I said something along the lines of:
“Wow, I haven’t had a reason to smile ear to ear in a while.”
Along with
“Nah, the more dead corpos dragons, the better.”
In response to some liberal going off about how violence is never the solution, not mentioning how this murdered dipshit has personally overseen a system that perpetuates harm, suffering and death (violence) in the name of profit.

Good ole’ civility clause.
Whats the paradox of tolerance?
.world mods have never heard of it I guess.
He … was… the CEO of UHC, one of the largest private healthcare providers in the US.
The dude himself was facing a DOJ investigation into insider trading.
… He didn’t even have a profile pic on his LinkedIn. He did not want people to know that much about him, pretty odd for the CEO of such a large company.
UHC as a company has a long history of scandals and extortion style bullshit, much of which he oversaw.
Huge, huge data breach, which UHC compensates those affected by basically saying ‘lol, not our problem.’
Used AI model to automate the process of denying people’s medical claims.
(Remember how we were gonna have Death Panels if we gave in to ObamaCare or better alternatives? Yeah uh turns out the free market just builds its own fully automated heartless machine that acts as an uberefficient Death Panel, whoops)
Tons of instances of UHC harassing doctors for having the gall to attempt to get their patient’s needed care covered by their insurance, denying needed care to chronically ill people for bullshit reasons.
Not like a doctor knows anything about what medical care their patient needs, obviously a number crunching, penny pinching person with mo medical degree whatsoever knows better.
Pretty good write-up so far, but I think it’s missing the fact that for some time, the “AI” they used had a ~90% error rate, causing it to decline care. That’s not a typo, ninety, nine zero.

Gee, I wonder why people celebrated his shooting!
I’m sure that they saw that as a feature, not a bug.
