It’s a weird headline, but the discussion is around how journalists and the public look through internet history in cases like this. Some of it is helpful, some of it is not.
In particular, it’s a response to this article:
The game in this case being AmongUs…
Monday night, NBC News published an article with the headline “’Extremely Ironic’: Suspect in UnitedHealthcare CEO Slaying Played Video Game Killer, Friend Recalls.” This article is currently all over every single one of my social media feeds, because it is emblematic of the type of research I described above. It is a very bad article whose main reason for existing is the fact that it contains a morsel of “new” “information,” except the “information” in this case is that Luigi Mangione played the video game Among Us at some point in college.

Did you know every murderer has been human? Which is why people being afraid of aliens doesn’t make any sense. Aliens have never killed anyone, but humans have killed a lot of people.
That’s what you think
That’s what they want you to think.
There are plenty of animals that have killed in cold blood. Some animals are evil assholes.
There was even a pig that got convicted in, like, 1700s France or something.
