Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable.

Rest in piss

That's a badge of honor, truly.

It feels like the mods have given up on trying to keep the bloodlust for CEOs at bay. Every other thread is just littered with appreciation for the gunman. I'm quite ok with that.

It ain't because of the money, it's because their greed is killing everybody and everything. And I never said anything about them being not human.

The more people that know as quickly as possible, the better. They're almost certainly gonna find him now that his face is on the news.

So the next hope is for jury nullification, which is a small chance but still there. That, and getting a gofundme for the legal defense.

Doesn't look like anything to me

I was certainly looking forward to it, you ain't alone.

Got my consultation the day after RBG died, and the actual procedure a few weeks after. I definitely got the timing right.

The core message of that movie was anti capitalist, with added messaging on the effects of a deteriorating quality of life/mental health system.

Eating the rich isn't evil

And on a practical note, this man did not create or control the fucked up insurance industry by himself. Other people will take his place and continue to do what he was doing. It’s a systemic issue.

Sure he did. It may have only been one subsection of it, but he absolutely had blood on his hands for his decisions. You don't get to run an insurance company with one of the highest denial rates out there and not have culpability.

And even if somebody else steps up and doesn't fix it, that doesn't absolve him of the blood on his hands.

The point was to throw out some ways that one can push for change without murdering people

And that point is undermind by those ways not being viable.

I replied to another comment about one specific way to introduce licensure risk to insurance company doctors as a way to get them to change their policies

That's a bandaid solution at best.

Long term, I think our best bet is to keep pushing for universal healthcare that will effectively make health insurance obsolete. It’s a winning message (something like 60% of America already supports it), and we’ve come close at least twice in recent history.

This country couldn't even turn down the guy paraphrasing Hitler, whose promised to finish gutting the ACA. The chances of us seeing universal healthcare through "the right way" isn't good.

the broad strategic decisions made by the executives aren’t going to factor in a remote likelihood of violence on a particular executive.

That only remains true so long as this doesn't turn into a copycat situation, which it very well might given how numerous the people with motives are, how easy it is to get guns in this country, and how fervently the people of this country are supporting the gunman.
