A new one to add to my 2020s-US-american-working-class-heros-smashabless-tierlist.

All of them were inspired by a shit system and not by another man, who was also fed up with it

Do what you gotta do. By any means necessary. We live in a slave culture marketed as freedom.

Being a good or hard working person doesn't get any reward.

America Makes the Terrorists and then complains.

I heard about the fire, but I thought it was just a fire. I had no idea it was a brother in arms fighting against capitalism and wage theft. Good on him.

And still not one goddamn Epstein Rapist has been arrested.

But we're gonna throw federal and state charges at a guy for fighting back?

This country is fucking ridiculous.

I'd say he's more of a Milton. Still understandable, though.

Source: LA times reporting "Videos posted online appear to show a man igniting a fire at an Ontario warehouse while complaining about being paid low wages."

At least he received a paycheck.

Edit: I was referencing office space like the guy above me people chill.

🥵

He posted a video of himself lighting various pallets of toilet paper in the factory, and saying "All you had to do was pay us a livable wage".

This youtube explains and contains much of the footage:

P.S Someone threw a Molotov at Sam Altman's house.

Fuck you! I very personally hope that you get the opportunity to experience both food and housing insecurity despite working full-time hours or more. You need some perspective.

Is his name fucking Mario Mangione? Wtf? They could be brothers

Nice try, mass media. Luigi is always innocent.

What does Milton mean in this context?

Steven Root's character in Office Space, who ends up burning down his office building because of nonpayment and abuse.

At least the slaves received free food and housing. /s (just in fucking case)

He is innocent just like Lugi. He was in Oklahoma at the time. Let me know where to donate to his legal defense. If fucking murders can get millions in go fund me so should this class hero.

Just so you're warned: The below link contains spoilers, and the entire movie is worth a watch.

Confirming what AchoriteMagnus said. This guy is Milton, from the movie Office Space.

And still not one goddamn Epstein rapist has been arrested.

At least not in the States.

Fuck that guy. Luigi had no victims. Forming unions take work, but picket lines don't destroy businesses.

I'd be pissed if some salty coworker set fire to where I worked and put MY ass out on the street.

Idk the story but sounds like you were already on the street if you were working there

That.. Checks out

We have... a WALUIGI!

It's the greatest anti-corporate work movie ever made. If I'm a professor, this is kindergarten.

The fireplace was about the size of 16 soccer fields. Amazing.

If you ask me, interior design has gone too far..

Brazilians will use anything but imperial...

I'm a gonna win.

I was referencing office space. But people didn't get the reference apparently

At least you got my reference to the character Milton that the guy was talking about /s (just in fucking case)

How many hamburgers is that?

If we take average diameter of 1 burger to be about 4 inches or 10 cm, then we can fit about 11 million burgers there in 1 layer.

Maybe I'm heartless, but why give millions of working class dollars to a bunch of lawyers in what will almost certainly be a slam-dunk loss? It's not like the carceral system will stop enslaving and torturing him if we pay them enough.

If you want him to be rewarded, give the money to his family, to his friends, and to the workers whose lives were disrupted because of this.

weird, I didn't see anything. you?

He was with me the whole time

I can provide other witnesses to corroborate his alibi

I agree with the lawyer part. But having a successful fundraiser can show other people and the rich class that he has our support.

The average football pitch is not too far off from 50x100m which is half a hectare.

Oh how I'm not looking forward to seeing the right make this into a "the left" issue and then a race issue.

Warehouse Luigi, or Waluigi for short.

The sentiment is right, the channeling of the anger is wrong

Nope

A proper old school union both destroyed businesses that deserved to be destroyed and the ownership that operated said business. That's not insane revolutionary speak, that is real working class history.

What?
He's an Airaab FFS! Clearly it's antisematizaam!
It's not left-right, us poor zionists are the victim here again.

He should've voter harder next time

Just a warm day that's all

My condolences.

Let me just pull up my soccer-to-football calculator...

The history of unions is one of war.
