Comment on Luigi Mangione, accused of US CEO murder, depicted in London mural
Maggoty@lemmy.world 2 weeks agoThe guy lives and committed his crime on the other side of the ocean in a context which does not exist in this country.
The word “tenement” has a negative connotation specifically because of the UK’s treatment of the working poor. The Grenfell Tower was only 8 years ago. You guys might not have the health insurance issue we have but you certainly have the “Paradise class killing and causing suffering for monetary gain” problem that is the root cause of both issues.

By far the most coherent response, thank you. I still think the contexts are sufficiently different that I find it odd that anyone would feel the need to paint his face on a wall thousands of miles away.
