I don't think Luigi is the right person for this. Literally could've chosen any image but they chose one loaded with the baggage of being associated with being hugely anti-establishment.
Luigi hasn't done anything anti-establishment.
Except kill a healthcare CEO...? That doesn't count?

Your crusade to exonerate him is not really relevant though. People have been using the image of Luigi as a symbol of fighting back against billionaires, for months now. The choice to use it here is weird, given that they're casting the FBI as that same character.
Baggage, honour,… what’s in a word right?
