        I’d imagine that some people, when given a choice between a service that shares your data with the Chinese government versus one that shares your data with the US government, well, the Chinese government can’t arrest you for bullshit reasons on US soil. The US government can.

        Bro they’ve been making thirst traps of Luigi on Douyin and XHS since his mugshots came out. You can literally Google “Luigi Mangione Douyin” and see all the results. Get out of your bubble.

          Because western news is filtered, and he would not be branded a hero for fear he would inspire the Chinese people to rise against their fascist dictators in a similar fashion.
