    Strangely reminds me of the Always Sunny episode where they convinced people that a water stain on their kitchen wall was the Virgin Mary, and Charlie started blessing people. On a serious note tho, portraying Luigi Mangione and Donald Trump as saviors seems equally fucked up to me.

      1 is not the same, trump is treated as a god emperor by his followers, and he can do no wrong despite what he has done. the other being showing what was wrong with the society and backing why he did it.

      I doubt most people see Luigi as a savior, just a symbol of retribution in a world that lacks justice
