CEO of United Healthcare gunned down in midtown Manhattan

BradStevens said:
I find all the media now coming out in the wake of this murder regarding insurance denials, etc. pretty troublesome. Given the timing, I feel a whole lot of people are going to feel this murderer was justified in doing what he did. Some people are already claiming his action single-handedly changed the anesthesia policy of the company.

This is going to incentivize more of these killings. People like Taylor Lorenz, et al. are not only acting morally grotesquely, they are acting very, very irresponsibly.

Here's hoping we aren't facing a recession anytime soon.

Maybe the FBI will switch their focus from Catholic and parents groups to these types of domestic terrorists.

Start with a list of Ivy League graduates.

Counter re this example:

Luigi Mangione, the suspected killer of the UnitedHealthCare CEO​

The right-wing media (starting, I believe, with the New York Post) has dubbed him an "anti-capitalist," despite no evidence of that. Before his Goodreads page went private, you could see that on his list of books he'd read were drivel by Peter Thiel and Elon Musk, and that on his list of books he was planning on reading soon was Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged--pretty standard fare for a bright young "tech" person. As one NYT opinion writer, Michelle Goldberg, observed, Mangione is no "leftist; he appears to have had pretty typical heterodox podcast guy politics." (His "manifesto" makes clear that this is specifically about the health insurance industry, not capitalism.) Goldberg made some other apt observations about what this whole incident has revealed:
A huge number of people feel — with good reason — that they’ve been personally injured by the insurance industry, and by coverage decisions that seem highly arbitrary, impenetrable and unfair. So people feel like Mangione’s avenged them....
Whenever I’ve had a health scare, or am waiting for the results of routine tests like mammograms, I tend to be as panicked about all the potential paperwork as about, you know, dying. And the thing is, these companies are purely extractive. Relative to a single-payer system, they create no value whatsoever....
I think the reaction to the assassination shows there is a political opportunity for anyone who can harness all this free-floating fury toward the health care industry and plutocracy more broadly. Right now it has nowhere productive to go.

If only Clinton and the Democratic Party hadn't sabotaged Bernie Sanders in 2016....
 
When did John Brown go crazy? Eric Rudolph? This preacher:



Vigilantism do cost.



It’s all in the game, though, right?




Hard to see the line when you’re standing on it.

Yawn. My wife is an Ivy grad with a PhD. Why hasn’t she turned to violence or taught her students what you or this prof is claiming?
 
4 Ivy degrees in my immediate family & never one second of incitement to violence.

Thinking? Sure, it's encouraged. Trumpers would find that to be tough.

You’re also one of the dumbest posters on the board, paranoid, a serial liar, weak-minded, and delusional. One of the few people on the board I’d rather be sprayed by a drone than grab a beer with bc you’re such a freak. You and your beliefs are what have been repudiated as worthless. The Ivy League exposed itself with the three goofy presidents who would get trashed in a debate by a car salesman at any lot in America. If they’re representative of today’s ivy hard hard pass.

You claimed colleges are breeding violent woke warriors or something like that. How many students graduate from each year, especially at liberal institutions? How many are violent? How many do what Luigi did? That's all I was saying and I'll stand by my initial response.

If I had time, I'd look for some sources from an Ivy league grad who teaches at an Ivy league school and who also is the founder of a conservative website that matches my views.
 
Tons of studies have been done on the issues of crime rates, violent crime rates, and rate of incarceration for people not finishing HS, finishing HS, attending some college, graduating from college, and receiving graduate degrees.

In general, years of education you have completed and especially your pursuit of postsecondary education reduces substantially your tendency to commit all types of crime, including violent crime, and reduces substantially your risk incarceration for any type of crime.

These trends hold across different ethnic, religious, and socioeconomic groups.

More college = less swampy / less crimey / less Trumpish

No one commits more crime than the minorities pandered to by Dems. Excused by Dems. Never held accountable by Dems. Bailed out. Blame shifted. On cops. Wake up. Your party was dog shit. Normal people realize woke politics are stupid - save you. You’re the last believer

How does that relate to the shooting of the United Healthcare CEO?
