See, the problem here is that Eric Adams is a cop. And cops lie.

But luckily, cops are very simple creatures, and we can easily work out his motives.

He thought he saw some clout and decided to give chase.

Sort of, the rich are scared and the only way Eric Adams gets to keep his job is by keeping the rich happy. That perp walk was about getting those shots on the media, so the rich feel safe again.

The fact they think this pageantry means he can keep them safe is… actually, let them think that. I am more than okay with it.

u/PermiePagan 4d ago

Yup, let them have their little pony show. It only serves to drive more people to our side. The game is up, this is clearly a Plutocracy.

If there is a, let's call it, a paradigm shift amongst the 1% by the 99% (or even Adjuster MK2) it's nice that we have these videos of which side of the line Eric Adams likes to walk... but I'm sure that nothing will happen in a country so resistant to revolutions, rebellions and civil wars as America.

He's also a politician, and they lie the most.

100% of the things this dipshit does in his life is strictly performative. There is never any substance, and he has no interest in laws or actual governing.

u/limocrasher 4d ago

If you watch the video (I DO NOT RECOMMEND IT) there's a cop who sees the woman on fire, and waves his hand at her as if to say "I have no time for this bs". As the guy who lit her on fire was literally fanning the flames. Absolute monster.

You can't start the fire AND immediately put it out 🤯

Someone should look him in the eye and tell him he's not welcome there

u/Motor_Classic9651 4d ago

Fuck this dude - scared for CEOs - how about all of YOUR FUCKING CONSTITUENTS THAT ARE BEING DENIED CARE FOR PROFIT???

u/KellyBelly916 4d ago

He works for people who pay him voluntarily, not the taxed slaves.

47

u/ArguesWithFrogs 4d ago

Cause he's a bitch trying to distract from his own shitty behavior.

32

u/putrid-popped-papule 4d ago

Oh it traumatized the employees, so he wants to lead from the front? Cool, cool. What a jackass.

34

u/mistakenforstranger5 4d ago

Laughable that these ghouls want to claim it's terrorism to kill a CEO. But of course, for them, it is.

26

u/Virtual-Law-2644 4d ago

Coming from the guy who was indicted on bribery 🤦‍♂️

u/Sauerkrautkid7 4d ago

"Well, you see, I am a GIGANTIC piece of shit, and I didn't want anyone to think I wasn't, so I had to be there"

u/1-2-3-5-8-13 4d ago

Zero employees were scared.

u/Wooden-Valuable7881 4d ago

I'd hate to be in the front row and smelling all that bullshit dribbling out of his mouth

u/Dadfish55 4d ago

Man needs the practice for his own

u/Heisenburg42 4d ago

"Traumatized the CEOs" ffs. Since when do they care about other people's trauma?

6

u/AcidFnTonic 4d ago

Shame on him

5

u/ttystikk 4d ago

What a clown. Not only was the public perp walk a violation of Luigi's right to be treated as innocent until PROVEN guilty, but that was a two bit politician's response to take credit wherever he can.

u/MaybePotatoes 4d ago

The IBM CEO? The CEO of the same IBM that created the punch card systems that aided in the Holocaust and Internment of Japanese Americans?

u/allmyguts 4d ago

Innocent until proven guilty..

u/NoFounder36 4d ago

u/coronaangelin 4d ago

Eric Adams is a cop masquerading as a mayor.

u/GunslingerOutForHire 3d ago

He was an actual cop. So habits really don't change.

u/romulusnr 4d ago

Practice for his own?

u/NationYell 4d ago

It's all about the optics.

u/xaristotlex1 4d ago

Practicing for his own...

u/Bodgerpoo 4d ago

"You carried out this terrorist act" What happened to the presumption of innocence until proven guilty? I doubt that Luigi will get a fair trial...

u/Lostinaredzone 4d ago

Cuz he’s a little bitch?

2

u/daftbucket 4d ago

Because he's an integral part of a broken, corrupt system. That's why.

Alternately: "I wanted to jerk myself off in front of the cameras to reinforce my support for my rich constituents and donors. In a situation which was 100% safe and where my target was fully restrained and surrounded by armed men, I took the opportunity to flex like a massive bitch."

u/finalarchie 4d ago

He didn't want to be left out of the photo op with all the other criminals

1

u/PerceptionSimilar213 4d ago

It's not his job to send a message, it was not at all a terrorist act, and what he is saying is that he values the feelings of CEOs because he was at a meeting with them.

u/Veroonzebeach 4d ago

Oh noooooes, the CEOs were twaumatized.

u/WillieBeamin 4d ago

Swagger.
