Why would we like him less? Being privileged and throwing that away means he had more to lose and allegedly did it anyway.

They see it as hypocrisy to change your mind like that. No growth allowed I guess. We need more privileged people to realize their mistakes and use their extra power to fix it. People on the inside also know more about how to fix things in my opinion.

I don't think that Luigi was trying to fix anything, and if he was, it was a piss-poor way of doing it. Killing one guy isn't going to change the system. What he did was an act of vengeance on a system that had fucked him over.

~~What did he change his mind on? He thought that he was too good to get fucked over that way, and as far as I know, he still does.~~

ETA: Okay, I forgot that they published his manifesto. He did oppose the US healthcare system, although I still believe that his motivation came from personal circumstances.

Yet here we are talking about him

Yes, we are. What's your point?

I never said that he wasn't noteworthy.
