I assume the DOJ will pursue the death penalty for the claims adjuster.
Don’t kill people with guns. Kill people with paperwork. Most effective serial murder in the world. We know their motives, MO, and exactly where they live, but nobody will prosecute them.
I’m told the best way to kill someone and get away with it is to hit them with your car. Not, like, drive into a crowd of people, but like nail them when they’re crossing the street or walking near the side of the road. Especially if they’re walking or on a bike. You can just say you didn’t see them or whatever, and our car-focused culture will be like “yeah ok that happens.”
So hypothetically if any healthcare CEOs are out jogging in their suburbs, someone could run them over and maybe not even be charged with a crime.
Nah, because it’s a CEO the person who does it would definitely get charges, and they would likely push for the death penalty, even for a traffic accident.
CEOs are not on the same level as the rest of us.
Might be right, but remember that the families of healthcare CEOs can find a good lawyer to sue your ass for wrongful death.
Probably better than getting the death penalty for allegedly shooting the CEO dead, but yeah there’s no risk-free way of getting rid of the the worst sorts of people.
There’s no risk free way of letting them live.
Oof. Poignant.
No, the judge just gets another Caribbean vacation.
Will the oligarchs seek the death penalty for this company killing a civilian child?
No
But they’ll seek the death penalty for a civilian killing one of them.
One Luigi wasn’t enough, i see.
Reminds me of a scene in Fight Club when Robert Paulson accidentally becomes a martyr. The crew partially took his death as, “we are all Robert Paulson,” we are all this martyr.
There is a nation of Luigis, and it’s everyone. Everyone just has to stop waiting to die. It need not be violent or deadly, either. One way would be merely: Everyone just has to stop. Doing everything. At the same time.
Probably a good time would be around when the supply chains completely collapse in 10 or so days from now.
Hol up I’m OOTL why are supply chains collapsing in 10 days or so
Because it takes 3 weeks for cargo ships to arrive in California from China. Trump announced his tarrifs 3 weeks ago, so imported items are about to drop off
People need to get off the consumer bandwagon in order for this to happen.
Whenever we’re on the brink of radical change, all it takes is a new hollywood movie to come out to distract everyone.
With supply chains halted, we’re all going to be thrown off the consumer bandwagon soon. With no choice in the matter.
Plant your victory garden this year. Hunt. Fill the freezer. Go solar. Build a network of mutual aid.
Fuck were going to need a pumped up kicks for ceos if we keep needing more Luigi. Some music to keep us pumped.
Oligarchs vs their Consumers. Both now killing each other openly. The opening of true class warfare.
Removed by mod
I wonder what the previous could have written.
Surely the comment wasn’t removed because he was encouraging people to demonstrate their displeasure regarding their denied claims directly to the health insurance’s CEO, as that would be perfectly legal.
Friendly reminder that Lemmy’s modlogs are completely transparent and you can see the exact text of the removed comment by checking the modlog.
Would you be able to tell me how to do this? I’m on mobile, I have admittedly only spent a few seconds searching but I can’t see modlogs.
I’ve never noticed it from in Jerboa, so I dunno if it or any other app can do it. But on mobile web it’s hidden behind the community’s sidebar. The sidebar can be accessed via an expando from the top of the community page, or under the post and the comment box, but above any comments, on a post page. The modlog link is right at the bottom of the sidebar.
Your instance’a mobile site should have a link at the bottom that says “modlog” unless it has some weird front end that isn’t the default.
It’s gonna be different depending how you access Lemmy, here it is on Thunder
my wife just went to help her estranged mother come home from the nursing home the hospital had put her in after her surgery. she said they tried to get her to sign her entire life away to united healthcare before releasing her, and probably would have if she hadn’t been there to stop it.
they wanted to milk her for everything they could, racking up massive medical bills by keeping her there, and then have her sign her life and possessions over to UHC to recoup expenses. when my wife took her home they said it was against medical advice, which allows them to deny coverage for the bills she incurred.
fucking vultures. free luigi.
This is clearly a case of terrorism and we need to send a message that we will not negotiate with terrorists. Give the current CEO the death penalty.
They need to stop murdering people.
Every story like this makes Luigi a bigger Hero.
No, it doesn’t. Because we all know Luigi is innocent.
Luigi wasn’t even in NY when that CEO got “audited.” Luigi was chilling at my place up here in Canada!
He’s a hero for standing up to the big guy after being falsely accused. Even more so as we realize what the prosecution is protecting.
My insurer just announced that the addiction counseling service that used to be provided for free to members is going away. Is addiction no longer a medical issue?
no addiction means you’re a drug addict and need to get deported trump assures united of this.
Are they going to be arrested and stand trial next to Luigi? No right? Yeah, totally fair and balanced government we have here. Fucking psychos.
"‘You have not tried all lower levels of care available in your area. You can learn to control your behaviors and stay at home. You can learn coping skills in your home. Your family can support you as you get treatment.’”
100% I believe they sent this to family… If addictions were so easy to manage we wouldn’t have all these addiction programs
It’s what Healthcare CEOs call Durable Savings.
The family premiums won’t go down with one less child, but costs are saved.
Win-win for shareholders!
Following the killing of Brian Thompson, Tim Noel replaced him as the CEO of UnitedHealthcare. Noel had previously served as the CEO of UnitedHealthcare’s Medicare & Retirement unit. The announcement came after Thompson was fatally shot in December.
Who’s Tim Noel? The new CEO of UnitedHealthcare.

While not the point of this thread, just wanted to note for anyone struggling, themselves or someone they care about, there are lots of resources for addiction out there. Many of them free.
A treatment center can be a safe place to get clean and gain some knowledge, but it is a lifelong struggle for most who have addiction issues. Going into a treatment center does not “cure” most.
Please seek out help, even if you do not have insurance or are unable to go to a treatment center.
