@vozercozer Luigi was the type of person that identifies the imposter immediately, but then gets ejected by a slim majority because the imposter's slightly more charismatic on the surface and everyone really regrets it at the end i implore everyone to actually read the article before making an assumption that it was written in bad faith. i am considering deleting the OP merely because i donโt want to be responsible for spreading unwarranted misinformation @vozercozer Youโre all good. in all seriousness Forbes is like the only large legacy publication that seems to have people who take video games as an industry seriously. I don't know when exactly it happened, some time in the last decade, but it seems to actually allow millennial ass writers talk normally about games in their content. @vozercozer I want to see Forbes do a piece on hash browns, the breakfast food consumed by Luigi Mangione, alleged CEO shooter. @vozercozer what to know about mcdonalds, fast food chain used by ceo shooter luigi mangione @vozercozer Why talk about the obvious reasons when there are so many "potential" reasons that save us from doing so ... @vozercozer The media has been blaming (falsely and without actual evidence might I add) videogames since the fucking 90s. Holy fuck nothing changes with them. @vozercozer They try so, so hard to talk about anything BUT the actual cause of and reason for the assassination. @vozercozer "It's not the generational inequality or exploitation by the Healthcare Insurance Industry, ...its the Video Games........and maybe Rock and/or Roll...." ๐คก @Lazarou @vozercozer @dougiec3 @vozercozer DUNGEONS AND DRAGONS! SATANISM! SPIROGRAPHS! @vozercozer :D for what i've understood of the readerbase of forbers, maybe it is good they think it's among us that was the reason @vozercozer Distraction by real life gun violence big pew pew. @vozercozer Though I am pleased that someone has tried to parse about a goofy whodunit game, there are still those that will clutch their pearls. It is also not out of the realm of possibility that this will suffer from the Streisand Effect, which our society loves to fixate on, and look for hidden clues that are not there. Simply put, guy had a beef, a perceived wrong, and this is how he chose to remedy it. |

the article actually goes on to say that it would be silly to make the conclusion that Among Us had anything to do with the motive, emphasizing it's cartoony nature
