AP reports that Mangione apologized to the feds in his manifesto, saying he respected their work
Police arrested Luigi Mangione, 26, after a tip that he had been spotted at a McDonald’s in Altoona, Pennsylvania. Mangione had a gun consistent with the weapon used in the shooting and writings critical of the insurance industry, police said.
“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,” the document said, according to the official.
It also had a line that said, “I do apologize for any strife or traumas but it had to be done. Frankly, these parasites simply had it coming.”

That’s the one thing that makes me believe Luigi’s Mansion is the real guy. They are all like this.
Reminds me of one of the main FOIA guys who runs "The Black Vault" for UFO shit being like.
"I trust the government and appreciate all their good works, I just firmly believe in the civic value of government transparency and disclosure."
Probably my favourite kind of brainworms within the sphere of parapolitics, just a fundamentally endearing viewpoint to have.
My eternally melted brain post-Epstein is making me immediately think "No way this shit is real. They just want to try to pack him up by saying he confessed to avoid dealing with a jury and the possibility that people say "Eh... 🤷♂️""
This is being highly upvoted even on Reddit
Why is the hashtag still calling him an assassin while simultaneously implying he’s not lmfao
exactly what a cop would write while driving out to Altoona
They probably keep a ton of these "manifestos" on file, and swap things in as necessary.
what kind of "gamer techbro" writes a handwritten manifesto knowing that it makes it so much harder to publicize or replicate? but it makes sense if a cop is hand-copying it from ChatGPT to avoid having to provide online provenance or mock up a believable flash drive (with just this document on it?) and appropriate dates
turns out ChatGPT is most useful for frame-ups
You guys remember the manifesto that was a copy pasta from some other manifesto??
Okay I didn't buy the "planted manifesto" until now.
I fuckin called it (as did a few others)
Some people need better media literacy. MSM will never truthfully release what's actually in the manifesto if he even had a manifesto in the first place. The closest thing to a "manifesto" are compilation of his social media. And this is all assuming Luigi isn't being set up as a patsy.
How much longer is this site going to play pretend now that there is AP published evidence of him being a literal bootlicker?
I guess since he sucks it's now bad that he killed a POS ceo and demonstrated that the bourgeoisie aren't invincible.
Killing a POS CEO and demonstraing that the bourgeoisie aren't invincible is good even if the person who did it sucks
What is preventing you personally from redacting a healthcare CEO today? You don't have to answer. It's an easy question to guess at.
One dude having a break is not a movement, it's not proof of anything. Half of you just found out about propaganda of the deed yesterday and the day before, the half that knew about it, just regurgitated Lenin quotes against it.
By the way no serious anarchist or insurrectionist anarchist collective called a reactionary killing someone "propaganda of the deed" otherwise half of history would be considered "propaganda of the deed" by anarchists.
its not like he can undead the CEO
If he could, would that be based or cringe? He's an Ivy League guy, so his family probably has access to one of those good grimoires that let you raise wights instead of simple zombies, so on the one hand, he could get up to all kinds of CEO-on-CEO shenanigans, but on the other hand, that would also make him a wight supremacist.

adding this detail is such a hilarious example of lib brain
do not interpret this to mean that i think that luigi is good
Death to America
I'm currently coping and seething because the guy with a "Death to America" siggy on a forum thought my phrasing was a little cringe despite having an anarchist historian portmanteau user name. I'm literally neurodivergent and a miner.
If you had 2 braincells to rub together you'd understand that, the AP as an imperial liberal outlet would have a vested interest in showing this man as a puerile enemy of the state rather than creating apologetics ex nihilio around his views.
let's all instead pretend that cops are always 100% trustworthy
I mean, I don't even fully believe that this is the shooter, which makes all of the fantasies about him being some sort of avatar for working class resentment even more silly from my perspective. As far as I know he's just a guy with shitty beliefs and opinions who may or may not be getting strung up for a crime he didn't do, which like isn't good but I think some people are being a little goofy about this.
I mean, I’d like a primary source. I don’t trust AmeriKKKan “news” orgs to do anything but bootlick the cops, breathlessly reprint their press releases, and join in the attempts to quell unrest or class consciousness after events like this one.
I’m still hoping for more radicalization and adventurism even if this guy is a
and is also actually the culprit. I still got excited when McConnell’s sister-in-law ate shit in one of Elmo’s bazinga cars.
Lol CEO down 
Most Americans are bootlickers, he doesn't need to be the ideologically perfect specimen to say he did damn good in one regard.
Shit's bigger than him anyway. Look at the reaction. Look at the conversation that's starting.
Whatever his other tech-bro views are - I haven't seen a single miss in regards to how ghoulish the private healthcare system is and what needs to be done to fix it. That's what we should be looking at. That's what he did. When a politician has a shit take it's bad because they have power over things. This is just a young man, the only power he had he used in a good way. Unless he starts soapboxing about some other shit now that he could get some attention I really don't care.
Don't let perfect be the enemy of good enough.
stay mad about whatever it is you're mad about
Yeah there’s been a lot of copium since it turns out he’s not even remotely left wing
Easy: death of the author. If this is the guy his work is already out there for people to interpret & draw their own conclusions from, his own intentions/views don't really matter.
The assassination of a health insurance CEO was met with widespread popular support. We saw people with signs & banners with the message the shooter left at the scene. It's still too early to say but we may get copycats following in their footsteps.
The shooters own views/reasons matter less than what people take away from this, and it seems like the takeaway is plenty of Americans (and others) support killing health insurance executives.
This site underestimates the stupidity of American people and their thoughts
I mean its a Setup anyway , State can not leave such a Act without presenting somebody that fits .. so they proably wrote that selfloving stuff in there as well .. Btw how nice that he had so much compromat on him , without it , that would be a really hard case to make in Court.
Yeah at this point I am 99% sure this Luigi guy is not the actual shooter. People need to stop taking the feds and NYPD at their word like what the fuck people.
IMHO this would have been required whether it was his idea or not
Apologize to the feds?
Yeah, I don't trust NYPD or the feds. While the official line isn't impossible, it seems a bit too good to be true for them. I'm in the camp there's a good chance it isn't
and they needed someone to frame.From that point of view, it makes sense that the feds want to look better for still failing to have caught the real assassin.
Assuming he isn't just a patsy, he should've released the manifesto. Now we're going to have MSM make up some bullshit that was never there. And whatever manifesto that eventually gets released will almost certainly be completely made up by the feds.
I refuse to believe someone who executed an assassination so cleanly would have such a dogshit manifesto.
Will this even lead to a conviction, or will they just throw 12 multimillionaires in there and explain to them how jury nullification isn't real?
I find it really funny how a really smart person just suddenly became very dumb
Idk how you can say it’s not him though?
Multiple fake ids and the ghost gun pretty much settles it
Not really all that could have been planted. Can we please just wait to hear from this suspect.
Id like to read the whole thing instead of a select quote. It's a manifesto not a tweey
