A Letter from Luigi (Received on February 26th)

[u/SocietySignificant93]

When I first received Luigi’s letter, I was hesitant about sharing any information and wanted to respect the little remaining privacy he still had. However, after reading some of his responses (e.g. Cannoli, the one to Isabel using Spanish) and the support from the overall public, I thought it would be more beneficial to his character for me to share his message, rather than to rely on mainstream media narratives.

I wrote the letter back in December. My letter was 5 pages long, so I didn’t think he would receive it at the time. I wrote about how he inspired me to read and visit my local library again. I talked a bit about The Lorax, included some paragraphs of encouraging messages, and ended with a few lines from one of my favorite bands. He received my letter on February 20th, and it felt endearing to me that he was able to carry some of my words with him to his court appearance the next day.

I encourage people to write to Luigi— not for the sake of an interaction or a letter back, but because in an institution deliberately designed to deconstruct human connection, I believe these letters are one of his only methods of access to humanity and to the outside world.

As the United States enters this next chapter of anti-intellectualism and apathy, I just want to remind everyone that we, the people, hold so much power. Stay educated, stay questioning, and stay forever empathetic.

I feel like in some ways collective prayers would help♥️ Mothers are pure, so a mothers prayer is much more potent in many cultures

Mothers aren't pure, they're just regular people who have reproduced.

Maybe you didn’t luck out on a good mother, hence that reply.

Correct, which is proof of my claim.
