Mangione is accused of leaving behind evidence showing disdain for the insurance industry. Similarly, the NFL headquarters gunman identified as Shane Tamura left behind a handwritten note blaming the league and football for causing chronic traumatic encephalopathy, known at CTE, prosecutors noted.
I believe there is talk of that evidence being mishandled or planted.
The more, the merrier.
If he did then we might not be as fucked as it looks like we are. But so far, I’m not seeing it happening. The rich aren’t scared enough.
Innocent men.
Which ones?
I sure as fuck wish it did, where are these copycats?
Prosecutors say Luigi Mangione, accused of killing the CEO of UnitedHealthcare on a Manhattan sidewalk, has inspired others to embrace violence over reasoned debate.
Wtf is “reasoned debate” supposed to mean when you’re discussing for-profit, killing machine, only making money for investors and CEOs, healthcare???
Jfc.
I like your brain.
They literally don’t see us dying as a problem, it’s an inevitability.
This is what generational wealth in an inequal society literally always leads to.
No one in those C suites have every went to public school, they’ve never worked a bullshit job, they don’t interact with anyone outside of their class unless it’s an employee and they’re a client.
The status quo is we die and they profit, it’s only a problem when one of them dies.
100%
A Republican town hall:
“People are gonna die” shouts a man concerned for the wellbeing of others.
“We are all going to die.” The senator says with a derisive scoff.

She then responds to her disdain for living people with this:

They fucking laugh at us openly.
But, the joke is not funny.
Nor is what they deserve.
LoL!. Right? Rational conversations don’t work when your opponent is a psychopath. And when you use your right to free speech to denounce what they’re doing you get gaslit and silenced. Then you protest and the government sides with them because they’re in their pocket, and they send the police to beat up yo ass.
The only resort we have left is violence.

“reasoned debate” has clearly been working so well so far. Have you even TRIED sending a polite letter to a fascist who thinks they’re above the law?
/s
Is reasoned debate when you gerrymander political maps to give the illusion of democracy to a technofascist system?
Seriously fuck these people. If they didn’t want violence they shouldn’t have taken away the peaceful options.
I think “reasoned debate” is when thousands and thousands of people in public comment periods strenuously oppose and object to opening up national wildlife refuges to oil drilling, and then they fucking do it anyway. I’m not sure though. I might not be clear on the definition. 🤷♂️
What has that got to do with the crime or anything else?
Oh no. people hate CEO news at 1:00.
I was hoping it would, unfortunately I don’t think it has because greedy CEOs are still a problem.

Why did they put the killer’s words in the same space as the face of an innocent man?
Votive candles, too
I’m about to go to Dragon Con, and I’ll be interested to see how many folks will be cosplaying as Luigi is this year. I’m betting it’ll be at least tied with KPop Demon Hunters cosplay, if not even more popular.

I just feel like Blackstone locks their shit down hard enough no one could just “wander in” with a rifle…

You don’t do over 13 billion in gross annual revenue without springing for a security service.
But even assuming that were an accident, that means the federal government sees any death of a high level executive of a billion dollar corporation as a horrible crime of itself completely different from a regular murder. Even if they’re not the intended target.
It’s a sentiment most people arrive at even if they can’t verbalize or fully understand it.
And it’s not helping them. Cracking down on the populace is the absolute worst thing to be doing now, thousands of years have produced more than enough examples.
On a basic level people are going to start thinking of everyone that’s not a billionaire as “us” and everyone working with billionaires in a high level “them”.
The rest is just the natural result of how humans are wired, and why the wealthy try so hard to make us draw the us/them lines literally anywhere else.
But there’s no just war but a class war, and eventually the majority remember that.
One of the people shot was a security guard. But regular corporate security is a sham.
A liqour store in the hood at least pays a real cop to sit in a real cop car outside…
Lmao that’s awesome
Send more blue shells. The health insurance industry is a cancer upon the country.
I went to the dentist a few months ago to get a couple fillings. I haven’t had insurance for years so I haven’t had the chance to go. They said after I was done that it’d be something like $20 with insurance. Fast forward to two weeks ago I went into the dentist for a normal cleaning and before I even sit in the chair I’m being told that I still owe $900 from my last visit. They told me that my insurance denied my claim and that I had to pay in full. Was it a lot? Not really. But that’s also almost an entire paycheck for me. And as someone that lives basically paycheck to paycheck it can make a huge difference.
This is exactly why I haven’t been to the dentist in three years. I hadn’t had insurance and didn’t want to pay a ridiculous amount just to get a filling or two. Figured now that I have insurance through work I can start getting my teeth sorted. Felt so pissed off that I didn’t even set up another appointment since they’ll probably deny me again 4 months later.
And after all that, I’m sure you can guess what insurance company they provide through my job. Here’s hoping I don’t get that diabetes that runs in my family.
Just a note - while others will tell you not to pay, what you should do instead is go in and get a checkup (covered), and ask them to do a pre-d on anything they want to do.
What’s a pre-d?
I’ve never actually heard that phrase, but from Context I’m guessing they mean to get pre-approval done before you get the procedure done. Which is really good advice for every medical procedure you ever get done. At least the ones you are conscious for.
“Pre-determination,” I’m guessing.
Just don’t pay. Let it go to collections agencies. Medical debt is basically worthless and they don’t even bother to harass you for it.
Oh they absolutely do. Dealt with it for years plus it’ll tank your credit.
It didn’t used to. It used to be that medical debt was excluded from your credit report. That changed recently though thanks to, you guessed it, Republicans.
Well it did use to, that was a very brief time period where it didn’t. For most of us that’s been a part of our lives for many decades.
Is there a cutoff date for which debt qualifies to go on your credit report now? My shitty ex Dentist is still pestering me for crap work she did something like three years ago. I mean it’s actually a collection agency but same thing.
Medical debt now goes to your credit report.
Thanks Trump admin.
So who’s with me in starting a guillotine manufacturing concern?

I feel like this article is just another one trying to push the shane was after the nfl when he did not shoot a woman leaving the elevator he entered but then immediately shot a ceo when he got off the elevator. Yeah they found a note.
We literally refer to it as “getting Luigi’d”.
“We” need to stop that. It implies that the accused, innocent, man is known to be the guilty party. By normalizing equalization of the innocent man and the murderer, we encourage the police and prosecution to push their case harder.
That’s very fair.
