America must not be healthy then, because we seem to lionize all sorts of killers throughout our history. I can cite examples like old west gunmen, bonnie and clyde, mafioso gangsters, and even Judge Lynch, who hanged so many British loyalists he gave American English a new word.
Get over it. People are pissed at these parasites.
Correct, we just elected a criminal to the Whitehouse. Stop pretending America is above this.
A healthy society doesn’t let people profiteer over letting people die because they can’t afford insulin.
A healthy American society elected a con man 2x but here we are trying to get mad cause society celebrated a Healthcare CEOs demise
The US is the only developed country without universal care. Why is it a surprise that people are angry?
Worth noting that insulin also costs essentially nothing to make, and yet we allow companies to charge hundreds of dollars a month to people making minimum wage who have no other choice if they want to live. We could easily provide every single diabetic with free insulin for life and it would cost an absolutely trivial amount of tax dollars, and yet we’re completely willing to let poor people literally suffer and *die* just to make extra money for rich assholes who don’t remotely need it. It’s murder, and nothing less.
both of these are correct. but then again, the entire world knows that your country is a fucking joke.
y’all dummies elected a felon, it literally cannot get stupider than that. or maybe it can? if it can, I believe you idiots will make sure we find out 🙌
What’s so stupid about this particular slice of the discourse is why would ANYBODY think that the USA is a healthy society? At no point in fact has the USA been a healthy society. In fairness most societies have never really cracked it.
Pointing out ways it is unhealthy isn’t particularly helpful without solutions. Such as, for example, making sure people have access to meds that should be free.
So, Batman, Dirty Harry and the other lionizations of vigilantes…are now void?
Both are right. The conclusion is that we do not live in a healthy society.
Healthy societies won’t celebrate vigilantes, nor would they need them. America and capitalism fucking disgusting
my pharmacy said my month supply of insulin pens is about 1500 bucks. Mean I literally went to Walmart like a hour later and bought 10ml of basically the same insulin in a vial for 30 bucks, so my monthly prescription would cost about 45 bucks if I just bought at Walmart. makes absolutely no fucking sense to me
$780/mo for insulin! It’s fucking gross!
Especially since the patent was sold for $1 because the founder wanted the world to benefit from it!
No. It’s alarming that people don’t understand how often the right answer is “both are true”.
Now they are talking about a healthy society……
No, they just lionize rapists…
RFK somewhere “and a healthy society doesn’t need insulin”
This isn’t a murder, these people are both agreeing that we don’t live in a healthy society.
Counterpoint Urkel: Rittenhouse
A healthy society would be more upset about kids being shot in school instead of this one adult/asshole being killed.
Horrible people baffled as to why the good people have no sympathy for them as they expect good people to see the good in them. Nah fucking rot 🤣
Healthy societies don’t produce vigilante killers ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
When the Mafia steps in to “manage” a company, there ought to be some clear regulations about Killing a Business, after all the corruption US Supreme Court says they’re people too.
I don’t think either are wrong. The fact that people support and want to see more vigilantism is a symptom as much as people being willfully left to die in neglect. In a healthy society we would have neither, in my estimation.
A healthy society shouldn’t make people factor in the cost of an ambulance ride during an emergency.
Yeah. This isn’t a healthy society. Hasn’t been for a long long time.
Money is the only way you poor people can take power back! No one cares about morality or ethics in the government. Why should we care? We are all a sack of blood that can leak anytime. We are all Spartacus!
EAT THE RICH. That’s all I have to say.
My mother died because she couldn’t afford her insulin. My grandparents blamed me for her death because they said if I got a job she could have afforded it. I was 14 at the time and just a child. Was it my fault for not getting a job or was it because we live in a country that can’t take care of it’s sick people?
The society is not healthy. That’s the point.
Plenty of people lionised far more odious individuals, like Rittenhouse and Zimmerman
Iirc they’re the same people who are getting very upset about the health care ceo getting iced
Nor do they allow mass murderers to walk free.
I just googled “lone wolf”
Millennials are so up in arms about corporate villains they couldn’t bother to vote in November. Lazy fucks.
This is not a healthy society. That is why we lionize vigilantes.
Trump and vance are taking Penny to a football game as a guest in their suite.
Npr reported it as fact with no comment.
What a dichotomy.
