Two migrant teens, Alan Magalles Bello and Yeremi Colino were confronted by 3 people in Lower Manhattan and stabbed. Colino has died.

As for CNN, they and other news outlets also had the full Luigi Mangione manifesto (more of a note) for days but wouldn't release it, and instead made intentionally false statements about the contents.

This is what he actually wrote and doesn't come across as "unhinged" (despite the cringe opening):

As for Luigi Mangione:

It's no good judging him on his background or his social media alone. His twitter wasn't updated for months, and such as Goodreads shows a somewhat different side, more relevant to recent events - though there are hints of it on twitter. And something has clearly changed radically recently. Conservatives or alt-right people (or whatever label some have been trying to fix on him) do not normally refer to corporate executives as "parasites" who "simply had it coming" and then go out and kill one of them.

It seems like he has been trying to find his way... and it's led him to target a key figure among the many responsible for the suffering, and too often deaths, of millions of people over many decades through insurance and other healthcare profiteering. He didn't take out his personal problems and his ideologicial issues on random strangers or random employees like many have in the past. He took out one of those most responsible. Indeed it's just been revealed that he considered using a bomb to kill Brian Thompson but decided against it because he did not want to harm anyone else.

As for his being born into a wealthy Republican family, so what?

Countless socialists, communists, anarchists and others more difficult to label - famous, infamous or little known - have come from a privileged background. For a start Karl Marx was the son of a wealthy lawyer and married a member of the aristocracy. He lived in poverty for most of his life however. Engels was the son of a wealthy industrialist. Mao's father was a wealthy farmer and landowner. I'm not comparing Luigi with them too deeply of course but this needs to be considered.

Don't throw him or anybody like him under the bus when they do a neccessary thing for the right reasons, and are possibly rising above some of their older ideas, just because of those said ideas or beliefs. We don't know what his current state of mind is on any issue beyond the healthcare one.

It has been suggested that there may be some connection with possibly using psilocybin (magic mushrooms). Some people have been making that point to discredit his actions when actually such may have made him more empathetic and hence more enraged by the suffering of others. And his interest in such drugs was because of his chronic pain problems.

As a side note, apparently 2/3rds of Penn students support his actions. It's not really that surprising considering that the so-called health care system can be a nightmare for anyone but the very richest.

Coloro che sostengono che leggere sia la cura di tutti i mali dovrebbero osservare meglio la realtà che li circonda.

Mai come in questo secolo lo studio è alla portata di tutti, c'è una tale mole di informazioni e di fonti culturali in giro che bisogna usare il colino per poterle almeno valutare in superficie.

Eppure mai come in questa società ci sono problemi di analfabetismo, linguaggio e professionalità.

Ciò perché il problema non è la capacità culturale, ma l'incapacità di discernere tutto ciò a cui si dà attenzione, fiducia e condivisione.

E il discernimento, come il buonsenso e come lo Spirito, non te lo insegna nessuno.

Who is this child born without pain but bearer of a pain that we cannot help but suffer, in whom we cannot help but recognize ourselves, whom our narcissism nurtures, who, at first feeding on our need, begins to devour us? And who is named at one time Oedipus, at another Heathcliff, and at another Nicolo alias Colino? A stiff, black, withdrawn, silent savage, all the more loved in that he turns upon love with an appalling look.

Sembra che l'equipaggio dello yacht Bayesian...

... abbia imparato nella maniera più tragica i limiti dell'inferenza bayesiana. Ovvero che, per quante volte sei arrivato in porto senza problemi, è solo molto probabile che lo farai anche oggi: non c'è nessuna garanzia che la prossima volta le tue probabilità di sopravvivenza non colino a picco...

Migrant teen stabbed to death in NYC by group of men who asked if he spoke English

New York City Police Department says officers responded to a 911 call for an assault in Lower Manhattan around 7:30 p.m on Thursday. Upon arrival, police found a 17-year-old with a stab wound to the chest. The other man, an 18-year-old, was stabbed in the left arm with a screwdriver. Emergency responders transported both individuals to NYC Health and Hospitals / Bellevue. The 17-year-old, identified as Yeremi Colino, died from his injuries. The 18-year-old is in stable condition. No arrests have been made and the investigation is ongoing, a spokesperson for the NYPD told The Independent. Investigators managed to recover a knife from the scene. Both teens had been living in Manhattan hotels, according to ABC 7. Before the attack, investigators said a suspect asked the teens if they spoke English. They were stabbed after they replied “No”. Mayor Eric Adams told the outlet the incident could be classified as a hate crime if it’s determined the men were stabbed for not speaking English.

Ricordiamoci che la cultura alla fine è ciò che rimane quando abbiamo dimenticato tutte le nozioni, quando abbiamo scordato i libri che abbiamo letto, i film che abbiamo visto, la musica che abbiamo ascoltato. Siamo come i cercatori d’oro che setacciano la melma: l’unica cosa che conta per un cercatore è il pulviscolo che rimane fra le maglie strette del colino.

Se esistono gli angeli,

probabilmente non leggono

i nostri romanzi

sulle speranze deluse.

E neppure – temo –

le nostre poesie

risentite con il mondo.

Gli strilli e gli strazi

delle nostre pièces teatrali

devono – sospetto –

spazientirli.

Liberi da occupazioni

angeliche, cioè non umane,

guardano piuttosto

le nostre commediole

dell’epoca del cinema muto.

Ai lamentatori funebri,

a chi si strappa le vesti

e a chi digrigna i denti

preferiscono – suppongo –

quel poveraccio

che afferra per la parrucca uno che annega

o affamato divora

i propri lacci.

Dalla cintola in su le ambizioni e lo sparato,

e sotto, nella gamba dei pantaloni,

un topo impaurito.

Oh, questo sì

deve divertirli parecchio.

L’inseguimento in circolo

si trasforma in una fuga davanti al fuggitivo.

La luce nel tunnel

si rivela l’occhio d’una tigre.

Cento catastrofi

sono cento divertenti capriole

su cento abissi.

Se esistono gli angeli,

dovrebbe convincerli

– spero –

questa allegria sull’altalena dell’orrore,

che non grida neppure aiuto, aiuto,

perché tutto avviene in silenzio.

Oso supporre

che applaudano con le ali

e che dai loro occhi colino lacrime

almeno di riso
