We aren't just mad at the insurance industry, we're mad all the cunts making our lives miserable from their high horses of greed

Fake news trying minimize what this is really about.

Regime whores gonna shill but social media sentiment is clear... Fuck executive parasites and their owners. Nobody care if they are denied claim to life on the street.

We see no crime.

I'm mad at the health insurance industry. It's a parasitic middle man in the health industry that does nothing but profiter from the system. Doctors don't like them, patients don't like them, hospitals don't like them. The whole system would be a lot cheaper, simpler and better for health if we got rid of them and had a single payer system. The only reason we haven't done so is because they spend millions to lobby politicians and on ads to convince us it's communism.

People's reaction to a health insurance CEO being assassinated:

"sparks"... the outrage has been there for a long time, festering. The only difference is that now the media thinks it's worth talking about.

They only want the engagement. The media are the same class as this guy.

The revolution won't be televised

I love how the media is acting like this is surprising. People aren't just pissed at healthcare CEOs, either -- they're pissed at a system by and for the rich which apparently has decided to level up despite being against the interests of a vast majority of the population. They're pissed at shareholders mattering more than citizens. This has been a long time coming.

And the media is just surprised Pikachu all over.

Don't forget, we're also mad at you media presenters who enjoy pushing these rich assholes propaganda... You lot have a hand in this all and we have taken notes. You'll be seen to soon.

The insurance companies are just a leach on the entire system. They're proud of the billions of dollars they make in profit, but I see that as straight theft from the medical system overall.

PS: Al Sharpton was not the "rent is too damn high" guy.

I absolutely loved the casual racism of the pundit confusing "the rent is too damn high" guy (Jimmy McMillan), with Al Sharpton.
