UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson fatally shot outside Hilton hotel in Midtown in targeted attack: cops - Just Part and Parcel of visiting a Big City

It's an attack on capitalism.

And its the problem, because...?

I swear, glowies uses to get a better training. DEI policies do not pay off.

- no family member died due to UHC
- motive: wanted to be a hero

Given the sheer number of people with a real motive, Occom's Razor does not suggest someone who just "wanted to be a hero" alone decided to do this.

Most likely someone who got screwed over, or had a loved on screwed over by UHC.

Redditors are trying to unmask him for a “we did it Reddit” flex.

I wouldn't be surprised if it was either the Feds or UHC trying to astroturf some support for crowd sourcing who the culprit is. Reddit is about the only place they could have that type of control over the thread and hope to find people that stupid.

You're not gonna like Democracy The God That Failed also by a capitalist. Troonbonista is also gay as fuck. Violence isn't the answer within a civil society, but IT IS the final answer to such a broken (AND ENFORCED) system that does not work. Fuck off with the moral complex, the sooner you realize how little these parasites give a shit about you the easier it is to stop taking it up the ass and get rid of them. I say hold your horses and reserve judgement until this case is done. Things will likely remain the same, while people who are anti-violence further hold us back within their status quo. Anti-violence people likely won't say the same thing about a crime boss who extorts people and ruin their lives, its only suddenly not okay because a faggot is doing it legally and to a degree in which it becomes absurd. The fencesitting position is getting old and makes history so cyclical.

I suppose if someone shot Bernie Madoff that would be an attack on capitalism.

While I understand why no one has sympathy for Thompson, I've decided that I can no longer celebrate his death. It's become clear to me that the health insurance bigwigs have learned the wrong lesson from this, and will now focus more on protecting themselves than helping people. They'll justify bonuses and pay raises by saying they need to pay for security. This is why violence is not the answer.

Sounds like they just need to retake the class until they learn the right lesson

Guys, the police is conducting a very important investigation. So, whatever hotline they have, I suggest not flooding it with comments that the shooter fled into the closed pool. I especially would not comment that the pool was closed due to some infectious disease, possibly HIV or AIDS.

>NYPD have officially named Benjamin Reichwald of West Chester PA as a suspect in the shooting of Unitedhealthcare CEO
>NYPD have named Benjamin Reichwald as a suspect after concluding a raid on a upstate New York Gun store which has been accused of supplying the gun used in the Manhattan shooting

Edit: No source, must be fake next

Sounds like that won't happen and it is necessary to constantly remind them with force.

It's an attack on capitalism.

This may have worked 10 years ago but the internet and especially right-wing spheres has been flooded by non-autistic people and lolbertarians are no longer welcome anywhere except amongst neoliberals and neocons.

They are not sending their best.

If a capitalist society can't handle a attack like this, then it isn't working properly and deserves to get fucked. There were way worse attacks on capitalism during the 19th and 20th century in the USA and Europe they didn't collapse.

Source? Also I straight up don't believe the NYPD has the right guy. Why would he have bought the gun in NY if he was from PA? What gun are they saying it was? Are they really gonna pester some dude who bought a BT VP9 or a HK MK23 when even basic fudds know by now that was NOT the gun used?

Is it? Maybe it's the free market correcting itself, nine millimeters at a time.

May the God of Capitalism come down and give you a .0001% pay increase for your show of piety.

Blessed be.

"Those who excuse or celebrate Mr. Thompson’s killing reveal an ends-justify-the-means sentiment that is flatly inconsistent with stable democracy."

This quote (from WaPo) is actually correct.

Because we don't live in a stable democracy. And haven't for a while.

We live in an oligarchy.

A heavily regulated industry where people can’t even change their provider more than once a year if at all isn’t capitalism you fucking numbskull.

Blatantly stealing from people you hope are too sick to sue you over it is just 'adding value', you comsymp pinko.

Are you suggesting the appropriate way to assassinate someone is to confront them to their face, throw a gauntlet down and invite them to duel? Idiot.

He should have slapped him with a leather glove and asked him his weapon of choice.
