i left reddit for good today with their obvious attempt at controlling the narrative like the rest of big social media. long live the lemmy federation
It’s the Luigi overpowered as can be.
Naw, ever see A Bug’s Life where the Crickets only bully the ants because it’s to distract them from realizing a thousand ants are stronger than one cricket?
Yes but in my version it was grasshoppers and not crickets
DAmn, that’s the version where Flick doesn’t have the most amazing tits. He’s still male in mine, he just has great booba, kinda like “TheyCallHimCake”
No, not because of that guy. Because of us. They are afraid of us. They should be.
It is amazing how much fear Luigi has put into the establishment.
Reddit Exodus v43, stay tuned everyone
This was the straw that broke the camel’s back. I remember seeing something a while back on r/coolguides about alternatives for various sites, including Lemmy as an alternative to Reddit. Today, I saw the writing on the wall and decided it was time.
The worst isn’t just the Luigi thing, it’s that in the future, they will most likely expand it to include any topic that the administration disapproves of.
my sentiment exactly. this is just the start of it. once they became a publicly traded company, it was no longer a social media for the people. may free speech live on ✊
welcome! it ain’t perfect here, but at least it’s decentralized and harder to manipulate in favor of the oligarchs.
I am new here, and I actually like everything about it. It’s very simplified. But the fact that it’s decentralized is the key reason to why I moved here.
Butt fuck pastries for elfs!!!
See, that sentence may not make sense, but we have free speech here, so I can say it as much as I want!
BUTT FUCK PASTRIES FOR ELFS!!!
Ooh ooh I wanna try one…
Billionaires should be shot in the street for fun like carnival games. 3 shots for a dollar!
Also, I just anally fucked a pastry for elf’s. Creampied a Danish.
Three shots for a dollar??? There’s going to be more lead than body after we shoot 3 billion+ times!!
Welcome to Lemmy, hope you have a great time.
Reddit has only one consistently-enforced rule: don’t sass the nazis.
Sass the nazis, I say! Sass them to the grave.
Welcome! We are few, but the bones are good.
Welcome!
Fair, I’ve always been aware of Lemmy as a paranoid schizo, but I think that I won’t want the right to use Google before they become a tool of the government to find people who speak out.
Same, the site is no better than facebook or instagram now.
He “allegedly” killed one of them. So they should feel threatened.
I left reddit for good yesterday as well. To hell with their censorship.
SIC SEMPER TYRANNIS
Free Luigi
Yessss.
Was that AI generated? That is fucking sick, my dude. I’m gonna save it
Yeah, another db0 user has posted it in a chat and I snagged. Amazing job on it. I was floored
oh shit my fellow db0 instancers, i’m here too!
Nice!
Here’s the original in higher quality and less cropping: https://i.imgur.com/XzgU9AS.mp4
The watermark in the bottom right corner says KLING AI 1.6
This is so cool! Did you do some kind of reverse image search?
Nah way dumber than that. I had the original Imgur file saved locally from when it was posted a few weeks ago, but I forgot it was from Imgur. I just searched Luigi Mangione and the name of the file and found one hit on Reddit using the URL lol
I sorta prefer the lower quality tbh. It hides some of the big tells that it was AI generated.
noooooo i didn’t realize it was ai 😭😭😭
This is absolutely amazing!! I love it.

Do you have it on any other mirror or site like Imgur that doesn’t block VPNs?
I don’t unfortunately. I also had that issue, and I had to switch my VPN to a random European country so I could even view the original URL to confirm I had the right link before I shared it.
Oh damn! Thank you!
Good use of AI
Yeah, this is one of the few (in relation to the vast amount of slop) where it’s just awesome and I’m happy the tech behind it exists. It’s a great combination of several people’s work (original photo, edited photo, the makers of the AI itself and the person who put it all together), and it’s easily one of the most flawless animated AI things I’ve seen. No uncanny valley like there usually is. And the coolness of Luigi portrayed like that just by itself. Just superb on so many levels!
Any other source for this? It doesn’t load for me…

Unfortunately I don’t know the original creator.
Thank you, that’s great!
Anybody got a wallpaper version of this? LMFAO
They are afraid of copycats, but they had months to try and stop them by just loosening their strangle hold on society. I heard another exec got offed last month in his home in Oregon. it’s starting
Their strategy instead is to announce wars and terrify every 20 minutes so that the news cycle is too full of other crisis to remember this guy.
The thing is, I think our attention spans are too cooked to be overwhelmed like that anymore. A new crisis every 20 minutes? I can get through 40+ tiktok videos in that time, and half of them will be about something they are trying to terrify with (trans rights, science defunding, bird flu, racism, palestine, the oligarchy, luigi, etc.)
The old media can’t keep up, but I’m in my mid-thirties and even my old brain can handle being pulled in dozens of directions and still think about/remember Luigi, unprompted, multiple times a day.
Yeah that’s not going to work when they’re inorganically doing the suppression
What do Reddit’s management and my confidence in my own heterosexuality have in common?
they should… once you take everything away from somoene, they have nothing to lose… they have to be getting close to that on some of the people on the lowest rungs of surviving
Let’s get this guy on some candles!
Well, Trump said that they will push to get the death penalty for drug dealers…
Lock and load, folks.
We’re hunting pharmaceutical CEOs.
