New York Times instructs staff to not publish photos of Luigi Mangione’s face

Is shooting one person a mass shooting?
- I wouldn't think I'd need to explain this to you, as a once "very important person".
  But some people are simply worth more than others. They are better, you see.
  There exists a hierarchy of individuals in which some individuals have more inherent value than other individuals, a ranking if you will.
  Upholding the hierarchy is akin to upholding the laws of nature, and acting against the hierarchy is akin to breaking the laws of nature and is, by definition, evil.
  It is clearly mental illness to consider yourself equal to your betters, and I'd advise everyone to seek aid if they feel the need to flatten any hierarchies.
  
  I did card check for public sector employees, raised the minimum wage, and tried to sell a senate seat. I do not recognize the laws of the richest Americans, which is how I became a political prisoner and developed a relationship with Donald Trump.
  
  This is a brave post when not using a .hexbear account
  
  Well said. This is why I always ask what people do for a living after asking for their name to determine if it is worth my time to engage in interaction with them.
  P.S. I never remember their name. I always remember their profession. Janitor? NEXT
- in this case it was a center mass shooting
  
  This made me nod like Zak galafanakis on the bus. Well done.
- They're trying to insist he has mass shooter vibes and they're furious he doesn't have the chudjak look
  
  nobody's buying the incel angle, he just doesn't fit the bill
- I guess if he’s a big guy
  
  For you?
  Are we bane posting now
- Governor:
  Nice interview with that chapo boy, Felix
  Keep up the crimes. Good job. You're always the real governor in my heart
  
  Thanks. I think we can all recognize that the senators are the real criminals, not the guy selling the senate seat.
- Words don't mean anything
- Center of mass shooting
- Only if they're a fat cat.

So now do we see how this CEO is being treated as more than a single life?
(Most of the questions I ask on this sub are directed towards people who will never see them lmao)
- Well there' all the other CEOs who have had to take their linked in profiles down and think twice before going to sxbx. That's basically social death--- well, social disease. And if you add all those illnesses up, and use stats, it's about 3 deaths in total distributed across all of them.
  So you see he is a mass assassinator.
- The CEO was a mass murderer. By Highlander rules
  absorbs all the past Quickening of other people's lives that Brian Thompson was responsible for making The Adjustor a mass murderer vicariously.

Funny comparing it to a mass shooting when he specifically chose a gun instead of a bomb so he could avoid innocent casualties.
- A "surgical strike", if you will.

Imagine we get copycats purely from how hot he is, lmao.
- Supermodels going full hitman against CEOs.
  
  But why male models?
  
  Derek Zoolander has entered the chat
  But why male models?

I always see the death of journalists as a great tragedy and injustice when they're targeted in the name of imperial interests. But man, American journalists need a goddamn purge.
- they are content creators posing as journalists
  
  They're propagandists. Journalism and propaganda are intrinsically tied, and western journalists are responsible for poisoning the minds of entire populations.
- The thing you have to remember is that none of these people are journalists
  
  Unironically there's practically no actual journalists in the west. They're either aware of what they're doing or brainwashed to such an extent they don't notice it, which is pretty piss-poor for someone whose task is to peer through propaganda and tell what's actually going on. Both groups need to be buried like the bones this pup buries in their back yard

they call it a mass shooting because they consider the CEO to be worth the lives of thousands of proles
- Makes sense. After all, he works 1000x as much as the lazy ungrateful employees on the floor, as reflected by his salary. Luigi basically did a little 9/11.

Jesus christ, that "lingo" they use. So insufferable.

clinton cargill's peabrain mentions mass shooters twice, as if this wasnt an ultra-targeted murder. truly the dumbest people on earth
Death to America
- Clinton Cargill
  surely not related to that cargill family?? ah who am I kidding its nyt hes defs a billionaire failson

Team, please dial down the commentary on our clients denying claims for arbitrary reasons. Rate of profit tends to decline etc
Happy to discuss
- Not to be overly technical but small correction: our clients are the shareholders and they're not the ones denying claims. Its a small meaningless distinction but wanted to make sure were being totally clear for the new folks :)
  
  Ounce of precaution, etc
- AGL closing with 'Happy to discuss is chef's kiss

so they'll plaster white school shooters mugshots all over their 24/7 coverage but when its an ALLEGED ceo shooter they pull out the @Civility@hexbear.net card. ofc this lolbertarian is an incoherent loser but the reality inventing is so obvious lol

I hate it when you can physically FEEL the reality invention happening in real time
- Constantly. That consent ain't gonna manufacture itself..

I was gonna doubt this, but Ken never misses with the hot leaks. He's really been on MSM's ass about this situation too. Basically calling them out for the corporate shills we always knew they were. He was making the ultra libs rage post over on liberal twitter (bluesky) during the whole "manhunt" timeline. Quotes because the cops 1000% failed to hunt a man... some boomer at McDonald's who watches too much CNN/Fox News ratted his ass out.
Imagine being some crime-obsessed boomer drooling for 60 years waiting to call the cops on some "FBI most wanted" style criminal. You're standing in line, sipping your free boomer coffee (real thing btw), and glance over to see a handsome, vaguely-ethnic fellow with furry caterpillars over his eyes. You snitch his ass out, cops come and give you the least enthusiastic "thanks, dumb ass." of all time, and haul the guy off mid-hashbrown.
Fast forward to Christmas Day with your grandkids visiting. You tell your ungrateful shit grandkids who never call or visit that you were the one who caught the killer! You see your kid, their parent, look around nervously right before the grandkid says "Oh wow, grandpa! But Dad said that bad man deserved it. Right, Dad?"
Crimestopper Grandpa's monkey's paw

I mean, cat's out of the bag already
I really do think they never expected someone like Brian Thompson to get clapped and it's breaking their brains to an extent
Gotta point out the contradictions where they appear and ensure that people see the system laid bare
Preferential treatment for the rich, even the dead ones
- You just walk in there like you belong. ..They're so proud of themselves. They don't even care. They're so fat and satisfied they can't imagine it.

  I'm convinced that this is why the American government response to 9/11 was a panicked lashing-out. Wealthy Americans were attacked directly on their home soil. It disproportionately killed the sorts of people who have the wealth and connections to work on upper floors of office towers with expensive leases.
  
  That and the pentagon. IIRC there was an over representation of MIC companies in the trash centers as well.

feckless losers the lot of them

Oh hey look, a behind the scenes tour at the consent factory. Neat!

"Stop publishing the face picture so people maybe we won't notice that his unibrow doesn't match the shooter's clearly defined and separated eyebrows." Not convinced that he is claiming credit for / being blamed for someone else's actions.
- I don't really get what the point of shoveling this conspiracy around is. The early photos were low resolution security cameras zoomed in. Shit like thin hair in the middle of a unibrow can disappear into the skin during compression.
  Maybe its him, maybe its not him, but this entire conspiracy theory is kinda based on nothing.
  
  It's not like it's just a few pixels in the middle of his brow
  In the security footage the eyebrows end way before the eyes do.
- they found his fingerprints at the starbucks he went to
  the picture of him in the taxi isn't high enough resolution to show the unibrow
  it's definitely him
  Death to America
  
  Forensics outside of trial cannot be trusted. Hell, forensics during trial are often completely untrustworthy. I highly doubt we will know the veracity of the fingerprints claim until trial.
  
  Fingerprints and all other forensics are often faulty if not outright doctored

I was mulling over the idea of this case vs mass shooter today while running errands.
There is only 1x target so definitionally it can't be "mass".
To my mind it is somewhat of a puzzle, why he would do this, and only go for 1x target. Since he seems to have had no cover story or way to get out of it. Why not just go to speech this guy was supposed to give and find a few more viable targets? Surely if you are willing to go this far with no escape plan... I guess it depends on what this guy's precise motivations were.
He also didn't have any kind of "suicide by cop" thing going on, which the mass shooters love because it removes them from any kind of accountability. Eventually we'll learn if he thought he'd get away with it. Mass shooters never think they're gonna get away with it.
- It's the reason I initially was getting tin foil hat about whether he was a fall guy. My current best guess to explain the discrepancy is that he was basically wavering back and forth on trying to get away Scott free or fully martyr himself.

They are shook

Mental health questions, shocking crime, manifesto, etc., etc.
That etc., etc. is doing a comical amount of legwork huh?
- I legit can’t think of what to replace one etc. with, let alone a second etc.

Well I don't think they should be plastering his face everywhere anyway, since he's not been found guilty.

American "journalists" always finding new ways of keeping more information from the grabby, clammy hands of the public. Very important work! I'm glad these uniquely virtuous and sagely oracles are handed the responsibility of dialing it back (it being giving the public relevant information on current events)

Look forward to the next images:
Chatgpt, give me a photo of a man in shadows playing with bleach bottles and IEDs and make it look like those are necessary components of a making a 3D-printed pistol.

his profile matches one of a mass shooter... the news value and public service of showing his face is diminishing
As if they don't plaster ever mass shooter's face all over the front page??
- He shot 1 person. By definition that is NOT a mass shooter

nite
Yeah that's it, just go ahead and cluster bomb Manhattan at this point

Dorks

He's turning the frogs gay!
