The Witches of Luigi Mangione

The media has an odd term for the sullen young women who have made a sexual fetish of pretty-boy killer Luigi Mangione.

They’re called Luigi Fangirls.

It evokes a frolic, young women skipping down the street, singing, holding hands. You know, “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun.”

But I much prefer another name, a more direct name:

Witches.

I’m told that witches are supposedly fictional, a phobia created by men, by the patriarchy, to impose our evil will upon women who cling to stories like “The Handmaid’s Tale,” to justify generations of their cruelties upon boys, from wholesale abortion to “gender affirming” castrations of transgenders.

But they began to appear in our lives, as they had appeared in the past, when they publicly poured out their hysterical sexual fantasies and pathetic love for their heartthrob with those Italian eyebrows, the killer Luigi Mangione, the rich boy of privilege who stalked then shot Health Care executive Bryan Thompson in the back.
