Yeah, the media is not suppressing some working class hero story here. It's just a man who lost his marbles.
I mean, this is still pretty Luigi. A man striking out an evil corporation violently. I wouldn't put the NFL's crimes at the same level as UHC's. But they still churn through and destroy people like the shooter. It's ultimately the same form of anti-corporate vigilantism.
Luigi singled out one incredibly evil man and dealt with him. This guy shot one random CEO seemingly by accident, as well as some random people.
Kill five random people in the NYC financial district and chances are at least a couple will be deplorable. That doesn't make you a vigilante.
One was an assassination, the other was a mass shooting.
