Yes, “The American Dream” aka, fucking over your fellow common man for a buck.
I read a comment the other day that’s stuck with me, I can’t remember the precise wording but it was something like:
“Every cent spent on this man’s funeral was made on the back of someone else’s”
Gang you are missing the point. Thompson worked really hard from humble beginnings to become the absolute best at being a horrible human being. That’s gotta count for something, right? /s
world’s most important companies
That’s hilariously American defaultism considering most of the world doesn’t need companies like UHC
I wonder what their market share is in England or Japan.
Got rich trampling over as many people as possible then died by gun violence. A true blue american boy
He then became a fucking murderer for profit.
Mussolini interned at a bakery one summer and attempted to learn the harmonica, you judgemental monsters…
Hitler liked animals and hated smoking. Like mussolini, and this ceo, that doesn’t make them good
And was vegetarian and a talented painter.
But that’s not at all what he’s known for is it?
All those things are moot when you are responsible for the suffering and deaths of others.
I didn’t have any sympathy for him until I found out he played basketball and the trombone.
This changes everything.
When it’s your job to profit off of human misery, don’t be surprised when you find out what human misery feels like.
I think if he had any personal friends who thought he was a good person the media would have made time for them to speak up about it. But only other rich executives have.
Even if you are a good friend, why muddy your name by associating your self with him now?
You ain’t gonna get any of that 10 million per year salary he earned.
His wife and children will and they are smart to avoid publicly.
This whole story highlights that when given a chance, peasants will turn on their masters.
But the elites got police doing show of force photo shoots to send a counter message?
Who are they intimidating? A guy like luigi, will execute anyway, rest of us limp dick cucks will still shit post in his support.
The entire circus actually is feed the shit posting even more. Emperor has no clothes.
With that being said, they will fuck us over even harder for this.
It was said he didn’t live with his wife and kids. If true, of course they’d STFU.
Reading this feels like I’m at the bar. Kinda agree with the sentiment though.
🍻 Cheers to you
Oh shit, he was elected Homecoming King?? Well that changes everything.
He won a popularity contest at a dance when he was a teenager. This means he was a good person.
No mention of being prom king though, probably got corrupted by the homecoming crown and started changing.
Wasn’t there a reddit post about this guy and how he was like a womanizer or something and he and his wife have been separated for years, basically saying this guy wasn’t the pillar of humanity the media was making him out to be? If there was a post, was any of that true?

No idea about cheating or a womanizer, but he and his wife were separated for years. He had a DUI, was sued for fraud, and possibly engaged in insider trading.
Yeah, he came drom humble beginnings, but he didn’t stay humble.
He was working class but when given the opportunity to step on heads to get ahead he took it and fucked over the working class.
Raga to riches story play important role in regime propaganda…
Aee peasants you too can be great and if you are not that’s becuase you suck. Now put these fries into the bag, boy
That’s why I was saying before Mangione was identified that it wouldn’t have shocked me if his wife put a hit out on him.
I can’t find it but wouldn’t surprise me.
I have good memories of Brian Thompson. grabs a pipe for a good solemn smoke
Why I remember when he was there on a cross next to Jesus himself, comforting the poor messiah. He actually got into the business hoping that less people would die of crucifixion related injures. It’s why he declined so many people, the money had to be there so that if they crucified Christ again his old friend would recover this time.
No I’m just fucking with you. Brian was a mass murderer and his passing is not mourned, not even by the billionaires. They don’t give a shit about Thompson, they’re just worried they could be next.
Also is that really his picture? I’m not one to judge people for their appearances, but I’m not sure they could find a douchier looking picture of him if they tried.
This is a better one, DUI in 2017:
He had to have been the best drunk driver I knew!
He was innocent I tell you, he was just drinking a nice bottle of water to keep his hydration up. So it turned into wine at some point, why should we lock a man up for witnessing the miracles of our Lord and Savior…
…God I wish I believed in God…
Anyone can drink and drive, but it’s so “pedestrian”. You can only cut short like what, 50-60 lives. It takes a special talent to hurt or kill millions
I’m not convinced we’re much different except by circumstance. Anyone trying to manage that many human interactions is only going to see numbers. I know we’d like to think we have been or would be filtered out, but I’m not convinced.
The problem is corporate structures that create these behemoths that essentially can’t have ethical liability. Someone else will do his job now. Killing him benefits exactly nobody. Just more distraction from what we should be focusing on.
Killing him benefits exactly nobody.
Well it is provocative, it got the plebs aligned that health insurance got to go.
Many people will switch from unitedparasites nezt year so at least his shiti employer will also suffer then.
Most of us don’t choose who insures us - our company or personal finances do. There’s no market here for people to walk away with their dollars. Anything even a little outside the system has been crushed.
Companies that don’t provide benefits with uhc might have an easier time poaching employees from companies that do, after the higher denials has been highlighted so much.
Large employers provide options… Smaller ones you are correct.
I’d imagine most self-insured only use one company with a variety of plans, but I may be wholly ignorant on other corps.
So ambitious small town guy with no empathy or ethics moved up the chain until he profited off the pain and suffering of others. I’m sure many of these trash humans trying to praise him have never had to worry about how they were going to stay alive. You notice they are all just like him. Trash.
The adjuster is just a sanitation worker?
Its a honest job.
Robert Sterling is a fucking twat.
