I have a feeling he didn’t mean to kill the blackstone ceo, just a stroke of good luck
At least something positive came out of this tragedy.
God works in mysterious ways
One of life’s happy little accidents
Maybe schools in America need to start getting CEOs to come and do talks there for the kids. Then maybe there can be considerably more happy little accidents out of horrific events that have no solution.
almost certainly he intended to go after the NFL people
This is HORRIBLE! DOESNT he know that if you Want to Commit a MASS SHOOTING in the United States you MUST Target a SCHOOL and NOT places where Rich People wor"KKK"?
So inconsiderate! That CEO had a bright future ahead of him.
How could someone do this. The line was going up!
Her
And I can’t believe he shot that new intern. The other CEOs and managers were looking forward to humiliating and mentally torturing them! The evening’s entertainment was ruined!
I was in NY 2 blocks away when this happened. This dude has no redeeming qualities and would have happily shot you for looking at him funny.
He wanted to kill people from the NFL but did no reconnaissance and ended up murdering 4 completely unrelated people.
His manifesto is also just complete madness.
Edit to add: If anything this is another reason why there should be more publicly available resources for combating mental health issues and tighter gun control. But we all know there will only be thoughts and prayers and no real change coming any time soon.
His manifesto is also just complete madness.
I mean that’s expected, he had CTE after all
Yeah the important part is not that he couldn’t put together a thesis, it’s that there’s a multi billion dollar industry that gives the hope of millions and stardom to young males as long as they sacrifice their brain health.
You should see what the military asks and offers.
I certainly agree. It’s a tragedy all around.
Thoughts and prayers are for the poors. This guy killed rich people. Mark my words, action will be taken.
The CEO killed people every week, just not with a firearm.
Capitalism doesn’t acknowledge social murder because doing so would call into question the entire resource extraction imperative of Capitalism itself.
and that dude also killed 3 innocent people
Edit: I stand corrected.
One was a cop playing security guard for the oligarchy so two relatively uninvolved collaborators at best.
I wonder why the news isn’t yelling about how sweet, uninvolved, and innocent those two were?
Yep. Pinkertons and armed henchmen are not innocent and are fair game.
And who knows what happened to the 3rd person? Could have been stray bullets from those two panicking goons. You know how the NYPD loves to kill innocent bystanders with their mindless mag dumps
Hope that 60/hr was worth it!!!
Keep defunding mental health and social welfare, see where it gets you. Feel bad for the recent college grad and the security guard. Not so bad for the cop and the CEO of the corrupt investment firm.
Therapy for a year through my insurance: 900 dollars out of pocket.
Glock 19 gen 5: 550 dollars out of pocket.
Hmmmmmm, I wonder why this country is so fucked up.
Rent-a-cop could have been guarding a school and died saving children. Instead he died guarding an evil building filled with soulless ghouls. No sympathy.
bro stopped a mass murderer
Something about dicks fucking assholes
This headline can easily be part of an intended effort to associate the luigie situation with any shooting of a CEO or business leader. Reasons matter. Protecting luigie means enforcing strict conceptual differentiating between him and other acts of violence. We know there’s a difference, we need to enforce that difference in every space the topic comes up. As soon as Luigie is successfully lumped in with random acts of violence, he loses the public sentiment that is his best protection.
Reasons matter.
I mean, you’re not going to want to scratch to hard at Luigi Mangione. He’s a few shades shy of a Zizian, himself. Luigi was deep in with the Silicon Valley Longtermists and a big fan of techno-libertarianism.
That doesn’t mean Brian Thompson didn’t deserve to have his skull ventilated. It just means you aren’t going to want to turn the shooter into a Messiah figure.
I think the tech bros are just trying to claim him as their own. They can’t have him. I think Luigi was mostly about volunteering at old folks homes and rehabilitating dogs rescued from fighting rings and puppy mills.
And sit ups. I was pissed when I seen that 8 pack… beers don’t even come in that size…
His popularity, certainly. But I’m not seeing Curtis Yarvin lining up to support gacking any of his biggest sugar daddies.
You’re literally doing what I just described.
I would only be impressed if somebody actually did something about the conditions that created the CEO in the first place.
Bullets are famously ineffective against these conditions.
You can shoot a capitalist, but you can’t shoot capitalism.
You can shoot a capitalist, but you can’t shoot capitalism.
Not with that attitude you can’t.
If we can shoot at tornados, we can find a way to shoot at capitalism.
You shoot enough capitalists tho…
You’re talking about tens of millions of people.
Not at all. I’m talking about a few hundred. Tops.
Most people who identify as capitalists aren’t. Theyre ideologues who like the idea of capitalism because they think theyll be the one wearing the boot stepping on all our necks one day. They don’t own capital. They don’t make fortunes leeching off the rest of us. They don’t ruin lives or kill thousands via social murder by denying housing, food, or medicine to extract a rent.
he wasn’t even motivated against capitalism. he was an athlete who suffered from CTE and asked for his brain to be examined in a note before he shot himself in the chest with a rifle (something that requires a bit of forethought - he deliberately saved his brain for analysis). https://nypost.com/2025/07/29/us-news/nyc-shooter-shane-tamura-thanked-a-cte-documentary-and-listed-names-of-prominent-neuroscientists-in-suicide-note-sources/
This was supposed to be anti pro-sports violence, I guess.
I bet they won’t even do a brain exam. It will be seen as “giving the killer what he wanted” and “disrespecting his victims” if they honor his request.
Most importantly the NFL will get to keep pretending everything is fine.
Most importantly the NFL will get to keep pretending everything is fine.
fuck. this is depressingly plausible.
Or maybe they’ll do the exam but the results will be inconclusive and the brain will end up misplaced so that his family can’t have have their own tests done. Hell, the NFL might start adding clauses to contracts that require players to donate their bodies “to science” upon death. Don’t they already require them to use “NFL approved” doctors? Anything to keep independent doctors from diagnosing CTE in their dead players.
Can’t even enjoy some sports without having to watch late stage capitalism grind humans into pieces.
I wouldn’t put any of it past that meat market circus we call pro sports.
This has to be the most brain dead propaganda take on the internet right now. Yeah he totally didn’t mean to kill who he killed. It was all a happy accident
you think he SHOT HIMSELF IN THE CHEST WITH A RIFLE on accident huh? lol…
The person is questioning the motivation (with pretty solid points), that doesn’t mean it was an accident. Ironically, your accusation just called your own reading comprehension and reasoning into question while you’re calling this dude brain dead
We can all read. I’m saying this was no coincidence. Only denial would have someone thinking that
Nobody is saying he wasn’t targeting them…
You know, killing the idea of a comfortable life is a pointless idea. Would you give up a delicious cake and tea just to raise the workers’ wages? There is no way to defeat capitalism while people are still alive this is my opinion.
Incorrect. Capitalism is failing in front of your eyes, you’re just not educated enough to know what it looks like.
Well, I completely agree that I’m not educated enough, you know, I’m not a particularly smart person. But madness, you know… It’s getting to the last now, fat freaks are trying to maintain their fragile power to the last. They think they’ll sit there and when the carnage is over they’ll come out and try to play at civilization again… We live in a crazy world, you know, these freaks might even succeed. I think you now think I’m crazy, but who do you think is normal in such a world?
It’s called fascism. It’s not some unknown deep sea creature, it’s human nature’s bad side. That said, we have no perfect economic system and capitalism sure isn’t it. Seeing the fallout now
Well, yes, the consequences are funny, this collapse is intoxicating in its own way.
People are able to tighten up the belt if they believe in the cause. And you can even rewind the clock on the capitalist system to see that people were contributing more and taking less for themselves.
Erosion of social structure was helped a LOT by targeted propaganda. Some of which is influencing your own thought process.
Think about it.
I think you’re right. Honestly, I doubt everything all the time. The propaganda that AI is still better, like adapt, peasants, has a particularly good effect on people. And then the thought struck me: what if we adapt in our own way?
Until we know more we shouldn’t.
We shouldn’t glorify a person. We should glorify a deed. His intention most likely wasn’t to shoot the bourgeoise, but just to shoot people. He just happened to get her.
But out of 4 victims we know one was a CEO and one was a cop. So only the other two may be innocents.
I neither praise nor blame him. I blame the NFL for not taking good care of him though. No-one deserved to die over that. Fuck capitalism.
He played like JV football in highschool. That was apparently enough brain damage for him to an hero himself though.
Hardly the first victim of TBI. The difference is him targeting a crowd of CEOs rather than lashing out at a family member or loved one.
Well he didn’t actually mean to target the Blackstone exec. He was going after the NFL offices in the building but ended up taking the wrong set of elevators. But hey it worked out anyways!
Last week, the Department of Justice announced it had filed an amended complaint to its antitrust lawsuit against RealPage in order to sue six of the largest U.S. landlords for their alleged participation in a nationwide rental price-fixing scheme. According to the complaint, the six landlords allegedly coordinated their rents with each other through use of RealPage’s pricing algorithms and direct communication with competitors about rents and occupancy, among other tactics. Of those six landlords, three are owned by private equity firms: Blackstone, Greystar Real Estate Partners, and Cortland Management.
Blackstone, the nation’s largest landlord, with around 350,000 rental units, has faced years of scrutiny from advocates for its poor treatment of tenants. In August, the Private Equity Stakeholder Project (PESP) and the Alliance of Californians for Community Empowerment (ACCE) published a report examining how Blackstone has profited from rent hikes and ramped up evictions in California. In 2021, Blackstone acquired 5,800 rental units in the San Diego area. Since then, the report showed, Blackstone has increased the rent at these properties 38% — almost double the 20% average rent increase for all apartments in the San Diego market during this period. The rent increase at some Blackstone-owned buildings was especially high – up to 79%. The report also noted how Blackstone touted to investors multiple times how the firm’s real estate investments benefit from declining new supply of housing, a key driver of the affordable housing crisis.
“As more and more Americans struggle with the cost of putting a roof over their heads, corporate landlords were allegedly colluding to raise rents ever higher,” said Jordan Ash, Director of Housing at PESP. “Everyday Americans can’t keep up with the cost of rent. Homelessness is skyrocketing. Folks are choosing between medicine and a place to live. We applaud the Department of Justice for taking decisive action to hold profiteers like Blackstone accountable.”

Respect.
Absolutely wild that someone with CTE can get an assault rifle in America.
to be fair your can’t definitively diagnose CTE without completely tearing apart someone’s brain
Sometimes. The original discovery by Dr. Omalu involved post mortem samples but MRI will sometimes show evidence of atrophy in living brains when victims show symptoms obvious enough to arouse suspicion and bully insurance companies into paying for the deserved healthcare.
Fun Fact: after exposing the NFL’s cover-up of CTE he also exposed the murder of Stephon Clark by Sacramento PD.
