness, for so long. Few Western states (Ireland & rest), who while not even doing bare minimum, are now trying to pretend they did not support Entity, while they aided Entity for a long time & haven't yet severed all connections with Entity.
Western propaganda pipelines i.e Media, Academia, "Journalists", Thinktanks, NGOs, etc have lost so much credibility defending & carrying water for Genocidal Entity, deceiving, lying, gaslighting so openly, for so long, a good chunk of peasant population not only stopped taking them seriously, rather started defaulting to following position:
If they say X is the truth, then its likely X is not the truth.
Ruling class is used to relying upon its collaborators in the propaganda pipeline to build credibility for them for so long, they assumed they will be able to change & control the narrative around Luigi's alleged actions, but unfortunately Western propaganda pipelines lost good chunk of control (they have not lost fully, but loss is not insignificant either), the peasants who support his actions are not insignificant % of population. Their size is bigger than many minority groups in Empire & the people who would support his actions will only grow, once the trial starts.
Tho Luigi's actions are unrelated to Palestine, the psychological change Empire's ruling class brought amongst peasants with its actions in Palestine, Empire's ruling class (+ rest of Western ruling classes too) have shown how illegitimate they are to everyone. Now, sizable % of the peasant population doesn't think their ruling classes have much legitimacy & violent tactics are as much legitimate as non-violent tactics, when ruling class's crimes are massive. This % is still not majority, not even a big %, but its larger than zero — unlike how it used to be before Palestinian genocide.

Interesting question I hadn't thought of before.
I wonder if the relationship is a bit different though. OP suggests the population is inured to violence having seen their govt dish it out so brazenly. That would be terrifying if true. I hope the people will not simply mimic the absolute worse aspects of the government.
But maybe there is something to the relationship. Over the past 1+ year, righteous resistance using force and violence has been quite legitimized among those who might have previously held a vague ideological passivism before. It's a less and less tenable position to hold as all other alternatives are totally exhausted. For the Palestinian people. But if its acceptable for them, then for who else?

Hello everyone!
Just a quick question on if you have a VPN and why? I'm struggling to see a reason beyond accessing media, but I already use Stremio plus AllDebrid for that (highly recommend by the way. ~4 USD a month for basically the netflix of torrents).
