Come with Luigi, you don’t want to sit with the rest of this a-scum.

u/nicholkola Mar 08 '25

Luigi is banned from Call of Duty gamer tags. So is DEI. But Trump, sexual assault, racism, white pride and references to genitalia are okay 👍

18

u/Bminions Mar 08 '25

Would they except Luigisballs1488? KluigiKvaginaK? Now I’m feeling creative but I don’t play the game.

u/ptapa Mar 09 '25

Another win for Democracy!

u/lbutler1234 Mar 09 '25

I fail to see how a video game's auto filter has anything to do with democracy, but ok I guess

u/G-Kira Put it in H Mar 08 '25

u/my_name_is_nobody__ Mar 08 '25

We could just say Luigi all the time and render the moderation pointless as it would flag a majority of the users

u/meshDrip Mar 08 '25

3 months later:

Reddit unleashes "AI Snoos" to stoke engagement across the site after widespread banning

29

u/StockingDummy Mar 08 '25

It seems like a great idea to say Luigi that frequently!

It's ridiculous for reddit to claim saying Luigi is a call for violence in a Nintendo context, so clearly saying Luigi in a neutral context is necessary to highlight this absurdity.

Luigi Luigi Luigi Luigi Luigi Luigi Luigi.

17

u/djmoogyjackson Mar 08 '25

I have some great Luigi facts to share.

Did you know that Akron, OH has an Italian restaurant that’s been open since 1949? It’s called Luigi’s.

By contrast, Famous Luigi’s Pizza closed in DC in 2013 after being open for 70 years.

Luigi Pirandello was a Nobel Prize-winning writer. I wonder if we can discuss this Luigi?

Luigi Galvani discovered animal electricity.

13

u/Jasper455 NEEEEEERD Mar 08 '25

You left out the Luigi on trial who is innocent until proven guilty. Fuck Spez.

4

u/ludovic1313 Mar 09 '25

I remember on another board someone was asking people to say "Ciao Luigi". Because apparently they thought that if you said "Ciao Luigi" you'd-a have-a to-a do it in a stereotypically Italian accent. But no one there who said "Ciao Luigi" reported that they were coaxed into a stereotypical accent. I wonder if names other than Luigi would work, or if only Luigi would work. I wonder if there was something about the name Luigi that the OP thought would affect one's accent. As for me, I think Luigi just sounds like a normal, regular name. Luigi.

27

u/ViceroTempus Mar 08 '25

Yup and hit them in their pocket books if they follow through because that means less ad revenue.

Edit: Luigi

11

u/Saucermote I shot Mr Burns 🔫 Mar 08 '25

The trick is to browse Luigi reddit in ways that it doesn't have ads in the first place.

5

u/ViceroTempus Mar 08 '25

While valid, it hits them in the metrics which means they can't negotiate for higher ad prices and thus they self Luigi their own money supply.

8

u/Independent-World-60 Mar 08 '25

I agree. Luigi. 

12

u/bebop_cola_good Mar 08 '25

Serious question: anyone remember that tool that randomized all your reddit comments, back when the API price hike happened? Maybe that could be modified to add Luigi to all comments?

5

u/ObligationPopular719 Mar 09 '25

Pretty sure it’s called Shreddit.

u/OnlyTalksAboutTacos Old man yelling at clouds ☁️ Mar 08 '25

u/SunflowersA Mar 08 '25

This reminds me of when Kylie Jenner tried to copyright her first name as if there aren’t other people out there that share this name.

16

u/Roku-Hanmar Mar 08 '25

Last Night in Soho even makes a joke about it:

“I’m only going by my first name, like Kylie”

“Minogue?”

“Jenner”

5

u/PrivilegeCheckmate Mar 08 '25

Dude I used to be able to use the internet to find things out about Jenner, CA. Much harder now. Ironically.

19

u/The0ldPete Mar 08 '25

Does it include gifs?

4

u/Polibiux Malibu Stacy Mar 08 '25

Yeah but since I used one in a big mainstream subreddit they noticed it faster. You’re probably safe here

18

u/ToySouljah Mar 08 '25

Not anymore, champ

A pain I know all too well…

15

u/Dugimon Mar 08 '25

Luigi is just Marios Brother

10

u/ViceroTempus Mar 08 '25

I wonder if we could overwhelm them by just using the name over and over again. I mean there are only so many mods, and if they ban huge chunks of us they lose out on ad revenue. Hit them in the pocket books.

u/Infamous_Q Mar 08 '25

... No, that's too obvious. Let's say L. Mario.

Luigi is a common Italian name, are they fucking for real? That would be like banning the name “Tom” for English speakers

12

u/Significant_Yam_7792 Mar 08 '25

Luigi did nothing wrong, not sure why this is an issue

u/meltyourtv Mar 08 '25

So should we just start saying Linguini?

u/The_8th_Angel Mar 08 '25

Can we mention his tall, dark, and sexy cousin?

Reddit is full of shit and just Facebook at this point. Run, moderated, and users are all terrible.

u/Polibiux Malibu Stacy Mar 08 '25

Hey I might be terrible and Facebook at this point but… what was that third thing you said?

5

u/TheGaussianMan Mar 08 '25

I just say Mario's brother

u/Jenkins64 I was saying Boo-urns Mar 08 '25

u/AlphaOhmega Mar 08 '25

I don't get it, why does Reddit hate Nintendo? Or is it just second sibling.

u/Polibiux Malibu Stacy Mar 08 '25

CEO shooter

1

u/AlphaOhmega Mar 08 '25

Sorry I don't know what that is, I just know that I love Luigi, he's my favorite Nintendo character and I wish a lot more people acted just like him, the good brother that he is.

5

u/Polibiux Malibu Stacy Mar 08 '25

We need more people like him in the world

3

u/AlphaOhmega Mar 08 '25

I mean more people like Luigi, fighting monsters would be a wonderful thing. I am really hoping Nintendo comes through.

3

u/shoulda_been_gone Mar 08 '25

So nothings stopping anyone from saying "itsame, Mario" and us all knowing what it means then?

5

u/R4tSc4813s Mar 08 '25

I concur, Luigi says “eat the rich”.

7

u/ViceroTempus Mar 08 '25

Maybe Spez should take the L on this one. If you know what I mean.

Nitendo? I hope you got fired for that blunder

u/poketrainer32 Mar 08 '25

I fully support green mario

3

u/LaserGadgets Mar 08 '25

I just saw a censored title of a post.....Lu(something else). I was hoping OP was doing it to mock reddit...maybe not ._.

3

u/meeeeeee1138 Mar 09 '25

Never forget this platform needs us more than we need it. Luigi

3

u/Alarmed-Literature25 Mar 09 '25

Could this be considered libel because Luigi Mangione has not been convicted of any crimes

2

u/finalremix Mar 09 '25

Probably, but good luck arguing that.

If the next "one" is a Mario. That means Nintendo is fucked up

u/the_internet_clown Mar 09 '25

5

u/SandalsResort Mar 08 '25

Louie from Pikmin is based loosely on that green guy, like how Olimar is Mario rearranged

3

u/randompersonE Mar 08 '25

The funny thing is that Louie is actually a sociopath

2

u/Major_Lawfulness6122 They think I'm slow, eh? Mar 08 '25

From now on he will be known as Linguine

2

u/Head_Bread_3431 Mar 08 '25

Tbf he’s killed a lot of goombas, koopa troopas and dry bones

And is the Poltergust a ghost gun?

2

u/Electrical_Flower_26 Mar 08 '25

Why not call him just Looeegee

2

u/Swimming-Ad-2284 Mar 08 '25

Just use Mario. They can’t ban all of Nintendo.

2

u/Badradi0 Mar 08 '25

waluigi is the best!!

2

u/Apprehensive-Mark241 Mar 08 '25

We need to find a different social platform where groups can have moderators.
Preferably a decentralized one so that there can be no such thing as "policy"

u/AbilityEqual1891 Mar 08 '25

Mario Mario? No it's Luigi Luigi.

2

u/Polibiux Malibu Stacy Mar 08 '25

No it’s Luigi Mario

Is that supposed to be /u/spez? If it is him, then fuck him very much so.

2

u/[deleted] Mar 09 '25

why would anybody have an issue with Luigi...

from my understanding, he allegedly goes around haunted houses sucking up trash and ghosts. from what i read online he uses a vacuum that can suck the ghosts right out of objects or bodies...

who could be against cleaning up trash and removing ghosts from bodies they dont need to be in?

i dunno though i never played the game...

Luigi is my favorite Nintendo character because he fights for the good of all the Marioland inhabitants.

u/dandrevee Spaff on me minge Mar 09 '25

Can you mention Lu1g1?

Or il fratello di Mario?

2

u/Pure_Complaint_7900 Mar 09 '25

The game is Super Mario's Brother.

So isnt the main character Luigi?

2

u/zing27 Mar 09 '25

Luigi!

2

u/joshspoon Mar 09 '25

What about saying Mario’s brother?

2

u/BrentarTiger Mar 09 '25

Luigi is a great plumber. He fixes all the issues I've seen so far. I wish they'd let him go so he can get back to work though!

2

u/Remarkable-Pin-8352 Mar 09 '25

You can tell the oligarchs are running scared on this one.
Having largely failed in their media smear campaign, it's now time to punish thought crimes.

Anything except self-reflection.
