    Luigi: Killed a man who made money off of human suffering.

    Vance Luther Boelter: Killed someone who wanted to let women control their own bodies because he wanted women to be broodmares.

    I don’t know why people instantly call me Nazis for having different opinions than them. Like sure I don’t care but this will lower the weight of the word, like Lemmings and members of the extended Fediverse have been doing for the better part of 2 years.

    Support Luigi or not, or call me literally Hitler, I could not give less of a shit. The double standard is absolutely real and contributes to making the Fediverse even more of an echo chamber than it already is. When you call people genociders and incels for not conforming to the majority, you heavily alienate them. I have been saying this for months.

    Since you guys only think in absolutes, a shitty meme is realistically the only way to get you guys to truly speak. And the only good response any of you can come up with is to shout “Nazi” until I give up? Come on guys.

    And believe me, I think both of these murderers are pieces of shit. They have both heavily damaged both of their respective political frameworks, creating heavy fighting that obscures the entire landscape.

    Continue doing this, and you will ostracize everyone who hasn’t drank the Kool Aid. You will see legitimate, actual Nazis (yes, I’m using the term correctly and not as just a prejorative) scooping up support. So because of that, and because of the overarching period of doom that is coming, I will always be against this hivemind type of thinking. If you think I’m a Nazi because of that, then so be it. I never liked any of you anyway.

      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2025_shootings_of_Minnesota_legislators

      I think it’s this? Person in picture is Vance Luther Boelter

      Federal charging documents described Boelter as acting with “the intent to kill, injure, harass, and intimidate Minnesota legislators”

      Boelter’s anti-abortion views were placed under consideration as a possible motive

      A friend of Boelter’s said after the attacks that Boelter was “a conservative who voted for President Donald Trump and was strongly against abortion rights”.

      The vehicle left in the driveway of the Hortman home contained a list of about 70 potential targets,[47] including “abortion providers, pro-abortion rights advocates, and lawmakers in Minnesota and other states”.[8] Hortman and Hoffman’s names appeared on the list alongside Walz, United States representatives Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, and Hillary Scholten, United States senators Amy Klobuchar, Tina Smith, and Tammy Baldwin, and Minnesota attorney general Keith Ellison.

      Four victims, two fatal; Melissa and Mark Hortman. John/Yvette Hoffman survived.
