I think some of the disagreement about moderation of Luigi’s Mansion comes from people missing the boat on his actual politics. He was not just a wacky musk stan, here is one of the guys I saw listed in connection with him: https://substack.com/@picopaco/notes note the hits such as “Racial Group Differences are primarily genetic in origin” and “The Great Palestine Lie”. I saw a few other nazi adjacent people on his substack and twitter, but I cant find it anymore, same goes for the thing where luigi actually follows this guy. If anyone has the actual post, I would appreciate a link to it!
I would be more sympathetic to trying to claim him if he was just talking about how AI is going to do whatever stuff tech bros are talking about now, and I would assume most people trying to claim him are thinking he was in this group.
Would you rather the right claim him?

I would like to know more about this guy before I cast some sort of judgement on him. I feel like a lot of people have already made up their minds on who he is when the honest truth is that at the very least I don’t know who he is. Mod decisions are flying around based on this guy I know little about. It’s difficult to know what’s true about this guy and what’s false, so I don’t really have the ability to comment on how “good” or “bad” he is really. I try to follow Mao’s “No investigation, no right to speak” when I can.

I can cheer for the act and use it as a jumping-off point for talking to people about how capitalism thrives on our suffering. I don’t have to like this guy or defend him in any way other than “yeah that was pretty fuckin funny huh?”
I mean, he’s also a snacc.
But I agree, there’s very little point pretending he was a model human being, just because he did a good thing.

This is not American fascism, this is 18th century race science.
The more I learn about this guy, the less I like him
If I was a nazi with connections to a guy who just shot a billionaire I’d probably hide my connection to him too so as to not be accused of radicalising him.
