To be clear, I'm not condemning Luigi, but they do this all the god damn time.

It helps to remember the guardian is only comparatively left-wing, and when convenient.

When not, they distract from the point like the others.

That is exactly my point. Kyle Rittenhouse cashed in on the media sympathy given to him. If Mangione wasn't a pretty white man, he wouldn't be treated like this by the media. He's in this strange area where the drive for clicks is conflicting with the elites' personal safety. It's fun to watch. Lol
