Summary
Luigi Mangione, charged with the December 2024 murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, released his first public statement through a new website launched by his defense team.
He expressed gratitude for widespread support and acknowledged the letters he has received. The website provides case updates and a fundraiser, which has raised over $400,000.
Mangione has gained a following among those frustrated with the U.S. healthcare system. A poll found 41% of voters under 30 viewed the assassination as acceptable.
His next court date is Feb. 21.
Did you just multiply 40% and 41% in your head and decide the answer was less than 10%?
Sorry, I know this is barely relevant, but the implied calculus there shook me a bit.
im lazy but statistics is weird like that, you would be taking 40% of 100, and then taking 40% (i think i just used the wrong number lmao) of that block, so like 8 ish was my quick estimate, i was off by about a factor of 2, but that’s still pretty good for schizo statistics that i have no idea the validity of.
My good ser, statistics are not weird like that you’re overcomplicating it in your head. It is .40 times .40, or in other words, 4*4 then move the decimel two spaces over.
yeah and i just didnt do that, idk what you want from me lmao
Lmao
