Summary
Reddit’s r/medicine moderators deleted a thread where doctors and users harshly criticized murdered UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.
Comments, including satirical rejections of insurance claims for gunshot wounds, targeted UHC’s reputation for denying care to boost profits.
Despite the removal, similar discussions continue, with medical professionals condemning UHC’s business practices under Thompson’s leadership, which a Senate report recently criticized for denying post-acute care.
Thompson, shot in what appears to be a targeted attack, led a company notorious for its high claim denial rates, fueling ongoing debates about corporate ethics in healthcare.
It’s fine if you want to play judge and jury, just try not to do it with someone’s life. Thanks.
My yin, if there’s anyone who’s deaths should be celebrated, it’s oligarchs. I think they should be stopped nonviolently and preferably legally, but guess what, they’ve removed all choices other than violence.
Oh fuck right off. This dude got off easy. Shot in the back, no fear, quickly passing out and passing on.
Compare that to the millions of people that suffered, not just died of preventable illness, but suffered, and so did their families. Some of them still suffering not only emotional debt but financial debt too.
You will never justify this stance, and you know it.
False bravado
Broken brain.
“Don’t be the judge jury and executioner”
We have tried time and time again to let the “legal system” figure this shit out, and time and time again, billionaires just pay their way out with fines or just postpone it indefinitely while they commit more crimes against humanity.
Idk if you get some kind of justification by being knowingly incorrect around of a bunch of other people, but we can all see through it. Be part of the solution or keep it to yourself.
He wasn’t a billionaire. I know it’s easy to just pretend that every CEO is Elon Musk, but in billions he was worth $0.04B. Elon Musk is on track to be worth 100,000x that.
If you think he was an Oligarch, you’re already doomed, because you don’t know who your real enemies are.
It’s honestly the same shit when you factor in the fact that most people are either in poverty or extremely close to it with a lot of those because of this dudes leadership.
You can make it look small by doing the .04B, you’re also missing his .02B (20M if you wanna do regular people numbers) in stock options, but that’s still an absolute fuck ton of money, and mixed with his decisions to willing fuck so many people over, I know he wasn’t a friend.
We’re only talking about publicly disclosed money here too.
Say that to the CEO of United Healthcare.
And that’s not up to you than him
Were you trying to say something?
Yes,if your strangled logic says that this guy plays judge and jury, it is exactly what you are doing.
I guess I could just repeat my question, but that would probably be pointless.
Looks like they had a stroke… hope they have good insurance 👀
Then what’s the correct way?
