They forgot to mention that his wife and he separated in 2018, keeping it secret for years. It was revealed after his death.
Not that I think there's anything bad about being separated/divorced, but it'd be a lie to paint him as a family man.
I guess his criminal record for drunk driving also doesn't fit the narrative.
Someone else also pointed out there is exactly one photo being passed around of Brian Thompson. You would think they would find more family oriented photos to push the narrative
Omg💀 That’s a great point
Meanwhile there’s at least one new ridiculously photogenic pic of luigi coming out every day
Like this one?
This example shows how media is your enemy...
They spin the facta for the owner class, every single time
And it works too. Well until this dead piece of shit... Something changed hopefully
Your point is valid, but I wouldn't really place this guy in "the media." He's CFO of some investment firm. Just another C-suite executive trying to calm the rowdy peasants from atop his gilded throne, hoping to keep his head on his shoulders.
You are correct, that's a fair nuance to point out.
I guess shilling for the owner class ain't just a media job. They all do it esp if they think they are part of the club.
They also made sure to mention that his kids go to public schools. And they've never missed a meal or any health care or been cold or hungry or anything. What difference?
Luigi went to elite private schools all his life bro...
DUHH, why are these peasants siding with the elite?!
That's an interesting date considering we learned about the drunk driving arrest in 2017 recently. Seems like she probably went through a tough time before she finally was able to get a separation.
I'd urge you to reconsider this. Seperating from your partner does not invalidate you from being a 'family man' or a good parent. My parents divorced when I was a young age, and both of them remain committed to being attentive and involved parents (and grandparents).
Lucky her... she didn't have to suffer this man for 6 years AND she gets fucking Hella paid. I bet she is partying every fuckin day
