I assumed this was sarcasm. But it’s possible someone was living in a cave for the past several days. 🤷

So he killed a CEO, and the internet loves it, cuz eating dead meat it more accepted than eating living meat?

to explain better, the guy who got killed was the CEO of UnitedHealthcare (UHC). UHC is the US health insurance company that falsely denies claims the most, meaning a whole bunch of people died because the company didn't cover what it should have.

so (very) basically, ceo of the company that kills the most people in the us got killed and people are happy about it, since the killing means that all insurance companies are gonna be really scared to deny any claims from now on. and that means a lot of people who would have died, now won't
