Luigi wasn’t lower class, tho? You could try to argue his family was middle class but even that’s a stretch, his grandfather donated a million dollars on a single event and Luigi attended both a Private High School where he was Valedictorian and he had a Masters Degree from Ivy League University of Pennsylvania.
You can be rich and still fight against an oligarchy. That’s why it’s class warfare. His actions line up with the poor fighting back against the rich using the same tools they use: murder.
There’s no higher, middle or lower class. Those are all lies from the owning class to divide the working class and it seems like they’re working on you.
Thompson’s net worth was estimated at approximately $42.9 million as of February 16, 2024
His total compensation in 2022 was reported to be $9.86 million, comprising a base salary of $1 million, stock awards, option awards, and non-equity incentive plans.
Thompson had “fuck you” money. The guy was at no risk of needing employment. Equating Thompson with the working class is a joke.
I guess people from lower class can’t stand for themselves as they are busy surviving. Revolutionnary figures were often from middle class (Lenine, Che…)
He wasn’t in charge, tried to overthrow the government the first time but failed, spent 6 years pandering, and then he was the absolute authority for over a decade leading up to his death. The only thing that stopped him was Germany being conquered by the Allies and USSR.

Do you have to be a slave to fight against slavery?
To be a Lower Class Hero and Icon you have to be Lower Class, yes.
Nobody called John Brown the Slave Hero or the living symbol of a Slave fighting oppression.
People’s perception of Luigi is fantasy fiction.
Incorrect
Your being a jackass obviously they ment “he is a hero to the lower class”.
He’s a class traitor, to our side. So a working class hero, as in a hero to the working class.
Hmm

His family owns a lot of real estate.
Neither were most revolutionaries. This is a pattern that has long historical support.
Sure hope this doesn’t follow any patterns, based on past outcomes.
Worker class is the true unifier. You can be lower, mid, and upper worker class.
If you have to work to live, you’re working class. If your employer controls a significant portion of your life and time, you’re working class.
Technically Mangione had a white collar desk job, not unlike Brian Thompson.

And Luigi was carrying around more cash than most people his age have ever had in savings total.
You need to do some market research

Mao Zedong, Fidel Castro…
Oh hey I can think of one poor one, Adolf Hitler.
A bit confused where this one is going
Just naming successful revolution figures, that’s all.
I don’t think anyone would consider Hitler successful in the long term.
He wasn’t in charge, tried to overthrow the government the first time but failed, spent 6 years pandering, and then he was the absolute authority for over a decade leading up to his death. The only thing that stopped him was Germany being conquered by the Allies and USSR.
As I understand it his family owns multiple resorts and real estate and has multiple companies. Not really what I’d call lower class.
Family money isn’t necessarily his money, Grandpa may be a “pull yourself up by your bootstraps pussy” kind of guy.
That’s more upper class, I can’t imagine real rich people would their own like that. But who knows.
I also don’t approve any attacks on his character via this angle. It is important to discuss but the mans work speaks for itself.
His class is secondary discussion here.
IMHO
