    Does the meme not imply that Luigi should be the next Presidential candidate? Is that not glorifying Luigi?

      No.

      The meme is pointing out that the non-violent solution didn’t work. The “common cultural knowledge” that makes it humourus is that a wealthy guy with 37+ felony convictions and no interest in the common people. Luigi killed one dude that had it coming.

      It’s not glorifying a thing. It’s the common millennial Gallows Humor.
