The contest was real? That’s hilarious
Apparently. NYT source (no paywall)
What a beautiful article, filled with gems of quotes.
In a report this week, the institute found that of the top 10 most-engaged posts on X about the shooting on Wednesday, six “either expressed explicit or implicit support for the killing or denigrated the victim.” The dynamic is similar to the discourse that often emerges after a mass shooting on websites like 4chan and 8chan, where perpetrators of extreme violence become memes themselves, Mr. Goldenberg said, “but what’s disturbing about this is it’s mainstream.”
“It’s being framed as some opening blow in a broader class war, which is very concerning as it heightens the threat environment for similar actors to engage in similar acts of violence,” Mr. Goldenberg said.
They are trying soo hard to twist this away from what everyone knows it is and they are failing miserably.
Mr. Goldenberg said, “but what’s disturbing about this is it’s mainstream.”
It’s even more disturbing that necessary medical care being denied by insurers is mainstream, as it has been for decades.
From the MSN article
The wannabe doppelganger noted that he didn’t have to particularly dress up for the event, saying “I wear this everywhere.”
His killer looks landed him $50.
The champ said he’s had his own issues with health insurance companies covering some of his medications, although he admitted he is not a UnitedHealthcare customer.
Killer looks guys
Most ridiculous twist ever: this is the actual dude hiding in plain sight.
If the opening blows of a broader class war are very concerning to you, I guess you’re on the wrong side.
I love it when people find ways to have fun in the darkest of plots.
The horrors persist, yet we remain silly.
Silly all the way 💯
Nah, this plot (the assassination) was actually a bit of light in the darkness.
I bet the assassin did have fun. He’s clearly the protagonist
It’s a shame that Halloween is already behind us.
The real shooter participate in it and finished in third place.
people should start going out wearing the same thing the shooter was wearing during the assassination. it would be funny
They should also hang around on wall street and outside Fortune 500 company headquarters
I genuinely thought he’d have been caught by now. This is wild.
I genuinely thought the NYPD would have just grabbed a homeless guy and dressed him up before forcing a confession by now.
One would hope the cops take their sweet ass time doing their job this time, considering they might actually have someone that bought the insurance or get their insurance claim denied.
Don’t fucking Jinx it
Is this now the real-life “V” Guy Fawkes mask equivalent?
I’m down. This was always more my style. Less pageantry.

Obviously Ezio Auditore Da Firenza
“Different CEO” unfortunately.
Hope the prize covers his deductible.
Would be a perfect place to hide
It reminds me of that bank robbery that had wanted ads in the newspaper. It was to dress a certain way and be at the bank at a specific time. That’s when they robbed the bank dressed up how everyone else was. I can’t find the story but I think it was somewhere in the EU , maybe France.
The guy got got because he went in the day before and a homeless guy outside recognized him
I wonder…
It’s him!
Clearly that is Garrett
