Brian Thompson loved pressure cookers, that's why there are so many placed around his memorial vigil πŸ’•

Inb4 we unironically see these porks march in the streets with β€œrich lives matter” signs.

[–] prole@hexbear.net 44 points 2 months ago

This would actually make for a really funny movie. Someone get Boots Riley

[–] comrade_pibb@hexbear.net 9 points 2 months ago (1 children)

They don't have to march, they just call up their Congress lackeys

Fair enough, but when was the last time you’ve seen a bourgeois pass up the opportunity to go β€œno no, I’M the REAL victim!”

[–] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 42 points 2 months ago

There was a memorial

That balloon that said "CEO DOWN!"

I agree that they should make a memorial wall for Brian Thomson, New york has been due a new gender neutral public bathroom for a while now.

A wall can be a multi purpose installation

how-compelling porky-scared

If I can find a way to adhere color to a urinal I know what's getting installed and where, just not when

It would require that each billionaire sees themself in Brian Thompson, when in reality, they see in each other only another obstacle to their own accumulation

Oh, fuck me. The joke has been here the whole time and I didn't think to make it. Seriously though - this is some Onion shit.

[–] Posadas@hexbear.net 28 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Main stream media finally standing up for societies most oppressed group, the POC (People of Capital)

[–] InevitableSwing@hexbear.net 16 points 2 months ago

Your comment and others in this post gave me a posting idea - It's only a matter of time.

We should definitely hold more vigils for mass murderers. Will help folks identify other mass murderers!

[–] invalidusernamelol@hexbear.net 26 points 2 months ago (1 children)

So go erect one then loser

[–] SexUnderSocialism@hexbear.net 18 points 2 months ago

It would make for a fine gender neutral bathroom.

[–] DaniJam@hexbear.net 26 points 2 months ago

I wanna see them make that memorial wall for that pig just so I can see it get vandalized in real time

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 24 points 2 months ago (1 children)

HATE this old boomer on CNN I forget his name but they run him on Saturdays I think and he has nothing but bad takes. And that's saying something for a CNN talking head.

[–] ThermonuclearEgg@hexbear.net 8 points 2 months ago

Wait, there's any CNN talking heads that aren't just outright reactionaries?

[–] SkingradGuard@hexbear.net 23 points 2 months ago

Unlimited Brian Thompsons on the ruling class

[–] came_apart_at_Kmart@hexbear.net 22 points 2 months ago

I look forward to the memorial where we all acknowledge the disappearance of my foot up this guy's ass.

[–] MF_COOM@hexbear.net 19 points 2 months ago

... and I believe it's because the billionaires, being lizard people, do not have the capacity for emotion that human beings do, and thus have no compulsion to erect memorials as human beings will when they lose one of their own.

[–] LeninsBeard@hexbear.net 14 points 2 months ago

Had to jam some racism around the killing of Laken Riley in there too! Thank you very progressive news network CNN

[–] CrawlMarks@hexbear.net 12 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I'll leave some get well soon balloons there for him. One of those laughing teddy bears. We can make it happen. A copy of the Christmas book

Maybe he should talk to Brian Thompson's family. Or any of the policy holders he affected.
