In June. It’s a backstory of his life


That entire reaction to that case was the warning that things in America were going sour. Desensitization from violence and “the ends justifying the means”. It’s incredibly dark.


Yep.

Don’t think the right wing isn’t taking notes feverishly, too. If progressives are seen as being fine with what he did, then it’s just a matter of time until RW hit squads start dropping people they don’t like in the streets. And I think they’ll be a lot more capable at it because many of them are prior military.


This is a bad direction we’re heading down.


If they drop more rich people profiting off killing the rest of us, I'm perfectly okay with it. They may wear suits and ties, but make no mistake, the people running these mega corporations prioritizing profit over everything are cold blooded murderers. The system is failing to address their crimes, and thus the people eventually will.

The social order is a contract. The rich are the ones breaking it.


Most of the posters on this forum are “the rich”. Ask them.

Are you ok with getting shot? Are you ready to be murdered?


I'm not talking about DCUM rich. I'm talking the billionaires who influence enture industries, exploit workers for profits, and who knowingly destroy the environment, all because line must go up. The reason we're in this mess is because so many of you fools think you're the freaking rich. You're not the rich dummy.


What profits in the insurance industry?

What billionaires are billionaires because of the insurance industry?

wtf are you even talking about? Let’s hear some names and profit margins of which billionaire(s) you hate so much in what health insurance whatever. Praytell.

You can try to dismiss the anger engendered by the $%*€} up system, or you can think "Whoa, what makes a smart if mentally ill person view a healthcare CEO as an evildoer deserving of death?"

The killing was not okay, but it is a sign of a huge problem in health insurance.


Lots of stuff:
Grandiose narcissism
Schizophrenia
Zero healthy skills to job loss
Radicalization online
Toxic masculinity
Bipolar disorder

No.
No we do t understand the “rage” that drove Luigi Mangione to commit premeditated hunting and homicide.

We don’t know wtf his mental problems are whatsoever. And we never well.

Hell, if his parents and overpriced PR agent attorney cared one iota about his mental health they’d sign a gag order and get him to a daily psychologist asap.

Instead they tell him to shut up and play their game. Mental health be damned. Stuff it down and act.

While i certainly do not condone what he did, I don’t think he should be executed.

Not because I oppose capital punishment - I DO believe in the death penalty. But I oppose it for him, in this particular case, because I’m absolutely certain he *wouldn’t* be facing the death penalty if he’d shot ME in the back. Or you. Because we’re both nobodies. And they wouldn’t have pursued a death penalty against him for killing me. But going for a death penalty in this case where he kills a rich CEO? That messaging tells me that my life isn’t as important as Thompson’s.

That is why I oppose his possible execution. Because he wouldn’t face death if he’d shot you or me.

Meanwhile, these healthcare CEO's are making tens of millions of dollars in salary. While I would never advocate for violence this goes in the category of I don't GAF.


Sorry how much was the bill for the flu test?

Did you ask for the cash pay price? Was it lower than your insurance negotiated price? Take your pick.

Dude they have negative to zero to 2-4 % profit margins.

Go hate on software or something with 40%+++ profit margins.

Dems seem happy to say they solved healthcare with Obamacare, but the facts on the ground is that we did not. Dem Sec Kennedy is not wrong to say the healthcare system is broken - we spend more $$ for worse outcomes. Where are the calls for reform???


Why he did it?

Because he’s a psychopath with zero coping skills. Instead of being normal he self isolated, plotted a proxy kill, made a 3d gun, stalked the proxy, woke up at 5am and waited for him, shot him dead in the back 3 times, and fled for days.

Total loose cannon wildcard 26 yo. Who knows what he’ll do next time he has an episode or goes on a bender.

National hero.


Will you say the same about the person who shoots a notable liberal in the back?


???

The guy wasn't shot because he was right-wing. He was shot because he's a healthcare CEO. The health insurance system is a disaster of opposing interests.

If you have GEHA--which is owned by United Healthcare--and you've gotten any medical services lately, you can probably relate to Luigi. I sure can. They have cost me hours and hours of time by their willful mishandling of claims.



I had huge problems with Aetna after paying $2600 a month premiums as a self employed family. Luigi had the right idea!


So what yours self insured. If you were covered by an employer they would pay $30k a year for your email and you would pay $7k.

Change jobs if it bothers you so much. Or do full on welfare and Medicaid.

Leave it to the U.S. healthcare system to profit off people’s health problems and not GAF if you get care or not as long as they make a profit.


Their profit was razor thin and barely existent. Learn some basic finance. After than go learn and compare quality of care, death panels and P&L of the various countries’ health insurance.

Ridiculous and dumb idea. Just like his dumb killing idea and execution.

Sure his special criminal defense attorneys will attempt to make a mockery of police and courtrooms, but this whole thing boils down to society going off and shooting whatever human representative they can find of something they personally don’t like.

Disgusting.

Or perhaps you need to have some desperately needed health insurance coverage be denied and then report back how you feel about Luigi.


NP I have stage 4 breast cancer and understand the frustration. I would NEVER condone violence or murder. Ever.

Has your medical treatment been denied.
your treatment didn’t get denied. Just coverage for it does



Can you pay for a procedure out of pocket? Can you get a quote on how much a procedure will cost? Can you get a payment plan? Can you just write a check for say a C-section when you are also paying $2600 a month in premiums?
so I guess medical debt can’t be a democrat talking point anymore?



Where do you live?! Neither party talks about it.
