“Frankly, these parasites simply had it coming.”
FUCKING AMEN BROTHER
No lies detected.
Bro put literary citations in there 🐐
Interesting that the United Healthcare CEO implemented practices that killed far more people but I guess he’s the innocent victim because his victims were poor.
Bless him, he’s so young. I wish this didn’t have to happen.
Damn. I wish they hadn’t caught him and he could’ve kept up the good work.
I understand the importance of democracy. I understand the importance of having a system, and doing the best we can within our system. That it’s morally ambiguous at best to take execution into your own hands like that.
But I’d like people to remember that if we had always played by the rules, America would still be a British colony. George Washington and the other founding fathers, with all their faults and weaknesses, finally stood up and said “enough” and took matters into their own hands.
Sometimes doing what’s Right regardless of what’s Legal is one of the most fundamentally American things a person can do.
Text: “To the Feds, I’ll keep this short, because I do respect what you do for our country. To save you a lengthy investigation, I state plainly that I wasn’t working with anyone. This was fairly trivial: some elementary social engineering, basic CAD, a lot of patience. The spiral notebook, if present, has some straggling notes and To Do lists that illuminate the gist of it. My tech is pretty locked down because I work in engineering so probably not much info there. I do apologize for any strife of traumas but it had to be done. Frankly, these parasites simply had it coming. A reminder: the US has the #1 most expensive healthcare system in the world, yet we rank roughly #42 in life expectancy. United is the [indecipherable] largest company in the US by market cap, behind only Apple, Google, Walmart. It has grown and grown, but as our life expectancy? No the reality is, these [indecipherable] have simply gotten too powerful, and they continue to abuse our country for immense profit because the American public has allwed them to get away with it. Obviously the problem is more complex, but I do not have space, and frankly I do not pretend to be the most qualified person to lay out the full argument. But many have illuminated the corruption and greed (e.g.: Rosenthal, Moore), decades ago and the problems simply remain. It is not an issue of awareness at this point, but clearly power games at play. Evidently I am the first to face it with such brutal honesty.”
I don’t think they actually couldn’t decipher the “indecipherable” bits, I’m pretty sure I can tell what’s in there just from context
I wonder what the jury selection for him is gonna be like. Considering how many people have been fucked over by the US healthcare system as a whole and what the public sentiment has (justifiably) been, good fucking luck
I mean, he’s not wrong.
I feel like [indecipherable] are probably colorful Italian curse words
He’s not wrong
They write the tax system by donating money to the political system making their profits bigger, price setting like in insurance industries. . .
He’s entirely correct. He might have some political opinions that I disagree with, but every word said in this manifesto is correct
SIR I can only get so wet
What is CAD?

The hero we needed!
This… is starting to feel like a little “Wag the Dog” to me. There are a lot of versions of his manifesto kicking around and a lot of doubt surrounding whether this was even the same man in the still from the surveillance video which was provided to the media.
This is all starting to feel very manufactured, and it’s making me very uncomfortable.
I’ve studied the news, been educated in public relations and have trained myself over the last two decades to develop a very sensitive and intuitive bullshit meter. Something about this is starting to feel very wrong. We are seeing way too much of this. The endless photos of surveillance, the proof of his bag in the park? They don’t usually let us see this much of an active investigation. It’s captivated a nation. This feels like a distraction for something.
I’m not saying this man being shot and killed isn’t an event of note. And so is the man who shot him. It’s significant, but like… when was the last time we saw a crime unfold in real time with every nook and cranky of an active investigation being put up on the news like this?
Listen, this is WvP and I feel safe enough here to say, I’ve been invested in journalism since I was a kid. I was subscribed to Rolling Stone, the Economist, and the Walrus as a young teen and read these publications for many years. I have formal education in public relations, where they teach you how to spin the truth to impress something upon others. I have been heavily engaged in learning politics since the late 90’s, and I’m not even 40. I’m also very intuitive naturally and I’ve been a writer since elementary school.
I know a narrative when I see one. Something about this whole situation has the hair standing up at the back of my neck and feeling very uncomfortable.
That’s a good manifesto. 5 stars
Beautifully said.
👏👏👏 he was with us that day, right?
Icon
This is going to get buried.
He’s not following the script for events like this. He’s supposed to have a long, rambling manifesto for pundits to talk about. They’re supposed to get some news coverage from how weird it is.
This… ain’t that.
The revolution will not be televised. The revolution will be live. 🤘🏼
He wrote it like a thesis, with sources and everything. What a king.
So where do we go to put money on his books?
I’m not convinced this isn’t a ploy
I´m a lesbian but I would let him fuck me out of respect.
