    So they believe that a person should die for killing a CEO, one person, but the CEO who created an AI specifically to deny claims resulting in many painful deaths didn’t? suuuure. this totally isn’t a revealing kneejerk reaction from elites pissing their pants

    Yeah if I were on that jury, it would be jury nullification all the way. Can’t have the government killing a guy for political reasons, and that’s what this is.

      Jury null requires EVERYONE on the jury to agree Not Guilty, there are plenty of sleepwalker who believe the TV narrative about basically everything, Luigi included. Won’t be hard to find at least one

      Edit: jury nullification IS NOT the same thing as a hung jury. The former is final. The latter means a new trial with a new jury.

        I have a family member like that. They’re not religious of any kind, worked with fine electronics in factory, etc. and is by no means stupid. Earlier this year they started ranting about children supporting terrorism and no one understood what was going on. Until they revealed that some kids had written “Stop killing children” with chalk on the sidewalk. All because of TV news with anchors and all that. Not even some far right or conservative channel, just traditional and usually pretty neutral news. But they leave out 90% of what is going on.

            Here’s my best guess on the chain of logic:

            Stop killing children -> Stop killing Palestinian children -> Stop Israel’s war on Palestine -> Not supporting Israel -> Supporting Palestine -> Supporting Hamas -> Supporting Terrorism

            It’s about 15 too many conclusions to jump to but I’ve seen people do it. A lot.
