No, there was a lot more that came of this (unless you’re specifically referencing the snitching part).
It’s made business execs afraid.
It’s shown the working class how to have solidarity.
It’s been a rallying cry for how much the people hare the current system.
It’s given us a martyr.
It’s taught the would be school shooters that they’ll get lots of positive attention for redirecting their targets towards those deserving. They’ll get labeled a folk hero, they’ll have people trying to send them money for their legal defense fund, they’ll get their name in the history books. They’ll get everything they ever wanted out of their act of violence.

I never even thought of that. No more Columbines? Just more Luigis?
I wouldn’t go so far to say that there won’t be any more school shootings. A school shootings is comparatively easy. Their locations are static, publicly available. There are many potential victims, and so on.
With that said, some may opt for the slightly higher difficulty of biz execs for the reasons I’ve listed.
I can’t speak for all of them, but I can explain the vibes:
TikTok/Insta - 100% worshipping Luigi en masse
Discord - None of the ones I’m in, though I mostly stick to small friend groups I know IRL. I’d be shocked if there aren’t servers praising him as a hero
It definitely seems to be yeah, given the number of reposted tiktoks I’ve seen, and the facebook unitedhealthgroup laughing emoji ratio, and all the videos that corporate media are clutching their pearls over. There are tons of comments in Ben Shapiro’s videos on the subject that are cheering on the death of a CEO, despite his attempt to paint this as only the “violent left”. When Ben Shapiro’s viewers disagree with him you know the feeling is widespread lol.

And I’m sure there’s more.
Maybe the “let me fuck shit up and shoot up my high-school” crowd doesn’t really care about being remembered as heroes but what would I know.
Some of them don’t care about being remembered or how they’re remembered.
But some of them very much do:

or if you conceal your murder(s) with a thin veil of legality!
I’m not a big Astarion fan, but I can see the appeal.
Interesting work of fiction.
He’s not wrong that people don’t mind murder if it’s the right people, though.
It might even unify some voters across party lines
Is his martydom trending on “common” social media like TikTok, YT, Facebook, Discord, big podcasts and such?
Lemmy (and even Twitter and Reddit) are rather niche and not necessarily reaching the larger public, aka this pool of working class folk.
I can’t speak for all of them, but I can explain the vibes:
I can’t speak to the rest.
One of the Hoi4 mod servers im on is actively debating making an agent portrait of him. The debate is about historical accuracy not morality.
Lmao

Very interesting.
And some of the “small” news outlets in my feed are starting to sympathetically acknowledge it as well.
I think that user above you was implying more should be done about the McDonalds, which is pretty ironic given the context.
