TAM-C Alert: “Luigi Mangione” Becoming Social Media Slang for Violence Against Executives Over the last several weeks, an escalating trend has been observed in which online users are invoking the name “Luigi Mangione”—the suspect in the 4 December 2024 assassination of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson—as an informal term for killing or assassinating a high-profile target, mostly in reference to senior corporate executives. This shift in language has suggested that Mangione’s notoriety is giving rise to a slang expression that glorifies or trivializes violent acts, with many users employing variations of “Luigi” to imply harm or lethal intent.

?? The case of Luigi Mangione, accused in a high-profile incident involving a healthcare executive, is a stark reminder of the power—and responsibility—of social media. Platforms like TikTok, X, and Reddit have turned this legal case into a cultural flashpoint, sparking viral support, crowdfunding campaigns, and intense public debates. ?? Social media platforms have been used to rally support for Mangione. Some individuals have framed him as a vigilante or a symbol of resistance against corporate greed in the U.S. healthcare system. This has led to the creation of viral content, including hashtags, memes, and songs portraying Mangione as a hero. ?? X, TikTok, and Reddit have also been instrumental in spreading misinformation. Posts that distort the details of the case, either minimizing Mangione's actions or exaggerating the role of corporate entities like UnitedHealthcare, have created echo chambers that deepen polarization. ?? This isn’t just about one man—it’s about how we navigate corporate accountability, justice, and the ethical boundaries of protest in an age where a single post can shape narratives worldwide. ?? How did you find out about his case? #SocialMedia #Polarization #Justice #CorporateAccountability #DigitalCulture #SocialImpact #TrendingNow #AudienceEngagement

Smear campaigns… Here’s the thing… They can happen to anyone, over anything. One day you can be living your life, and you upset the wrong person. Maybe you came forward about something at work. Perhaps, you reported something to HR. You can now be the target of this. I have had people threaten me and smear me because I advocated for vaccines. It really doesn’t take much. If someone, in power, or with a chance of reputational damage, thinks you’re a threat, “We Can Bury Anyone.” The best thing you can do for yourself is wait for the years to go by and hold your head up knowing you’ve done the right things. Character is something that doesn’t change. People who do these things are cowards and afraid of the truth. Also, multiple things can be true at the same time. You can dislike someone, and, they can be a victim. Why can people show evidence and proof, words from an abuser, and still not be believed? #work #workplace #workplacesafety #time https://lnkd.in/gkT_UkrG
