That is what Luigi Mangione accused someone–law enforcement, I take it–of doing, as he yelled to reporters while police officers escorted him into a Pennsylvania courthouse:

Mangione shouts, “This is extremely unjust and an insult to the intelligence of the American people, and lived experience.”

Unjust that he has been arrested for a murder that he obviously committed? Expecting justice to be done insults the intelligence of Americans, or maybe just liberal Americans? And punishing him for murder is somehow inconsistent with his (or maybe our) “lived experience”? (Not to quibble or anything, but how do you get experience other than by living?)

Mangione’s spouting of cliches is consistent with the fact that he is both delusional, if not clinically insane, while at the same time representative, in his thinking, of a considerable slice of the American public. His inarticulate reference to “lived experience” is relevant in one way, however–his life is about to take a sharp downward turn, and he will experience things that, which his pampered history, he likely cannot imagine.
