People hated Elliot Rodger 'cause he was ugly but praise Luigi Mangione 'cause he's hot

[paredler]

When an incel revenges society for its wrong doings, he's a weirdo who deserves to go to prison and rot to death. When a hot guy murders someone, he's a hero who deserves an award.

I get that Elliot Rodger murdered innocent people and Mangione killed a true criminal, but trust me, it's waaaayyyy more about their looks than the nature of the murder. I believe that if Mangione was ugly, he wouldn't have gotten so much praise from society. It's not the first time that a good looking criminal gets forgiven for his crimes. Cameron Herrin, Jeremy Meeks etc. American society is bullshit. People are bullshit.

 

[Ethel]

You do know that Elliot Rodger is considered attractive and hot by the majority of people right?

 

[ijustwishtodie]

I don't think it's all about looks although I could be wrong. I think that it really does boil down to how mangione murdered somebody who is rich and is in power whereas rodger murdered innocent people. Society hates those in power and secretly wants them dead but they don't ever say this publicly because of the (very understandable) fear of the repercussions that they could get for saying this. When the oceangate incident happened that caused a few rich people to die, people were celebrating at how they died instead of mourning at how they died.

I think that it really just boils down to "murdering innocent people = bad" and "murdering those in power = good"

Good looking people who kill innocent people get forgiven as well.

If that were true, people would have been less harsh on him.

Its called "We live in a society"

 

[Dr Iron Arc]

By definition, Luigi Mangione is an incel too, if we are to believe his former landlord that is.

Luigi Mangione’s back pain was so intense that he couldn’t be ‘physically intimate’ with anyone, former landlord says

UnitedHealthcare CEO murder suspect Luigi Mangione was suffering terrible back pain to the point where it was not possible for him to date or be “physically intimate” with anyone, his former landlo…

Technically he's just your average incel shooter then. Only difference is this time he killed someone people actually hate. Maybe the Trump shooter would have gotten the same treatment if he had actually been successful.

Incels have got a complete wrongheaded view of the world. It's a fucked ideology and ER killed innocent people over it. That's evil.

Mangione killed a culpable person who was part of and benefitted from a legitimately evil societal issue.

They're not comparable.

This is a total misrepresentation of the situation. Elliot Rodger was an entitled manchild who murdered innocent people in cold blood because he thought the world (and more specifically, women) owed him something. Luigi Mangione was a young man whose life was ruined by an expensive and invasive medical procedure and he murdered the CEO of an insurance company that routinely denies people medical treatment and/or buries them in medical debt. Saying that the only difference between the two is physical attractiveness is obviously untrue.

 

[RiverOfLife]

There were a lot of people cheering on Mangione before the unmasked photo was released. And Eliot Rodgers was pretty good looking.
You have a point that attractive people do have a privilege in society, but your examples do not support your argument.

 

[soledad.virgen]

ive seen plenty of girls call Elliot hot, it seems like he was just an extremely unpleasant person tbh

 

[Mirrory Me]

I don't know if you should be jealous of a murderer for his media sexiness, although he could get more sex in prison afterward...

It's your comment that is a total misrepresentation of the situation. Elliot Rodger was a lonely boy who was bullied and made fun of by other boys and girls and never had the chance of having intimacy with another woman. Feeling rejected and unloved by society, he decided to revenge. He should have revenged against the very people who taunted him but a problem in planning and thinking this through made him murder innocent people.

Other good looking men get also forgiven for their wrongdoings. Cameron Herrin and Jeremy Meeks for example. They're pretty evil but no one ever dares to mention them.

 

[Forever Sleep]

Hmm, not sure. Ted Bundy was terrifying because he could act so charming and was (debatably) good looking. I feel fairly equal hatred towards serial killers/ rapists. I just think the better looking ones are likely even more dangerous.

 

[coolgal82]

people liked him before they knew what he looked like, also they committed very different acts. completely incomparable and youre being really weird trying to justify elliot rogers ngl

 

[vanibless]

Their motives are so different that idk if you can compare them but true that people care about looks and if Luigi was an ugly fattie then I think people wouldn't talk about him so much and even make edits of him like they do rn

 

[coolgal82]

no they definitely would. even if he wasnt attractive theyd still be like "omg based"

 

[vanibless]

no they definitely would. even if he wasnt attractive theyd still be like "omg based"

Yeah they would still excuse him from the moral standpoint but I still think the attetion would be lower. It's mostly women who are like oh my gooddd free my man he's so handsome so it just proves my point lol

 

[Apathy79]

I would be extremely wary of anyone that praises either. They're not people you want to be around. I assume it's such an extreme minority in either case that they're irrelevant.

 

[coolgal82]

again though people were like that before they even saw him

I would be extremely wary of anyone that praises either. They're not people you want to be around. I assume it's such an extreme minority in either case that they're irrelevant.

also nah its a large amount of people that praise luigi are you blind? so many people ive seen support him to atleast some degree, this is actually one of the things ive seen the left and right unite on. like that one screenshot of a ben shapiro video like "the evil woke left are supporting murder" and the comments are full of "its not just the left ben" and shitting on him from right wingers lmao

 

[Apathy79]

Like just about everything else in comments sections, 1% of people make up 99% of the comments. Real people don't support these murderous psychopaths. It's just a crazed minority who happen to talk a lot online.

no lmao, even with stuff like this usually you'd see maybe a few people here and there if its not a mainstream opinion but like its everyone online supporting it. even the normies online. again if it wasn t a mainstream thing youd have alot of people even online calling it out as bad but the majority of people support him (including me)

 

[ham and potatoes]

One person killed a bunch of innocent people because he couldn't get laid.
The other killed the CEO of a company that profits off human suffering and death.
Not really sure what you don't get about people romanticizing the 2nd, but not the 1st

 

[DarkRange55]

IMHO as a straight man, I have to be honest and say that I think Liugi is not an attractive man again in my opinion. I think a good example of a handsome man is like Ryan Gosling or George Clooney.

 

[mrpeter]

you don't understand guys its the evil radical left

 

[ScottPilgram]

dawg im not strong enough for this BAIT LMAO

 

[CatLvr]

you don't understand guys its the evil radical left

People keep saying that like the evil conservative right isn't quite ... Well ... Uhmmmm ... "Less than sympathetic" to the "situation" the UHC fella found himself in, also.

Neither of them were good looking imo but anyway people don't like elliott rodger because he was a pathetic little cunt and his deeds represented entitled fury and imvolved the murder of people who had literally done no harm, also incels seeking to prioritise their own ridiculousness above the discussion around healthcare inequality are thick as fuck and imo should be next in line

 

[senti-mental]

If you're gonna rage bait by reducing problems to nothing but attractiveness, pick a better comparison.
