I guess the point is a single act of defiance means nothing to the bulldozer known as the 24 hour news cycle which will bury it faster than any single person can rehash it. Also the reason schools can be shot up and we are talking about a trump tweet by the end of the week.

I doubt anyone has forgotten about Luigi

Maybe some people with dementia or Alzheimer's

They ran the stories, collected public sentiment and reported that, then they stopped because nothing new has happened and the billionaires who own our news didn't like seeing how easy it is for us to find them, and how many of us out there want them dead

More will come as the case progresses

Yeah, there's just nothing new to report, and it's not like Luigi is going to talk to media or anything right now. More will come.

It's not that its not in their memory. It's the fact that moment has passed as if it never happened.

He's been arrested and court date set. There's nothing new to say until then. What else are you expecting? He's not running his mouth 24/7 on social media, that's a good thing.

I mean the internet only ever cares about things for a month

Yep, if you think someone isn't controlling the narrative on the internet either... well.. I can't help.
