Disagree. This is someone with some training who lost a family member to the denial of healthcare. Losing money doesn’t produce murderous rage. Losing family does.

The LOL part is that narrows down the suspect list to millions

That's a possibility but it's not a very interesting story. I like the idea of an anti-capitalist activist performing the first act of the end of late stage capitalism.

Losing money absolutely does provoke murderous rage, in some people. That's how we wound up living in a reality with billionaires to begin with.

If they’re an investor they already have money. Why ruin a good life? This was the act of someone with nothing to lose.
