It’s one thing to mock it on pseudonymous platforms like Reddit and the fediverse.

It’s another to do it somewhere linked to your real name and job like LinkedIn.

People really hate insurance companies.

[-] sunzu2@thebrainbin.org 5 points 3 weeks ago

Don't do it under your names folks, regime will be making lists based on this.

They are scared and they will lash out.

With that being said, fuck that parasite.

FAFO

“United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson’s final KD ratio (7,652,103:1) lands him among the all time greats,” a thread deleted by r/interestingasfuck moderators said.

[-] moody@lemmings.world 6 points 3 weeks ago

By definition, none of the kills are his. They're all assists.

[-] ExcessShiv@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 3 weeks ago

Still pretty impressive ratio though

[-] joel_feila@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

I would pay for that to be his grave stone

[-] jagged_circle@feddit.nl 4 points 3 weeks ago

It only costs one bottle of spray paint

[-] Confused_Emus@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 weeks ago

They’re gonna have to put this dipshit’s grave on private property.

Too much fat, it'd be unhealthy.

[-] nshibj@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

Separate the fat. Make soap with it. Sell it to the rich.

COMPOST. THE. RICH.

[-] Rakonat@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

Turn the rich into soap and clean this society up!

What I like about this moment is that the people who ought to be fearful are indeed the ones who are fearful. I mean shit, Elon is posting Tweets about how great CEOs are actually, health insurance companies are removing pages from their websites that identify leadership, it's a lovely little pocket of schadenfreude where we can all take a breath and prepare for the next 4 years.

[-] Blackmist@feddit.uk 5 points 3 weeks ago

I like the idea that they've got billions of dollars, but will have to live in a windowless bunker eating beans.

[-] surph_ninja@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

They couldn’t even hunker down in their mansions for two weeks of Covid lockdown.

They like to fantasize about it, but the reality of living like that will hit them fast.

These parasites know that we got numbers on our side and we permit their rule by and large...

I don't think this corp of owners realize that plebs can turn on a dime, they got too comfortable. This is a wake up call.

Having their goon wacked like this got to make them feels a certain way hehe

[-] surph_ninja@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

I hope there’s a copycat to reinforce the lesson very soon, or they’ll write this off as a one off.

[-] shortwavesurfer@lemmy.zip 5 points 3 weeks ago

This guy was willing to do it for free. Imagine if there was a bounty.

I couldn't help but notice Blue Cross rescinded its very dangerous policy placing a time limit on anesthesia the day after the murder.

I don't want a reign of terror, but perhaps just a little bit of terror will have CEOs thinking they could be next when considering especially harmful policies.

Finding out after you've fucked around isn't terror.

Timothy McVeigh was a terrorist. This guy's a vigilante.

In France, during the Nazi occupation in WW2, a few people turned to the Resistance movement which was also a terror operation: they would target military objectives but also conduct assassinations of nazi officials designed to inspire fear in the others and spark support in the population.

Went to the post, posted a laughing emoji. I'm French.

[-] Toneswirly@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

Stop struggling and accept that lots of people are ok with advocating violence against evil people.

I'm telling ya, this is the beginning of A Christmas Carol. The ghost of Thompson needs to visit his colleagues and warn them you too, shall die, and no-one will mourn you and the people will celebrate in the streets. And all your friends will tear into your assets like vultures into carrion.

Heck, replace the ghosts with mobsters and use a trick of time rather than supernatural spirits, and you have a 21st century version of the story.

[-] bender223@lemmy.today 3 points 2 weeks ago

GOOD! #good

[-] ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.net 3 points 3 weeks ago

He didn't really get "assassinated". He just got denied his critical-life benefits.

Thank fuck Lemmy isn't owned by corporate interests that need other corporate interests to advertise on them or it'd be happening here, too.

[-] Deceptichum@quokk.au 3 points 3 weeks ago

.world does it voluntarily.

[-] NickwithaC@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

This is the top post on all of Lemmy right now and it's in a .world community.

It's bi-partisan too. Which makes this infinitely more insane

[-] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 2 points 2 weeks ago

Weird, isn't it, like there's some vast wellspring of support a political party could have tapped into by doing literally fucking anything but defending the status quo.

[-] KinglyWeevil@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 weeks ago

It's almost like the uniting factor of the people is class. I feel like there was a historical figure once, who was assassinated for trying to pivot from race to class because the government saw the danger of a united population.

Every other cause is a distraction from that one.

Man, this shit just keeps being funny. The longer it stays funny, the better it affects all involved.
