It’s nice how the headline calls it “CEO slaying”, like he took down an evil dragon.

There’s always the search for the “videogame angle”. He’s a 26 year old, ofcourse he plays videogames. Everyone does. And I can guarantee you he’s played more violent games than Among Us. Stop trying to blame videogames please.

Further proof that if a person who did a bad thing played a video game – any video game – at least once in their life, the media will blame all video games for the bad thing they did instead of looking at any other factors that could have led that person to do the bad thing.

Reminds me of that time during the Gabby Petito case where the TikTok sleuths were all obsessing over her murderer reading *Annihilation* in one video – which is of course, as they characterised it, “a book about women who go missing”.

Nobody blames video games or movies or music when a state actor commits violence. Noone suggests that Russia invaded Ukraine because Vladimir Putin was into metal.

We really grasping at straws huh? *You’ve got the wrong guy.* The wildly circulated picture with the cutie is *not* the shooter. The jackets don’t match, first of all.
Second of all, this Luigi guy has a unibrow, The shooter doesn’t.
Thirdly, I’m suspect of the whole shenanigans that led to his arrest. He was *still* carrying the fake id, the gun and his manifesto? And this McDonalds worker happened to see them?
I’m no armchair detective, but come the fuck on.

At least in the last satanic panic the video games they said caused violence were actually objectively violent, imagine thinking a social deduction game is violent rather than strategy and discussion.

Well this explains why the UHC CEO’s body was found cut in half with one big bone sticking out of the middle.
