I'm surprised at how much of a negative response this generated. Had no idea the average hexbear disliked the doomscroll guy so much.
They get to his medical stuff eventually, but in light of Luigi's super active lifestyle and all the backpacking and whatnot that he did, and his choice to kill the CEO of an insurer who wasn't his insurer, I think the exploration of the "e/acc radicalisation" aspect is pretty important. We haven't seen a lot of (any?) direct action come out of that particular trashfire of ideology until now. It always seemed like tech bro wankery enjoyed by people too successful and benefiting of the status quo to have an incentive to do something like this.
But instead we get perhaps the first lone wolf propaganda of the deed type action in a very long time. I think it's fascinating tbh.
