You mean you weren't familiarised with the Luigi Mangione story?
hi OP! I love that you wrote these instructions, they are going to help a lot of new users!
however, a significant number of people, including artists such as myself, wouldn't feel comfortable about the use of AI art on this post :(
I'd be willing to replace this same image with original art for free if you'd like! as a small way to contribute to this community. would you be insterested in that? maybe my original take on the image you used for this post or something else that you prefer.
feel free to DM me if you're interested โ๐ป
I (username @quarklover123) had no idea there was a community named c/quarks lol

What do you guys recommend for French news? I'm not French but I am learning the language, and reading news might be a way to practice it.
Well, someone murdered the United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson and it is alleged that this guy named Luigi Mangione did it. The media went into a frenzy trying to make us hate Luigi, but since most Americans experience what is like to live under a system that treats healthcare as a way to make profits, nobody did. They even tried framing this as a left x right issue instead of a class issue but even many people on the right didn't think Luigi did anything wrong. Luigi is also a conventionally attractive dude, so it's hard for the media to play with people's preexisting prejudices. After many attempts, they seem to have decided the best approach to this was to suppress all speech on the matter. They are trying to frame this murder as an act of terrorrism and seem to be very scared of the public response to this. Reddit is trying to ban any mention to Luigi (even Nintendo related ones), and also has banned many people who did as little as upvote a comment related to him.
Kind of a lot ๐
