It would seem a solution to healthcare has been found.

[-] macarthur_park@lemmy.world 252 points 1 week ago

It doesn’t get more American than solving healthcare with gun violence.

I mean, it is historically how we solved all our other problems. Its not even particularly American, as much as I wish we could claim it. Lots of movements have been aided by gun violence.

as much as I wish we could claim it.

You really wish you could claim that shit? 🤨

Look, okay, we need some sort of identity. This is how people become American gun nuts in the first place, is searching for an identity. If modern American identity is going to become "yeah we were getting fucked over by corporate leeches so I shot one of em in the face" - I mean, it's not my first choice, but I can think of worse things.

Solidarity against oligarchs like that would be pretty massive. You have no idea the stone wall we would become. Try to move us, we are the mountain.

Huh? I'm not sure what you're saying, sorry. I'd like to understand though. I'm just too knackered because I've been alone with the kids all day and speed cubing all night. 💩🧠💩 What do you mean, with more words please? 😂🙏😭

What I mean is a unified proletariat is more powerful than any government body. That is the point of all the divisiveness you see today. To keep us separated and powerless.

[-] victorz@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Well yeah. Fully agree.

I often wonder why men and women in the millions, now and throughout history, would use their own legs to willingly walk to the front line and their deaths, for the purpose of inflicting death, because of the words of one or two men, instead of collectively just saying "yeah bro, not doing that".

And arresting the suspect in a McDonald's.

[-] jballs@sh.itjust.works 26 points 1 week ago

Ah man I hadn't heard that

He was on a Greyhound bus traveling through Altoona on Monday morning, sources said, when he got off and walked into a McDonald's where a witness recognized him from the images of the suspect circulated by police.

Mangione was sitting and eating when a McDonald’s employee reported him...

I guess the McDonald's employees didn't get the memo going around that if you see something, no you didn't.

This was the first thing that came to mind when I heard he was caught in Altoona and I felt so futile but I couldn't help it 💀

Probably a scumbag supervisor or manager. Doubtful it was an actual worker.
