You can alternatively boycott them for genocide support.

    I'm not sure I buy the McDonald's worker story, the whole narrative of the arrest seems really bizarre. (Not that I eat their shit food, one way or another.)

    tbf: you shouldn't visit mcdonalds either way. its just not good. i never understood the hype and my guess is, that i'm not alone. from all the food the states exported mcdonalds might be my least favorite. us has way better food than mcdonalds

    McDonald’s also collaborated with Donald Trump’s staged propaganda, about a month and a half prior to Luigi getting arrested, to help get him elected for his second term. Ronald the clown begets Donald the clown.

    McDonalds is working with german right wing parties CSU and CDU. Their leaders ate a burger there during campain and now they massivly lower tax for huge restaurants only. There are even McDonalds ads about the lower tax law and cheap food.

    The lowered tax is for all restaurants, they just don't pass it on to customers.

    Well yes, more revenue means more taxes, more taxes mean more (absolute) profit from any given tax break. That doesn't mean small restaurants don't benefit from it. It's also true for any cost reduction. If electricity costs went down, McDonald's would also profit more (in absolute numbers) than mom and pop restaurants.

    Haven’t been to McDonald’s in probably 20+ years but I plan to continue not going to McDonald’s for at least another 20+

    Buddy, if you believe the whole "random McDonalds worker saw him and reported him" story rather than the government has tools at their disposal they aren't telling us about that allow them to track people, then you have a lot more faith in the official narrative than I do.

    I've been boycotting as much American stuff as I can after the "51st state" bullshit. The Luigi thing is just bonus.

    Same. Ever since they turned in Luigi, I refuse to go there.

    Haven't been to McD in more than 13 years (before my daughter was born), and don't plan on coming back.

    Isn't it a BDS subject anyway? Also it's super mid for fast foods, even in Poland

    I stopped going when they let Trump campaign from there.

    You're boycotting it, not for their support of Israel and the Palestinian holocaust, but for the fact that an employee ratted out a customer suspected in the based murder of a CEO?

    I boycott the Service Industry because they overwhelmingly Support right wing parties.

    I feel like im donating to fascism whenever i step a foot into a restaurant.

    Thats why i hate Tourist scum. They come here, drive our inflation because they pay the high praises, and after they are gone some of their money will go to the far right who fucks us all.

    Fuck the Service Industry. Fuck tourists

    Ah yes, generalising an entire group because of a single example. That's even worse than most racists.

    lol No. Racists will hate a race over zero examples. Then when one person does one bad thing, it's a whole new round of, "yep, can't expect much out of those [insert racist and demeaning term here]."

    I don’t think the person who turned him in will still work there, assuming they got the reward.

    are we hating on wage workers now? is that what it is?

    Wage workers that turn in justice fighters. (yes I know, not all mcd's workers/etc/etc. I mostly support boycotting mcd's because it's expensive trash that enriches a megacorp, not over Luigi)

    I thought from the story, the worker didn't even know who it was, way I heard it, a customer told them they saw someone with a gun. I don't really have a source on that, but I thought that was basically why they didn't get the bounty.

    First, what specifically are you mad about? Do you think he's innocent or do you just support vigilante justice? If you legitimately believe he's innocent, then why be mad at McDonald's? There are plenty of other reasons to avoid spending your money there. If you don't and just enjoy the thought of killing people you disagree with then you should be out celebrating alongside MAGA over the murder of Renee Good.

    This is a bizarre comparison.

    UnitedHealth, and therefore its leadership, are collectively responsible for the systemic social murder of many thousands. They (like the rest of the industry) are so ingrained into bipartisan government though lobbying and other forms of soft power that we have consistently seen no legal justice, and have no reason to expect it.

    Renee Good, on the other hand, was not responsible for mass death and not an ongoing threat to millions of innocent citizens.

    Killing fascists is good. Its the only way to reign them in. We will need to kill a lot of people in coming years.

    Renee goode was a normal civilian without Agenda, like yours ;)

    You'll be killing innocent women, kids, dogs, etc. all claiming they were fascists or human shields. No wonder Democrats supported genocide. You're obviously too weak though to ever do anything like Luigi.
