Not to mention preventable deaths of people who avoid the doctor because they can’t afford it.
He also sold 31% of company stock days before the WSJ dropped news about a fraud and insider trading investigation.
Julie should probably stfu.
His wife will be fine after she gets the life insurance check. I’m sure he was an absentee father so a new iPad would probably take care of any upset the kids might have.
Yep. We can acknowledge that murder is wrong while also acknowledging that the victim was a piece of shit.
I don’t lose sleep when someone guns down a child molester, not going to lose sleep just cause this dude is a white collar CEO. As if that makes a difference in their ability to destroy lives.
If you don’t want to be remembered in death as a piece of shit, don’t live your life as one.
He was a human being, eh?
You might have wanted to remind him of that a few years ago – as it is, one of the few things he did that links his humanity to mine is *die*.
Oh please. I’m not even going to pretend to be sad about the death of someone who was literally a walking, talking human cancer.
>he was a human being
So were the people he was responsible for screwing over and robbing blind while they suffered. Get the fuck out of here with that bullshit; dude was a greedy little piggy who got his bacon cooked.
This is the kind of disconnect that the upper the upper class has with the rest of us! Julie better read the room
Every time one of the small number of humans with a grip on the reins of power dies, however they die, will be celebrated. And they’d better be thankful that it stops at the internet laughing at them. The last time there was this much wealth consolidation and corruption, the people brought the guillotines.
They really expect us to mourn the loss of this subhuman nightmare of a person. Ain’t going to happen. He was as divorced from his own humanity as one can get. To consciously deny people quality of life so he could profit off that misery and then to be asked to respect that person’s life is to dwell in the belly of absurdity. He represents everything that disgusts me with the world today. He was the kind of individual that this world could really do better without.
Well shucks, my thoughts and prayers are out of network and have been denied.
Julie be quiet and sit down. You can’t even get thoughts and prayers because they’re out of network. Go try to act high and mighty elsewhere.
Suck my dick Julie Nelson. Imagine the number of families that were destroyed because UHC denied claims for life saving treatments that could have prevented needless pain and suffering to the patients lived one. No one cares about a CEO that makes millions off of the death of Americans they don’t care about.
Internet going hard lately, they killed that man twice.
All manner of psychopaths have families. That doesn’t mean people should feel bad every time one dies.
you’re laughing. a greedy CEO was killed and you’re laughing
Thank god he’s a human. Humans can die.
The 1% really and truly believe the same people they trample and bleed dry on their way to the top should be throwing themselves over rich men’s golden coffins and cursing the heavens for stealing away one of our elitist overlords. From the bottom of my heart, I believe the world would be better off if they all got “lead poisoning.”
“He was a human being with a family”
Yeah, so was Ted Bundy, Hitler, Pol Pot, Stalin, John Wayne Gacy…
play stupid games, win stupid prizes. no sympathy for a system that profits off people’s pain
He should have lived his life very differently if he wanted to be mourned by strangers.
His wife Paulette is shattered over this “senseless” killing. I’m sure all of the families who have lost loved ones due to predatory healthcare practices are shattered by those senseless killings as well. I’ll spare my humanity to them.
Just a reminder that Emperor Palpatine, CEO of the Death Star who was just blown up by rebels, was a human being with a family and friends. So many comments about his demise are despicable.
Why should I care that the bad guy of the movie got his cummupance?
I’m sick of the “High Road” some people use to try to elevate the status of Garbage people.
But he was a human!?! So? He was a human that broke the social contract. He was a human with a responsibility to serve other humans that used the service, not just a small group of other humans who identify as shareholders.
Who the fuck is that despicable Julie Nelson. Those moutherfuxkers don’t care about all the death the piece of shit caused. They only care about themselves.
Guess it’s true what they say, you reap what you sow. If you’ve spent your life hurting others, don’t expect sympathy when your time’s up.
We don’t have any sympathy for mass murderers, we are able to see their crimes and their direct connection to them in plain sight. We see their victims and the horror.
Yet, as Humans we have a big issue when it comes to indirect, drawn out, crimes with no instantly visible consequences. If we can not see and experience tangible results first hand we seldom accept them, regardless of 3rd party information.
Under this a-holes rule that company killed thousands of people, maybe even tens of thousands, but because it is through inaction they died, and in an out-of-sight manner, we have a big disconnect and don’t see it for what it is, mass murder.
We treat most companies and governments this way. And it is wrong.
Capitalism was never about helping people. It’s about the profit, and about how evil you can be to maximize it.
White collar serial killing… Sounds about right. Looks to be legal too who would have thought
I’m cool with dehumanizing this one fucker in particular.
And that is exactly why we are where we are … stop insisting we feel bad because someone FAFO.
Human lives are just the cost of doing business now. They don’t give a fuck about us, why should we be any different?
I like the phrasing
A vigilante took out a serial killer. It’s not legal but it’s not wrong
I do not condone murder.
I do not feel the least bit bad for this guy.
I feel bad for his children.
But they have 50 million dollars and some of that was my money.
Thank you Julie!
I am sure he’s looking up right now, applauding your defense of his legacy as his penis gets flattened over and over again by a demon.
He didn’t qualify as a human being.
H*tler was also a human being with a family. He wasn’t better
Jesus, people are so fucking angry. The rage is seething just below the surface.
United healthcare started deploying that AI system in the 2010s before Thompson became CEO in 2021. I am in no way defending Thompson, but the problem at United healthcare is way bigger than he is. 440,000 employees, executives, and board members, implemented the policies that make it such a shitty company.
