Oh, sorry, looks like it’s been denied.
Billionaires deserve to live in fear for their lives.
I would like to know how we can all do more to bring this about.
Advocate for their killing, far and wide. Eventually someone without anything to lose will get the job done
Actual organised resistance is what we need, not just complaining and hoping.
Organizations will be taken down by the FBI as “terrorist cells”
When did peaceful protest accomplish anything?? Organizing alone is worthless. We need action, retaliation.
Individual actors are impossible to stop. I’m hoping that doesn’t take too much longer for the next one
Or we all end up patriot acted away into oblivion.
I get what you’re saying and I’m all for it, but I also wonder if there is a more sneaky way to achieve the same end result.
Maybe we need to democratize Adjustor targets. Start a worldwide coalition with some sort of anonymous forum and voting system.
We should offer to help them stand with him in solidarity, so to speak
Fuck the American oligarchy!
Why would I have sympathy for a mass murderer? The man is burning in the Pit of Hell right now.
Mene Mene Tekel Upharsin - An Accounting of the Victims of Brian Robert Thompson.
You guys aren’t reacting to the way we want you to react!! Stop it now!
Brian Robert Thompson murdered 51,000 innocent human beings.
Please cite a source. It’s gotta be much higher than that.
I’m no math wizard but I’ve read 68k people die per year from preventable shit due to denied claims. Brian worked at United since 2004, CEO since 2021 so he contributed directly or indirectly to that number of deaths per year, at least the portion United is responsible for. United has double the industry average of rejected claims.
It’s def higher than OP states.
The 51k estimate was just taking into account the time that he was CEO.
It is a reasonable first order estimate. See a comment here. I think I will organize this a bit better and make a blog post on this tomorrow. But suffice to say, 51,000 is a good baseline number, based on UHC’s share of the private insurance market and the length of Thompson’s tenure as CEO of UHC. It could be as high as 100,000. But really, at this scale, it ceases to matter. You can only really comprehend it in comparative terms. And his number of victims was order of magnitude greater than that of Osama Bin Ladin.
In other words, it’s fine to defend vigilantes when they kill unarmed Black people or anti-racist activists, but when a CEO’s life is taken, we must solemnly stay silent on the reasons why such a person might be targeted or why bystanders might not be crying.
Who didn’t expect them to pick that side?
People you fucked over don’t sympathize with you?
Boo-fucking-hoo.
Thank you for needing the working class to exist. We have received and reviewed your request for sympathy towards your continued indifference to human suffering. Unfortunately we must reject your claim…
unfortunately being an asshole is a pre-existing condition and as such cannot be covered at this time.
On top of killing people as his day job, Brian Thompson was also convicted of drunk driving, insider trading, and fraud.
Brian Thompson was a 3 time loser felon so why was he walking the streets at all? He could have been safe in jail if the justice department did their jobs and applied the same standard of justice to Thompson as they apply to the poors.
He’s dead because the kleptocracy felating justice system didnt do its job. They should turn themselves in if they want justice. If Luigi is guilty then so are they.
Demanding sympathy is the height of pity.
Pathetic. Maybe figure out why no one has any sympathy for the guy.
“I demand you respect me!” said the person who is fundamentally undeserving of respect
I will not show them the single touch of sympathy or pity or anything. Why should I? People like that would not only never show me the slightest sympathy, but they would also go out of their way in order to fuck me over and waste my time and money and then act like any reaction other than cock sucking them is criminal violence.
