They took down the gofundme. He’s got a bit of an online footprint that’s being actively picked over. Apparently, he got picked up in Pennsylvania, for “being weird”, presumably from staying awake most of the last week. . So far he has not said anything. Whatever manifesto they got him with has not made the rounds, and frankly I’m not overly enthused about getting ahold of it, but yeah., If I have an excess of time and money in the coming seasons . We’ll be hearing from him and helping Mr. Mangione out.
Like I said, extensive online footprint that is being picked over as we speak. I saw a LinkedIn profile that has since been deleted, but of course it was screenshot. People disappear in a lot of the important ways when they go to prison, but we’ll do what we can.
We don’t have to call everybody who works with code a “tech bro”. He seems like a perfectly normal and relatable person.
But I’ve been saying that and being downvoted for it for years.
If anything it sounded like he wanted to be a game dev and gave up on it (probably because it actually kind of sucks as a cog in a AAA company) and that sounds like a ton of people I know.
Human interaction is important. One of the problems with capitalism is the commodification of that human interaction (or what that human interaction used to provide for free). Really only the last point diverges, but it is somewhat related in that a shared set of activities can bring forth positive human interactions (e.g. progressive movements have come up or gained momentum from church gatherings, see the civil rights movement in the US).
Holy shit it’s the guy that has the username I wanted.
Hello fellow hark! As someone who hasn’t been able to obtain the name elsewhere, I feel your pain.
He’s spitting facts though
You can take my japan real hole from my cold dead hands
You win, I don’t wanna get anywhere near your cold dead hole.
( ͡ᵔ ͜ʖ ͡ᵔ )
You only say he is relatable because he wanted to kill a rich guy who profited by being terrible.
I worked in Tech Startups, not in the Valley but in London UK, and the Tech Bros aren’t the Techies, they’re the Founders and nowadays (unlike back in the 90s when I also was in the Industry) Founders are generally not Techies but rather people from a salesmanship-heavy background (so Finance types, Marketing types and so on).
Blaming Techies for the shit from Tech Bros is just profound ignorance, since the mindset that make a person good at coding (such as attention to detail and favoring precisision and clarity) are the very opposite of the Tech Bro behaviour (promising the impossible, weaving fantastic stories about Tech and making broad and vague claims about how Society works and what Tech can do).
Yeah! Like, no doubt there is at least something else relatable about him.
I worked in tech for decades. We’re not all ‘tech bros’, bro. Most people I worked with are entirely normal.
He’s relatable because, aside from going to fancy schools, his life experiences are very similar to mine.
Nope. He still didn’t do it. I don’t care what links I have shoved in my face. This guy didn’t do it.

I want to live in an America where this guy specifically goes free and then later gets rich off of a book titled something like “If I Did It, This Was Why”
🤔
Wow. She had enough money to live in a million dollar house, send her kids to expensive prep schools but that kind of money is nothing in the face of severe medical expenses in the US of A. It’s worth remembering that if you don’t have 10’s of millions or really hundreds of millions of dollars, you’re a bad medical situation away from physical, mental and financial ruin.
I’m glad they took him alive, and that the jury will get to hear/read this.
Seriously. Dude is traumatized by what happened to his mother.
Christ… What a grim read. :(
Holy fuck. Luigi Mangione is a hero. May he live to find a cure for his pain, and may his name inspire us to take action.

Just feel the need to remind everyone that this is unverified and Ken Klippensten on Bluesky is saying he does think it’s real
Can we stop posting this? Likely fake. It has been circulated as the manifesto, but is roughly 1500 words despite authorities stating the real one is handwritten and 262 words.
Also if you look at snapshot history, there are only any from today and yesterday.
It rings true to me and I have not seen it debunked.
Just because he had something written on his person doesn’t mean he wouldn’t post more elsewhere. He scheduled Youtube videos to come out, too.
real one just hit the press and has been confirmed by authorities https://www.kenklippenstein.com/p/luigis-manifesto
seen others saying his mother is alive and well
You should make this a top level reply considering OP specifically talks about it not yet being available.
Just finished reading it and the beliefs it espouses don’t seem consistent with what we’ve uncovered so far about his social media activity. That manifesto reads like it was written by an anarchist, and everything else on Luigi’s social media suggests he was more of a libertarian techbro.
Soon you are only allowed to buy an AR15 provided that you are in perfect health.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend
Well, it all makes too much sense now.
Really? This is just the story I thought everyone was expecting?
There were rumours being spread that he’s insane.
It all seems very logical to me.Him being insane is the only way this doesn’t spread. How convenient.
It’s the system that is insane. The system that rewards the most immoral, unethical, criminal, and corrupt with wealth and power. The system that enables a psychopathic plutocracy.
And that’s why he’s not crazy
I’d buy “disturbed” but not “insane.” dude was too effective anbassassin to be “insane.” I’m convinced he acted upon a genuine grievance.
Back pain is a killer.
Chronic pain can make people do things they normally wouldn’t do
