His wife seemed perfectly happy with the fact he was making millions. His family doesn’t get a pass on this. They all know what they’re doing.

Thanks I’ll keep those in mind. I’m probably gonna end up at dbzero because it’s anarchist and I’m tired of dealing with dumbass liberal apologists and dumbass MLs who glorify authoritarianism so long as it goes with their ideological beliefs.
You haven’t got a fucking clue what you’re talking about. What happened 16 years ago? Obama got elected and brought us a Republican healthcare plan designed by the heritage foundation. Joe Lieberman, a democrat voted against single payer. And if it weren’t him it would of been another democrat spoiler to vote against anything remotely good for the general public. And obamacare is awful, we exist under it currently. Typical to liberalism there was no structural change, it was just a generous handout to insurance companies and a little slap on the wrist that they have to insure everyone. does that mean provide healthcare? NO. it meant rob people with insane premiums and then deny and delay care. 33% of UHC claims got denied. One of their Medicare (dis)advantage plans denied 90% of claims via AI that they knew was faulty.
Fuck these people they deserve death.
We don’t have a democratic republic. We have a house of cards that’s falling fast.
EDIT FOR THE DUMB KOOL AID DRINKING FUCKING LIBERAL CLOWNS WHO VOTE BLUE NO MATTER WHO BECAUSE THEYRE TOO STUPID TO SEE THE SYSTEM IS WORKING EXACTLY AS DESIGNED:
A senator from Connecticut, the insurance capital of the world, became the industry’s go-to guy. Insurers had spent years investing in Sen. Joe Lieberman, a former Democrat-turned-Independent. During the reform debate, the watchdog group Public Campaign Action Fund, (now called EveryVoice), called Lieberman an “insurance puppet,”noting that insurers had contributed nearly half a million dollars to his campaigns over the years.
The Democrats needed Lieberman’s vote to get reform passed, and insurers knew it. Shortly before the Senate was set to vote on the bill, Lieberman said he would vote for the bill only if the public option was stripped out.
We’ve tried the whole voting thing for 40 years now. We’ve tried the whole justice system thing for 40 years now.
It doesn’t work. Make peaceful change impossible and violent revolution becomes inevitable. Hope this CEO is just the first to fall.
Our entire system is corrupt from top to bottom and there’s no more playing nice.
Nobody is going after Taylor swift you can calm down. Bill Gates is also an unlikely target.
Neither of those people bring up rage in people. They’re not murdering people’s families for profit by denying and delaying care.
You wanna know who killed my father? The healthcare industry. The insurance companies and the rehab facility (physical, not drug, not that it matters) decided to traffic him and hold him hostage so they could collect his insurance money while refusing to provide care and refusing to send him to the hospital when he needed more intense care. These people are fucking ghouls and they deserve the full wrath of the most heavily armed population on earth.
It’s not why they have other laws.* We just have vastly different cultural beliefs of what’s important to us. We have positive and negative freedom - for example, we are free to practice whatever religion we want no matter how ridiculous (flying spaghetti monster anyone?) and we are free from religion, as in the state can’t establish it.
I bring up religion because it’s in the same amendment as free speech, but more importantly from a historical sense, for what it’s worth Europe had centuries of brutal warfare between Catholics and Protestants (which as a non Christian is just crazy to me, y’all believe in almost the same things in general) and our founding puritans were getting persecuted in England for their beliefs. So freedom of thought was the most important thing they sought leaving England to come here, and it’s why it’s our first amendment in our bill of rights.
*germany with its Holocaust history is an exception. If I went marching around with a sign that says death to Jews I’d be thrown in prison for some time.
Deposing healthcare CEOs is harm reduction that’s far more useful than prison.
You’re not wrong it being a genocide of undesirables.
Fucking burnnnnn
The point is that this instance operates in a country with stricter laws and if we wanna celebrate dead CEOs we should leave. I plan on leaving. Sorry the Europeans don’t understand what America is going through right now.
I’m gonna have to switch instances because of all the terrible shit the US does, free speech is the one thing we truly get right.
And I just want to let you know what free speech is when it comes to violence:
• yelling fire in a crowded theatre when there is none: not protected
• celebrating the death of a CEO who deserved it: protected (the deserved it is irrelevant to speech, but fuck that guy)
• saying you wish other unnamed CEOs will be killed next: protected unless there’s evidence of planning and ability to carry out murdering a specific CEO
• saying you wish a specific famous person be killed, such as Elon musk: grey area, depends on if there’s evidence of planning and ability to carry out. Public figures are a higher bar to reach than the lay people.
• saying you wish to kill your neighbor John who’s not famous: not protected regardless of planning or ability, it’s assault
• saying you want to kill any person and having evidence of planning and a method to do so: not protected
• saying you wish for a whole group to die: protected if there’s no evidence of planning and ability to carry it out. One could theoretically march around with signs that say death to fags and that’s totally legal. Example: Westboro Baptist Church picketing funerals with signs such as that.
Edit: also jury nullification is not violence. You’re going with the assumption that the assassin is guilty of a crime. Is it really a crime to murder a mass social murderer? Clearly us Americans aren’t too bent out of shape that this CEO is now resting in piss.
Edit 2: would it be murder to kill Hitler after he started gassing Jews? Is it not because Hitler had an ideology that Jews were subhuman and to be exterminated? What’s different about this CEO? Sure he didn’t target specific groups like Hitler did. But his ideology is money above all, and he didn’t care how many lives he took to make that money. Why is this any different? This is the industrialization of death. This is a genocide against undesirables. Hitler killed disabled people (and LGBTQ) first before moving onto the Jews. Most of America is just numbers on a spreadsheet and when we become too expensive and cut into profits too much we become socially murdered. It’s not a crime when the rich do it to us (for profit!!!!) but it’s a crime when we fight back? You Europeans are clueless!
Violence should be avoided, which is why our healthcare system needs to be replaced by a single payer universal system like the rest of the developed world. The current system is violence. social murder is violence.
