(estimated) 52M membership × 32% denial rate = baseline 16M suspects
What I learned is that Kaiser actually has the lowest denial rate? Maybe the King did come for him…
Got to be a kill count up there with some pretty big dictators.
It’s unfortunate this is the reality that people are living with. Events like this will become more frequent if the billionaire class doesn’t do something about it.
Oh no. I hope they don’t keep getting submarined!
Has consequence culture gone too far?
In today’s world people should be afraid to flaunt their wealth, pursue these big positions. There’s so much inequality, I wouldn’t want to be the one to have all the goods. I dont condone murdering people for it, we should eat them instead.
So eat them alive then?
No we feast on their money while they get to serve it up voluntarily to stay clear of the guillotine.
But only as much as they can survive.
Ah, sorry, the automated system actually rejected him from qualifying for “alive”
Well no. Only 90% of them. And barely.
i wonder how much survivorship bias there is in this
survivorship of what
only the bad people are at the top so people see that and only the bad people decide to pursue that career path
(i’m just using ‘bad people’ as a simplification)
What is it exactly you think “eat the rich” means?
They’ll do something about it alright, like pushing for further militarization of the police, increased government latitude to spy on civilians, and restrictions of what kinds of weapons we’re permitted to own.
Yeah this is just the precursor to cyberpunk (both the genre and the franchise) where corporate CEOs move with militarized armed escorts and have free reign to control areas and traffic where they see fit
Which will really drive hatred and show the wage slaves exactly who owns their country. Could backfire spectacularly.
It’s like a textbook example of justice being served one way or the other, if not in orderly respectable fashion then in an abrupt violent fashion.
Society failed them both.
Society failed them both.
I’d say society did pretty well by the CEO. It was unrelenting greed and placing profits over people that got him to his end. That’s on him.
I think they mean that society, in its money worship, failed the guy killed. He obviously valued money over lives and he learned that somewhere.
I think so too, but I disagree. No one is forced into a CEO lifestyle or profit-above-all mindset. I feel like that’s pretty much on him. Echoing a comment I saw elsewhere - my empathy is out of network for this guy.
As an aside I would say capitalism failed them. Society has existed and failed and evolved since people realized it was beneficial to work together. But that basic byline has always existed with those exploiting others. Roman society failed, feudal society failed, the first version of the US failed as a society, so on and so forth. In this lens, the version of society that failed is capitalism, or probably in this case late-stage capitalism

Lemme just empty my bank account for you 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I wonder if this will spark anything?
XD omg
Someone show this to the /c/news mods, hahahahahahaha

I feel like the text should be flipped lol
This guy was a professional. You think he was an angry citizen?
Of Russia maybe.
External force trying to light the powder keg.
I’m a terrible shot and I could make that shot. I know how to rack a slide if it gets jammed. I’m no expert. Certainly not a professional assassin.
The planning was good. Bike hidden in alley, run straight to Central Park and disappear. But anyone with a little bit of time could pull that off.
If he doesn’t get caught I won’t be surprised.
Let’s see some receipts, Columbo.
Nah, it was one of the many people fucked over by UHC
maybe he lost a loved one
Probably. Lol for law enforcement trying to figure this one out, there’s millions of people with a motive to kill this dude!
Well that narrows it down to everyone.
I hope the killer gets away with it. So much motive for so many people.
