How hated must you be when suddenly leftists, tankies, fascists, conservatives and liberals find themselves in quiet agreement about their feelings on your murder. Even the silence from gun control advocates is deafening.
- Walican132 ( @Walican132@lemmy.today ) English65•10 days ago
It’s the thing the people who are CEOs don’t want us to think about. It’s not leftists, tankies, fascists, conservatives against each other. It’s them against everyone else.

That’s why the ruling class pushes all the wedge issues and divisiveness they do. If we could talk to each other, we’d find we had more in common than otherwise expected. I thought the recent surge in union activity could have continued to a general strike across the nation. The rich know what unites us and actively seems to keep us fractured so we don’t realize our combined power.
Maybe this dude will be a catalyst in a revolution that sets these disgusting, wealthy leeches in their place.

People aren’t happy someone was murdered. People are happy that the physical representation of an industry that should prioritize health and treatment but only prioritizes profit got what it probably had coming to it.

Dunno what made you think people aren’t happy he was murdered. I’m quite pleased that he got what was coming to him. He has destroyed countless families and relationships. The only injustice is that we can’t reanimate his corpse and kill him again.

I’m glad he was offed. People like that simply don’t deserve to live. If you despise human life, why should yours be respected at all?

Sometimes they die because the health insurance that they pay for gets rejected.

The person who murdered the CEO has not been caught so you are wrong.

Just as a comment, not a suggestion: a society that squeezes its people has to either repress them hard, or at some point expect it to start boiling over. The mob lynching the leaders is what happens once the mob gets desperate enough and are not heard.

And said repression often is one of the last straws before the people reach boiling point. :)

My theory is that it’s just that episode of Its Always Sunny from the new season. Dennis is placed on a customer service loop and eventually gets so frustrated with robot receptionists, scripted tier 1 support, and a system designed to waste our time and pit us against each other, that he tracks down the CEO of the car company at his beach house and rips his heart out of his chest and eats it.
So maybe someone should try that next time?
