According to reporting by Joe Marino, Ben Kochman and Matt Troutman last week, health insurance leaders pressured the DOJ to make an example of Luigi Mangione by bringing federal charges against him in a surprise announcement that caught his lawyers
“Those who make peaceful revolution impossible, make violent revolution inevitable.”
It wasnt Czolgosz or Mangione that sat at the reigns of a murder machine sanctioned by baron-owned-state monopoly of violence.
Goldman, for her part, had such a big heart for those driven to desperate acts.
Throughout her detention and after her release, Goldman steadfastly refused to condemn Czolgosz’s actions, standing virtually alone in doing so. Friends and supporters—including Berkman—urged her to quit his cause. But Goldman defended Czolgosz as a “supersensitive being” and chastised other anarchists for abandoning him.[75] She was vilified in the press as the “high priestess of anarchy”,[76] while many newspapers declared the anarchist movement responsible for the murder.[77] In the wake of these events, socialism gained support over anarchism among US radicals. McKinley’s successor, Theodore Roosevelt, declared his intent to crack down “not only against anarchists, but against all active and passive sympathizers with anarchists”.[78]
This reminds me of a neat history lesson:

Berkman wasnt shit. Emma was a real one
