“To the Feds, I’ll keep this short, because I do respect what you do for our country. To save you a lengthy investigation, I state plainly that I wasn’t working with anyone. This was fairly trivial: some elementary social engineering, basic CAD, a lot of patience. The spiral notebook, if present, has some straggling notes and To Do lists that illuminate the gist of it. My tech is pretty locked down because I work in engineering so probably not much info there. I do apologize for any strife of traumas but it had to be done. Frankly, these parasites simply had it coming. A reminder: the US has the #1 most expensive healthcare system in the world, yet we rank roughly #42 in life expectancy. United is the [indecipherable] largest company in the US by market cap, behind only Apple, Google, Walmart. It has grown and grown, but as our life expectancy? No the reality is, these [indecipherable] have simply gotten too powerful, and they continue to abuse our country for immense profit because the American public has allwed them to get away with it. Obviously the problem is more complex, but I do not have space, and frankly I do not pretend to be the most qualified person to lay out the full argument. But many have illuminated the corruption and greed (e.g.: Rosenthal, Moore), decades ago and the problems simply remain. It is not an issue of awareness at this point, but clearly power games at play. Evidently I am the first to face it with such brutal honesty.”

Post got removed in .world for not being a “news source” even though Klippenstein is definitely a very established independent journalist, so trying again here I guess.

I think the backpain part is true, according to people who know him it was a surfing accident. His reddit account also talks about chronic pain and complications from that, like brainfog.

Fuck off with that shit dude. I had a massively herniated disc, l5-s1, that’s led to numbness in my leg and foot as well as chronic back pain. I’m not doubled over all day. I’m not forced to use a walker or a cane or something. I can move around, but certain things will lead to my paying for them in the next few hours or days.

I’ve gotten in full on fist fights after my back shit. I was still able to hold my shit down and stomp the dude who jumped me out, but I literally couldn’t move the next day once the adrenaline wore off and and my back muscles started seizing up.

I suspect the second indecipherable is because they did not want to give the public a “name” to unite behind, kinda like how democrats started calling enemies “weird”.

Imagine if he called them “assholes” or smth, the public would latch onto that and use it as a rallying standard.

Not like we needed help calling them that, and his calling them “parasites” earlier seems at least slightly less generic and more cutting

I think there’s something else being withheld. This might sound a bit crazy, but there have been a lot of 286s involved. Denial code 286, Breloom, 286 tweets, following 286 people, caught 286 miles away from the scene of the crime, and the manifesto is not 286 words, but 262?

Is that 3 or 250 page copy?

Asking for a friend.

I have a weird feeling they are making this shit up as they go.

The info drip drives us where they want us talking at every turn.

Nobody is talking about the dead parasite or the corruption. I think they are looking for this to blow over.

Job is done, back to work peasants you got premiums to pay. Don’t ya?

286, same as the amount of people he was following on twitter, distance the McDonald’s was from the scene, and the Pokémon index id of the one in his Twitter banner.

I guess it depends on how you count…

262 words here:

https://www.tmz.com/2024/12/10/luigi-mangione-manifesto-revealed/

Also 262 words:

Using your methodology, Proverbs 26:2

As the bird by wandering, as the swallow by flying, so the curse causeless shall not come.

Hmm… I never did like the King James version.

As the sparrow escapes, and the swallow flies away, so the undeserved curse will never hit its mark.

I don’t know what’s so suspicious. The manifesto’s pretty clear and* to the point and what I’d expect. Certainly not what I’d expect some leech to make up to make him look crazy.

Strong point it is pretty direct and to the point. Apparently reddit suppressing it.

I am not sure why even try, this the hotest piece of text content released in decades or century

If he posted under his Twitter account, he would prolly hit 10millie subs within few days lol

Eh, it’s really not all that exciting. It’s more a note to police with a brief motive outline than a manifesto. That’s not a diss. With the words on the casings the act was manifesto in and of itself. In fact I think this gives a much smaller character attack surface than a long rambling manifesto could.

Making it up? Lemme tell you a secret:

If you want to fight this the easiest way is to blow the man up into legend status. Create a martyr. Play their game. Imo at least.

I am starting to lose faith that Luigi is the Adjuster tbh

Media is working too hard to protray Luigi as him but so far if we look at verifable facts:

  1. parasites gets done in NYC
  2. five days letter they apprehend a young man in PA
  3. Who happens to have the entire conviction start park on his person (could easily be planted by them) along with that YouTube video which they could have easily done to spice things ip Up
  4. he has been missing for a few weeks allegedly and has had health issues (this part is where they set him up so viable lead)

But where is the evidence that he actually did the job?
